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!!!
