The Spokane Word... from Elder Willis: The First Wave

May the 4th dress ups.
Pretty cool, just saw the while working and had to get a picture

Last week I spoke about how the mission will soon be flooded with more missionaries than we can handle. That very day we got 17 more missionaries. And next week it will happen again and who knows when it happens after that. We are going to be overwhelmed!

Wow things are going great.

We have been experimenting on some of the lessons we have been having with the members.

One of the things we have been trying are Role plays. We try to teach the members how to share the gospel with their friends. Each time we challenge them to find us one person to teach before the week is done. So far we have not had any success, but soon we hope we will start getting referrals from the members.

There is this new inspirational message the church has made. It is about 15 minutes and is very symbolic. There is a message about not being complacent. There is one about listening to warnings, having faith and trusting in our Savior.

When you get the chance go ahead and watch it. It is a nice video.

Went on another hike today.

Happy Mothers Day, by the way!

If I were older and had gone on my mission sooner yesterday would have been one of the 2 times I would get to call my family per year. I am very thankful for the opportunity to call my family twice a week now. The virus has made it unbearable for some missionaries, so our mission president lets us call on Mondays and Fridays.

Just one more week until transfers, but I fully expect to stay right here. It really depends on Heavenly Father though.
