Hello Everyone!
That's all for now folks! Have a wonderful week! Find someone to serve!!
This week was full of many service opportunities and lots of meetings! On Tuesday, we went to help a young married couple prepare their house for a big move they are going to make at the end of this month up to Minnesota! We were there for hours cleaning. It was quite the experience. There was a whole lot of mold, cat hair, and dirty dishes and clothes involved, but it was all worth it. I love this young lady so much, and we want to help her out as much as we can. Love trumps all.
Wednesday we had a service project cleaning someone's yard and yet another incredible day in Eastman. There is a particular apartment complex we have spent almost two full days in during the last week. Seeing how we only get to go to Eastman twice a week, that says something. Every way we turned, we ran into someone who was ready for the gospel. If you are being obedient and trying your hardest, the Lord will put those you need to talk to in your path. Realizing this makes me hope I have not missed any previous opportunities the Lord gave me to strengthen someone. Our life is our mission.
Friday was our "Greenie" conference. One of the most important things I was reminded of was that our attitude means everything. No matter what you are doing in life, I promise that it is what you make it. WE decide what our success will be the second we get out of bed. It was a neat experience, and it was great to see some 'old' mission friends. :) That night we got home to a pretty toasty apartment. Actually, it was the hottest place I have ever been in and it smelled like fire. Turns out our AC unit blew out and we had a bit of an adventure that night. In the end, we are all safe and sound.
Saturday finished off our service projects as we set up for a wedding reception. While decorating, we had a chance to talk with family members of the couple who were not members of our church. It was wonderful to build relationships with them and hopefully bring them closer to Christ. :)
