Oh hey, welcome back to another week in the life of Elder Griffiths. This week was kinda crazy so I mean let’s get started.
Monday: pday was so valid! We had extended pday so we had our activity around 6 pm. The plan was to watch the “Restoration” movie at the Institute but we started playing a game of Signs and it never stopped! I’ve never seen a zone bond so fast over a game in my life! Zone unity is going crazy right now.
Tuesday: I woke up and had interviews with. “The one and only…. President Galotera. Love that man! The rest of the day we didn’t too much so let’s not waste our time here.
Wednesday: I had to lead the my first zone council and it was pretty alright… I was trying to be hype and the zone was bugging tbh. But overall it was good! After, Elder Saunders and I went on exchanges!! If you remember, Elder Saunder and I are homiesss! Seriously one of, if not my best friend in the mission! We had A LOT to catch up on and we definitely did. Got some Chipolata for lunch and just chatted and chatted all day long. Ahhh I missed that.
Thursday: Exchange day with Elder Tokelau! He is from Provo and he is a dawg. We bonded super good and had a ton of fun. We taught some lessons but we also had a lot of lessons canceled on us. So that was tough. Tokelau is a clown and we had a good pillow talk that night. Iykyk.
Friday: Exchange day with the AP!! I got to go over to Long Beach and be in the YSA for a day! It was a blast! Elder Stebbing is a dawg and it was a good time. We found like 4 people and had some crazy cool miracles. In the YSA they have a volleyball night so we went to that and played 2 hours of volleyball to end the night. I also got my wart frozen off again earlier in the day so playing volleyball was pretty tough. I’m not going to lie.
Saturday: Back with Elder Connel and it was pretty good. I forgot my fanny pack, so we drove back to Long Beach and snuck through their apartment to snag it. We did some findings for the whole day and taught a couple of lessons.
Sunday: Slowww day! Holy crap I thought the day would never end. Church was good we had a couple of friends come. Then a whole lot of nothing. We planned zone council for next week with the STLS at night but that’s about it.
Our friends are doing pretty good! No major updates with any of them so I’ll hopefully have a good update next week!
This week I was saved by the exchanges I had! All the missionaries I spent time with all carry the spirit differently, but strong. I realized how important it is to surround yourself with people who bring the spirit with them. I have been blessed to have great friends growing up who were worthy to have the Holy Ghost with them. I have loved being on the mission surrounded by the spirit of the people I serve with.
Love you all so much! Have a great week! I’d love to hear from you!
