Week 93. Cloudberries are bomb

 Hey Everyone! This week was cool and so is the spiritual thought so I hope you enjoy it all

Transfers - staying for another!! Love this ward. Even though all the students are gone our activities are popping off because everyone is free now. So we'll keep going

Dinner/Institute - instead of a full on dinner, it's just snacks now. This week was honey butter and bread. Best thing ever. And class was on the beginning of Christianity and how it separated from Judaism. It was super cool and wye opening and we talked about the parable of the new bottles for the new wine and what that meant. 

Elliot - after institute we got to talk to Elliott again. He's a physicist and very intellectual and trying to investigate the gospel on his own. We asked him how it was going and he explained how he learned about babies not needing baptism. We expounded on that and taught him some of the plan of salvation and he seemed so surprised. We gave him a pamphlet and asked if we could teach him more, and he said maybe. So we'll see. He's lit tho and he came to basketball 

MS - Multiple Sclerosis group gave us a call and asked for some service with inventorying their event signs. I wish I asked them how many signs there were but we got it all done in an hour and thirty. We sped at the end and we got done on time. I was very proud

Cloudberry Jam - and then there were cloudberries. They are a Scandinavian fruit that is apparently good. So of course we had to try them. Bought the jam, had a lesson with Caitlin, who's family is Swedish and ate. It was delicious. And we also got to share Helaman 5 with her and finding strength through trials. It was good and we will continue to help her with her goal towards baptism 

Camille - was someone getting taught by missionaries for 4 years but had lost contact for no reason. So we reached back out, met her for boba and will hopefully be teaching her more because her understanding of our doctrine is not as large as it should be. She's cool tho, and loves the Bible and took a Book of Mormon

Spiritual thought - in the Old Testament the children of Israel were given the law of Moses. It was very particular and had a ton of extra laws that all the Jews had to keep. And it explains in Galatians 3:10-13 that the law was given to show the need for a Savior. That the old law could not be kept perfectly and that a Savior was needed to redeem us. If you're going through something right now, don't forget to invite Jesus to be with you and help you, cause that's what He promised to do and He will as long as you'll let Him. 

Love y'all here are pics
