The Work Never Stops!...

When you turn the front facing camera on....
Hello everyone!

So this week wasn't to eventful due to being sick so if it's not a super long email, forgive me!

Tuesday: April 26th, 2016
So just after things felt good about not being sick... It relapsed and it got hit harder than before with it Monday night and I was out for the count all day today.

Wednesday: April 27th, 2016
Today as well... Fever and huge headache... Just slept all day.

Thursday: April 28th, 2016
Today also... Same as Wednesday.

Friday: April 29th, 2016
Finally... Was able to do something. Wasn't 100%, but we planned and we saw a couple of people but took it easy relatively.

Saturday: April 30th, 2016
Finally... We were able to get some work done... However... My companion got sick and so again... We weren't able to do much other than a newsletter for the zone and a couple of visits to new investigators.

The cruise ship in the back was bigger
than anything I have ever seen before...

Sunday: May 1st, 2016
Barbecue Time!
Fast and testimony meeting and I felt encouraged to bear testimony to the youth of the church about who they are and what their role is and what God expects of them. It was amazing and it felt good afterward. We then had a barbecue with some of our Romanian investigators and man! Did it feel good to have a barbecue in the sun with a ton of pork and chicken! 

So yeah... Not the most exciting week but it still was good. Although we were stuck being sick, the Lord still provided opportunities to teach others and also find new people through the ones we were already teaching. The Lord is mindful of His servants for sure and although they are sick and bed bound... He allows them to have some work to get done because even He knows how important it is for the work to always be moving, even when His servants aren't 100%.

Verse of the Week:
1 Nephi 9:6
"But the Lord knoweth all things from the beginning; wherefore, he prepareth a way to accomplish all his works among the children of men; for behold, he hath all power unto the fulfilling of all his words. And thus it is. Amen."
