Welcome back to the Weekly
Some things that happened/some things I learned this week:
- Nice chihuahuas do indeed exist, blew my mind.
- my comp is 6'6 and a beast at basketball so we played some street games and got some numbers.
- the hood respects the missionaries more than any rich neighborhood I've ever been in.
- had my first meeting with my mission president, he and his wife ride pivots
So
here we are trying to contact people in a park before a lesson and we
are having no luck, literally no one would give us the time of day and
our goal of getting 3 phone numbers did not look good. So we made our
way over to a park bench to prepare for our lesson and I realized I
forgot my Bible in the car and I thought, well this is the last chance
to make it happen and we only had 5 more minutes to get the Bible,
contact 5 people, and get this lesson setup. By a freaking miracle we
got 3 numbers and 2 of them were down for a Bible study and planned an
RA for us, we had our lesson and it was just one big miracle. 
Spiritual thought from Branch Conference: aka my notes
1st) I invite you to see miracles, large AND small.
^ ask yourself are your eyes open wide enough?
2nd) listen and associate with those who will help build your faith.
^ you know people are trying to destroy others faith, both inside and outside the church.
3rd) Look outside yourself.
^
One man wrapped up inside himself makes a small package, look for those
that you can include or uplift and it will become much much larger.
4th) Create a personal goal of sharing the gospel.
^ ex: share a gospel principle with 2 people each week.
5th) Actively participate in the CFM Study for this year and the next and the one after.
6th) Ask Heavenly Father to Strengthen your testimony of the ongoing restoration and of the prophet Joseph Smith.
7th) Use your Agency and actively participate in the Doctrine of Christ.
^ Truly shun ungodly things.
Enjoy your week, Love Elder Clark
