Highlights:


-I hit a year!!!


-We were visiting people who had referred themselves and we found this guy in his yard and he told us that his wife had alziemers and how he loved taking care of her. Then he told us that he was baptized in his own church last year and wasn't interested but he asked if either of us were good at praying and I told him I thought I was pretty good and then he grabbed my companions and my hand and I prayed for him and his wife and after we said amen he was crying and talked about how God works in mysterious ways and he sent us there for him and he gave us a big hug and though we're not teaching him or anything it felt awesome to help him!!! 


-I had Zone Conference a while ago and I got to see a ton of my mission friends and we had a couple awesome talks on the spirit!!!! 


-We've been blessed with a ton of member meals recently and it's been awesome to get to know the Members in the Skowhegan Ward and relate to them on ways I never thought I could!!! This past week we had a meal with an older couple and the wife told us that her mom had gotten diagnosed with dementia and talked about some of her mannerisms and I was just flooded with Fond memories of my Grandma and her quirks. Then we each shared good memories with our relatives and it was just so amazing!!!!! 



Spiritual thought:

EPHESIANS 6!!!! That is one of my favorite chapters ever and if you haven't read it in a while I suggest you should read it again because I get new insights every time I read it!!!

I'm dreaming of a White January 8th

MISSION STATISTICS BOARD Name: Elder Peterson  Mission: New Hampshire, Manchester Current Location: North Brookfeild, Massachusetts  Current Companion: Elder Wilkow Current Transfer: 1/17 Week: 4/6 Total Weeks: 9/104 Address:  Reece Christopher Peterson  105 Wind Song Avenue Manchester, NH 03104 This week flew by!!!!!! I'm just gonna do a couple highlights to make it easier to read.  -This week we were knocking some doors and we weren't going to knock on this certain door because last time we knocked she didn't seem very excited that the missionaries were there but she told us to come back later. We ended up knocking and she was super receptive and very grateful for us she said that she asked her kids for a Bible for Christmas this year and they didn't get her one. So we ended up giving her a Bible and a book of Mormon and she said she's been looking for a church to go back to and it was just an amazing experience and we're going to keep teaching her!!!!...

We went to Chipotle in Worcester then we decided to go to the Bass Pro Shop before transfers since it's like 6 min away from the mission office. Me and my comp guessed that there would be maybe one companionship there but there were 6!!! We walked in and saw a big group of missionaries in the store!! And one of them told me I was going to love Plymouth and was kinda confused bc I didn't know him very much and then I looked to his left and it was my next comp!!! Elder Taylor!!!!!
