Hey everybody! This has been another exciting week of being a missionary in quarantine! I hope everything is going good for you all and that you had a blessed Easter weekend!
Here's a quick run through of the week:
Monday we got to hang out with the Polaris Elders again for P day. We just hung out in our apartment and played games and grilled up some chicken. It was pretty fun, those elders are a hoot!
Tuesday we had District leader training for Elder Erickson with the Zone leaders. That went by pretty fast and we had some fun. After that we did a training visit and I went with Elder Bosworth for the night. That night we went over to the park and threw the frisbee for a little while and then we had a miracle!
Wednesday I spent the morning with Elder Bosworth and we just talked for a while until we met back up with Elder Holmes and Erickson and switched back. Nothing else really happened that day.
Thursday was another slow going day where nothing happened.
Friday we had our Zone call and our zone got roasted by President. Apparently we are getting the least referrals in the mission and we SUCK at contacting said referrals. It's all good though, we're hopefully going to be doing better. The worldwide fast kicked my butt. It was so hard for some odd reason! I woke up and felt like I was starving! I survived and completed my fast which was awesome!
Saturday we didn't really do much again. We just were in the apartment trying to stay busy.
Sunday was by far the best day of the week! President Stratford allowed everyone to get with 1 other companionship for 4 hours to celebrate Easter. Since there are 3 companionships of elders in our district, President let all of us celebrate together. So we had us, the Zone leaders, and the Assistants at our apartment for Easter. We had the sacrament together and then grilled up some steak and cooked up a bunch of good food for dinner. That was some of the best food ever! I'm just counting this as the funny moment of the week because of all the funny videos and jokes that we told after we ate. This was a very needed and refreshing day to have during the quarantine!
Miracle of the week:
While me and Elder Bosworth were throwing the frisbee we decided to go for a lap around the pond that was right next to us. As we start walking around a guy sees us and runs up with us and says, "Oh my gosh! How are you Elders doing? Walk with me!" So we are walking around with him and he tells us how he has been less active for a year now and has been debating on getting active again. When we were about to leave he told us how he doesn't believe in coincidences and how we both were supposed to meet and talk with each other. We bore our testimonies of the church and the Book of Mormon and left him with a challenge to do a 21 day BoM challenge to strengthen his testimony. It was such a miracle to run into him and help him with his testimony. There are still miracles our there everybody! You just have to find them!
Love,
Elder Bohn
