Hello there!
Wooo, it's been a busy and super fun week! So this past Wednesday, the Instagram app vanished from our phones all over the mission. After a bit of digging, we learned this was a permanent change since Instagram hadn't really been working as a finding tool in missionary work. However, through a couple miscommunications, our mission hadn't been notified of the change.
Thankfully as the Social Media Coordinators, we were scheduled to give a mission wide training that Friday, so we were able to inform the mission about some changes, as well as help them get other forms of contact from their Instagram friends. That and other changes have been keeping us pretty busy, but we still had time to do some good work this past week.
J is doing well and keeping most commitments, but he's mainly meeting for educational purposes, so our main goal this week will be to try and help him feel the spirit and importance of real intent.
A is doing great in the Book of Mormon still. The Tree of Life Book of Mormon Video was helpful I think to visualize that. Right now, we're helping him recognize the spirit, how he feels it and when he feels it.
Come Follow Me was pretty fun this past week, and not just with the death of the fat king Eglon, lol. (Judges 3) One thing I find important from the story of Samson is that his covenant was simple and easy to keep, but because of the people he decided to stay around, it became a lot more difficult. We all have the chance to choose our priorities in life, and we can choose to find people with those same priorities. If our greatest priority is keeping God in our life, we'll strive to do so and find others who can strengthen us on our mortal journey.
Hope you all have a great week!
Sincerely,
Elder Brown the Elder
