Elder Phillips and Conference...
This week was super awesome! First off General Conference was incredible! There was so much inspired council given during those two days! And then all those announcements were pretty crazy. Especially that Layton Utah temple, did not see that one coming. My favorite talk was probably Elder Bednar's talk on being meek. So many awesome talks tho.
So it's my first week with Elder Phillips. He's a way cool guy! He is from Lyman Wyoming, which is like 30 min away from Evanston, and he was pretty big into dirt biking back home.
This week we started doing the new member lessons with Don and Kathy. They are still doing awesome! Don is pretty hesitant to get the Aaronic priesthood, I thought he would be excited to get it, but he feels like he doesn't know enough to get it. We'll continue to work with him tho.
We had a solid lesson with Amber and Brandon too this week. We taught the Restoration and it really resonated with Brandon. He said that it all feels like stuff he already believed and now that we are teaching it it just makes sense to him. We are hoping they will begin to progress quicker now!
Everyone else we are continue to work with, but not a whole lot of progress yet.
Love you guys hope you all had a happy Easter! Thanks for the packages, I got one from Mom and Dad and one From Grandma and Grandpa and they were both awesome!! Thank you very much, and the snack selection was super awesome, that box was loaded, haha, Thanks!
Love,
Elder Shields
