Hey yall! Hope yall had a great week! It was a great week and some pretty cool things happened! Here's what happened:
Highlights:
-Transfers went smooth, and Elder Solomon arrived with no problems!
-This week was mostly showing Elder Solomon the ropes, introducing him to the members, and our friends!
-Potlatch on Saturday Night!
-We
ran into some members who were visiting from Colorado! One of them
served here in the Canada Vancouver Mission, and was actually the first
missionary to ever open up Burns Lake by Prince George! Super cool to
run into them!
-Service Ad Miracle!
Lowlights:
-I was sick all day Monday, but am feeling better today!
The
Potlatch: We were invited to come to a Potlatch in Masset on Saturday. A
Haida clan was inaugurating a new Chief, and they had this whole
celebration. It was super cool to see! They had lots of food, dancing,
and drum circles! We got to see a few members, and friends of ours!
Unfortunately I couldn't take any pictures because they asked us not to.
Service
Ad Miracle: Sunday Night, I posted a service ad to see if we could help
some more people in the community, and the next morning, it absolutely
exploded, even though I was sick, I was able to set up 10 service
projects, get LOTS of positive response, and the craziest thing is
someone randomly reach out to me, saying that they had a place available
to rent! The reason why that's crazy is because here on Haida Gwaii we
currently are staying in an Airbnb until we can find a place to rent. So
far we haven't had the greatest luck. But this person, Danielle,
reached out to me personally about this place, because in the past,
missionaries brought her a Bible in Prince Rupert and she and her
daughter have been loving it! We were talking, and it turns out that I
was that missionary that dropped off the Bible! Super cool, and now we
might have place that will ensure missionaries will stay on Haida Gwaii
long term!
Anyways, that's all for this week! But I do have some news:
In
two weeks, our zone will be traveling all the way to Prince George for a
combined Zone Conference. We will be driving there, and it will be a
combined 5 day trip. So stay tuned for that!
Have a great week yall!
Haawa!
