This week I felt really close to home specifically my home country.
At the beginning of the week I was really struggling with the work here in Ingram Mill. I felt really unmotivated to work and we did not have very many appointments at all which cause us to be in our apartment a lot or the church building. That was tough. I began to get ancy and just wanted to get out somewhere. Elder Jacks and I did drive around our area and identified some parks, coffee shops and a library where we could do our study so we can be around more people! We also called a ton of members and scheduled some visits for this week so that will be really nice!
We had some training in Bentonville by the temple this week and that is when I felt close to Canada. Two of my missionary friend flew out to Canada (their original assignments) that morning. I was so happy for them to be able to go to their original call! While I was at the training I talked to a missionary who knew my cousins, the Halls from BC! Such a small world! Than I talked to a missionary from Arizona who played hockey and that made me really excited because I love that sport!! Finally the cherry on top, a elder I talked to said he was from Calgary Alberta! I was so surprised! Another missionary from Canada serving in Canada! I was so happy to meet another person from Canada let alone the same province! It was a tender mercy from the Lord that really helped me see just how much He is aware of me. He knew I was having a rough time with my missionary work so He sent me some love. It was pretty amazing.
Hope you all are doing well! Love you all! Elder Spencer
