Hello there!
This week had a few downs, but plenty of ups!
Elder Livingstone sadly had to go back to Canada because of his sickness last week. But, he was an absolute trooper the whole way and the Lord's got great plans for him. He's already getting better and sending us pics from back home.
Elder Charles and I have been holding up the fort so far in Hershey. We had a great lineup of lessons with people we recently found. For H., we taught some of the Plan of Salvation, and taught her just how much Christ can help us through his atonement.
We had a Bible study with a lady named V. who really wants to draw closer to Jesus Christ. We had a lesson plan set up to teach the commandments and how they draw us to him, but as the lesson drew closer, we felt prompted to scratch the plan and switch to a lesson on Prayer. As we started the meeting, we asked if she had any questions. She asked us to teach her more about prayer! I love how the spirit works and how important it is to listen to those gentle promptings, especially the first time.
Elder Charles and I switched nametags for Halloween. Gotta go dress up as somebody! We also prepped some candy with pass along cards for tricker-treaters, but sadly there were none of them in the area. Fun plan, though.
Here's a Halloween/fear themed scripture for you:
2 Timothy 1:7 - "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."
When the spirit of fear is haunting you, you can always pray for the Holy Ghost to bring you comfort and peace, regardless of the circumstances.
Hope you have a fantastic rest of your week!
Sincerely,
Elder Brown the elder
