We were all able to Skype with Jacob yesterday! It was great "being together" and seeing his smiling face. Things are going well as he finishes his last three months in Oregon!
The
week here in general was good. It was kind of a slow week. We had an exchange
this week with the Zone Leaders, which went really well. I was with Elder
McElreath.
When he first came into the mission, I was his Zone Leader in
Keizer. He has come a long way. He is very loving and so it was good to be with
him and be able to talk with him. Our exchange was really good. We had a really
powerful lesson when we first started the exchange. We were teaching one of
their investigators who has been struggling off and on but overall is doing
well. The members in the ward did a really good job at the lesson bearing
testimony and inviting the Spirit. We invited her to be baptized, but she
didn’t feel like she could. Then the Spirit helped us remember a scripture to
share with her and it was the perfect scripture for her. Her whole demeanor
changed and she accepted the invitation. That was pretty cool!
This
week we are heading out to Newberg on Thursday for a mission tour. Elder
Whiting of the 70 is coming to visit the mission. It will be really good to be
able to participate in that. It will be fun being in Newberg as well.
