That time it was a good week!

First things first, one of the people I helped way back in the day, like December of 2017 received the Melchizedek priesthood and was just set apart to be the second counselor in our branch presidency! And he's deaf blind! I love Joel, he is so great! That was nice for Elder Camillo Gois and I to see someone I helped who has progressed so much!
Then we found 3 new friends this week! It was a great relief because since transfers almost nothing has happened in this area but we found a whole family that we will meet with! It was great! Shout out to our branch president for helping out a ton! 
This week we had many meetings, we had 2 zone conferences to go to because they split Lynnwood and Shoreline stakes, and Elder Lund and I are over both, as well as meetings with stake presidents and stuff so lots of meetings but they were good. We focused in our zone conferences about becoming more like Jesus Christ and making him the center of our lives. It was fantastic! I love serving with such superb missionaries in this area! 
Nother highlight from this week was a car fast, yup you heard it, we didn't drive our car! It was actually a really great day! We didn't find any new deaf people but it feels good to just hit the streets and talk to people. But we did learn more about the area we do a lot of work in, Lynnwood and I feel more prepared to receive revelation on where Heavenly Father's deaf children live in this part of Washington. 
I love being a missionary, this is truly the work of the Almighty God and He guides us every day to help his children. There is no doubt in my ind that the Book of Mormon is the word of God. I've learned a lot recently about the Atonement of Jesus Christ. It is real and it cleanses us. Keep working and trying, it is worth it to work.
Love ya!
