Hi! Guess what! Good news! We're getting mail tomorrow, and the
zone leaders told me I have 10 or so, so for some reason, it's
all coming tomorrow! So that's good. I'll tell y'all if I got
everything.
Bethany's schedule sounds sweet! Keith and Mrs. Guy, she should be super happy about that.
Ok! Sorry I don't have too much time, we need to get back out to
our ward party. We already were 'peeling corn on the cob'? Please help
me. I don't know what to call that. But we were doing that for about an
hour, and now we're going to go eat it, and hopefully some investigators
are coming.
So I'll try to inform you: Pdays we usually study till 10:30, then
we go and do emails, and then shopping for groceries and things like
that, then we usually come back to the 'appartment' and write our
letters or read some more hah, the boring people that we are. But I love
it. But! Today we're all going to hiking Mont Saint-Hilaire as a zone,
so that's going to be fun. But then Pdays end at 6, so then we head out
and go tract or do passbys or have lessons. So it's some of the fastest
hours I experience every single week, but it's good.
One little thing yesterday that I was thinking about, was my desire
to serve. I've noticed that as some described before as the
'addrenaline' running out after the first few weeks, and then you just
have to get down to it hah. So yeah, definitely. But then yesterday,
before sacrament meeting, I was trying to go around and talk to people,
and just trying to give them a good handshake with a smile (because a
lot of times I ask them how they're doing, and I have no idea what they
say back) and it was so awesome! It was just because of a little change
that I made which made that so worth while. I just wanted to make
someone else feel better, and it first made it easier to get up and do
something like that, and second, it makes me feel so much better. I
guess that's basically what Mom and Dad and the prophets and everyone's
been trying to teach me for the last 19 7/8 years, but hey! It was cool
to experience it a little on my own. So I'm trying to work on that. I
want to study Moroni 7 and develop more of the charity of Christ, in
order to be able to help people more. Because even though I can't have
much of a conversation with people, I can still say nice things, and
then smile when they respond with whatever they say.
So! All is well, All is well! This ward is awesome. We had a dinner
appointment last night and had Cabbage cigars for dinner, which was
awesome. There's really a difference even every single day when a member
of the ward does something for us, or offers to help in some way. It's
awesome.
But sorry! Got to go. Love you guys. I'm excited to get the mail
tomorrow, I'll try to write better next week. Tell Grandpa Myres I love
working, I know that'll make him happy.
Au revoir,
your Elder Murphy
