It has been a spectacular and wild week!
I really enjoyed the last couple days with
Elder Thompson; he is a great missionary and truly one of my best friends and I
am so excited for him to be down in Lawton! I've absolutely loved having Elder
Dean here in the mix. His love, and passion, and powerful spirit, and humility,
and humor are definitely to be enjoyed and admired and I already know I am
going to learn so much from him as I have already done this last week.
Elder Stevens got emergency transferred Sunday
night to another area:( There is a missionary going home for medical purposes
and President called us to pull Elder Stevens because we were the only trio in
the mission. I was so sad and will miss him a lot but I loved being his
friend and companion and learned a lot from him and I am excited for him!
We've been staying busy and the area is
really beginning to really picking up again which is so exciting for me to
see and be a part of. We have a great vision for this transfer and have been in
the closest communication with the ward leaders that missionaries have ever
been with them and because of that we are about to see so many more miraculous
events and conversions about to take place. We love these members and will give
and do anything to help them to succeed and bring their friends the joy and
blessings of temporality and eternity, both. Missionary work is the greatest
work to be engaged in!
I really enjoyed our Zone Conference
and meetings yesterday and found it to be of incredibly great value. I
feel as though I received a lot of personal revelation throughout the meetings
and I learned so much and really appreciated and loved the opportunity to be
interviewed personally by Elder Sitati, of the First Quorum of the
Seventy, after it all. What a spiritually uplifting and confirming day to
be with a general authority, having such great spiritual depth and capacity and
love. He and his wife both have such a special spirit about them and I was honored
and privileged to be able to talk with Sister Sitati after the meetings and be
personally interviewed by Elder Sitati.
Keep the faith,
Elder Ricks
Life is so good!!:)
I love you all and hope you have a
wonderful Thanksgiving. Please be safe. You are in my heart and prayers.
