Where the Blackberry Bushes Grow...

Haawa! Hope yall had a great week. Again, another unusual P-day. We had another funeral to attend to and help with. Sorry for the delay.


It was a great week! A great week to end off the transfer.

This will be a shorter email because its only been like 5 days haha.

To start out, here's transfer news....
I will be staying in Skidegate, on Haida Gwaii! But I am getting a new companion. My new companion is Elder Solomon! He is from New Zealand, and an incredible missionary! Its gonna be a great transfer with him! Sad to say goodbye to Elder Evans though! Best of luck to him in Richmond!

Anyways, here's what happened this week:

Highlights:
-Exchange with Elder Magno!
-We had our first official lesson with our friend Sid who is a Haida Cheif! It went super good!
-Hospital Days! A fun little festival in Daajing Giids! Good hot dogs, and lots of great interactions!
-Picking Blackberrys with Sister Malesku! She is one of our few members, but she is a ton of fun! She has so many blackberry bushes, and we were able to help her pick a bunch of them.
-Zoom actually kinda worked for church! 3 time's the charm! Wonderful talks in Prince Rupert, and a wonderful discussion with our little group!
-Sandspit! We were able to go over to Sandspit on Monday and help a lady stack some wood. It was a great service and interaction!
-Funeral in Skidegate. Our friend Mary Unfortunately lost her daughter this last week, and she invited us to attend her funeral service. It was a wonderful service, and we were able to help at each step of the event. And people really noticed our help, and were very warm and grateful for our service. Death is hard, but the wonderful Atonement of Jesus Christ, can help mend and heal broken families and hearts.

Here's a little miracle we had this week:
-While in Sandspit, we stopped by the golf course to see if the clubhouse was open to talk to some people. We had a tight schedule and a ferry to catch in 15 minutes, so we decided to stay in our service clothes. But when we arrived, both me and Elder Evans felt like we needed to be in church clothes. So we quickly changed and went in. Unfortunately the clubhouse was closed, but we did see some people who immediately recognized us from the distance. We heard them say "its the missionaries". They weren't interested, but they did recognize us for who we are: representatives of Jesus Christ. A cool little miracle. Obedience brings blessings!

Anyways, that's all for this week! I hope yall have a fantastic week! Take care! 

Haawa!
