Cooking On Their Dome Mon, Jan 9, 2023

 This week was pretty epic, we grinded out the finding! Like hours and hours of tracting it was epic! 😎 anyways here's some cool stuff for you!


MIRACLES/TMOTLS:

Cooking On Their Dome:
On Tuesday after ZC we went on an exchange with out zone leaders and it was honestly so epic. Wednesday was the real epic day because we pretty much tracted from 1 to about 7:30 (I'm sure all the missionaries who served before Covid think that thats kinda rookie numbers, but believe me covid changed some stuff) and it was epic! As my Zone leader would say we were cooking! We found a super epic door approach and people were so open to it. But the end of the night we had made (or it was more the spirit and not us) three people cry! It was so epic! Like I'm not kidding when I say this was one of the most epic days of my mission! 

UPDATES:

Mike: he's doing awesome, he's almost finished with the Book of Mormon videos and really loves them. He's out of town this week which is sad but we're going to meet with him as soon as he gets back! Please pray that we can get him to church soon. 

Nicole: were meeting her tomorrow and hopefully that'll go well. Elder Johnston called her on the exchange and she apparently said yes she would like to be baptised 😎 please pray for her too! 

SPIRITUAL THOUGHT:

I've been thinking alot about a word, it's a very simple word but it's honestly one of the most important words I know and that word is Hope. Hope is dope. Why is Hope dope? Because if we have Hope we can come off conquer of all things here's just some cool Scriptures about Hope!

2 Nephi 31:20
Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.

Ether 12:4
Wherefore, whoso believeth in God might with surety hope for a better world, yea, even a place at the right hand of God, which hope cometh of faith, maketh an anchor to the souls of men, which would make them sure and steadfast, always abounding in good works, being led to glorify God.

I love the imagery of Hope being an anchor! So this week I want you all to anchor yourselves a little more and start growing your hope! I promise as you do you will feel the promise in Ether and that hope will become an anchor and despite the storms of life you can stay grounded.

That's all for this week folks. Love you all! Remember to keep fighting that good fight! I would love to heat from some of you too 😎

 That's right folks, only four days left till I enter the field and I couldn't be more pumped. I am gonna miss my freaking awesome district though, no cap. but there's actually a few stories from this week so buckle up folks this email might be the longest one yet, a whole two paragraphs. Kickball: On Friday we played kickball with another district who was in our residency building just across the hall from us and it was tons of fun, but we lost miserably by like fifteen points. But I still had tons of fun. After the game the Elders from the district we played with came to give us a box of donuts to say sorry for absolutely destroying you, and in the box there was a single, solitary "L" shaped donut, it was a very well done prank. District scripture share: Saturday we got together as a district and shared our favorite scriptures and everyone shared really awesome scriptures that definitely made me feel the spirit. I shared D&C 122 5-8 and even...

  Henlo everyone this week was pretty cool and Good I'd say. We had some pretty dope miracles met with most of our friends, planning on putting some people on date this next week...so like things are on the up and up over here! Here's some stuff MIRACLES: First Floor Last Door: We went knocking right before a lesson at this one apartment complex that was really close to the lesson and holy smokes   so we were knocking and kinda had a rough start but we knock on this one guys door, his name is Terry. We asked if he'd wanna hear a message and he was like "sure" so like usual we checked to see if we heard him right and then taught the restoration to him, gave him a Book of Mormon, asked if we could come back and he said yes. So were going back on Saturday! Please be praying for Terry!!  Second Floor Last Door: Well in the same building we went to the second floor and started knocking the doors there didn't have much success until the last door!

First p day

Hey everyone well it's only been three days but it feels like a lot has happened in just those three days, I met my district and comp and they're all really awesome people! My companion is Elder Kennedy and he is super chill. I can't wait to meet everyone in person though when I go to the Provo MTC this Wednesday, because right now it still feels kind of weird being at home even though I've been set apart as a missionary, I don't know quite how to explain it but it feels very surreal. Monday it felt like I was almost dreaming, because I've been anxiously waiting for this day to finally come for like a long time and now that it's here it feels so weird.  I know God loves you all and that He can help us through any trials we're facing, he's helped me a lot adjusting to missionary life! I invite you all to read D&C 121: 7-8 because they are really awesome verses that have helped me a ton this week. Anyways love you all.  -Elder Roberts
