93 Days Left

 Hi everyone!

   Not gonna lie, this week was just a blur. It went by super quick and nothing huge or major happened. Which isn't a bad thing but also not super great for an email. But we'll piece together some things and see what comes from it.

Two very, very exciting news:
   1st, Chelsea came to church and brought her little daughter Indiana, and then Kay also came to church and brought her daughter Zannie. So Indiana and Zanny went to primary together and had a blast. Zannie is literally my favorite. One day we were having a lesson with Kay and Zannie walked through the gate all mad because her brother left her at school. Kay tried to talk to her, but she just stomped her way inside. Then she saw us, she ran up yelling "The Jesus People!" She was so excited. She was telling us all the videos she has watched on gospel library. 
It was such a miracle to have them come to church, as well as Chelsea and Indiana.

   2nd exciting news, Tommy and Michelle are in Palmerston for the week! For those who don't know, Tommy and Michelle are from Maningrida. They are two of my favorites (don't tell the other members) and honestly it was a big answer to my prayers. Maningrida is a very special place and since being back to Palmerston I've just been missing it and the people there. So I was very happy to find out they are staying a 45 second bike ride from our flat. So of course we visited them. We had a great lesson with them and Betty, who is an extremely sarcastic old Aboriginal lady. So all things said, it was an amazing visit and I left being so happy. 

   Something unfortunate this week was we went door knocking and of course locked the bikes, but when we came back someone stole one of our bike tires. Who steals someone's tire?! So the senior couple came to get the bikes to get a new tire, and so we walked 30 minutes to our next appointment. It was with Nancy, Dwayne, Stacy and their family. It was a good lesson and the senior couple was able to drop off the bikes to us. But again, who steals a single tire off a bike? 

   Later in the week we had zone conference which was pretty good. It was just like our MLC meeting with the things President brought up and the things we practice. But still good, can't complain.

Spiritual Thought:
Helaman 14:29-30
"29 And this to the intent that whosoever will believe might be saved, and that whosoever will not believe, a righteous judgment might come upon them; and also if they are condemned they bring upon themselves their own condemnation. 

30 And now remember, remember, my brethren, that whosoever perisheth, perisheth unto himself; and whosoever doeth iniquity, doeth it unto himself; for behold, ye are free; ye are permitted to act for yourselves; for behold, God hath given unto you a knowledge and he hath made you free."

   Well now is time to lose in Ping-Pong and eat KFC. I love you all and hope you have a great week.
