Elder Bryce Thompson: 11/4/2024 Week 43-The Lord is hastening his work!

Hey, I finally did something different for pday!! We went to the temple in the morning and were able to do an Endowment session! And then we went over to the Velez's and did a couple projects using their laser engraver!! Made a Book of Mormon belt buckle hehehe! Then after that, I learned how to play Magic the Gathering, brother Velez gave us each a deck so now we've played every night since!!

Wednesday we got to travel up to Benbrook to administer to a sweet lady who wasn't doing too well. Her name is Erin Thompson so that was a cool connection!! Before that though, I got to stop by and see Marren!!! Instantly made my day 10x better! We then had lunch at my former Bishop's house! Also cool miracle! We were stopping by to visit one of our friends and well she wasn't home :( but her son was so we started talking to him about Jesus and the Book of Mormon like usual and then he told us he wants to be baptized!?!?! So we told him we could help him with that! And now he's preparing to be baptized on November 30th!! Oh, and my best friend Brody opened his mission call and he is going to the Washington Everett Mission "speaking" ASL. Anyway just thought I'd throw that shoutout in there. Congrats Brody!!!

Thursday was pretty sweet! Had three amazing lessons and it was Halloween. because of that we went in early and played Magic!!

Friday we got to give back up to Benbrook one last time except this time it was with Elder Baker my greenie and his greenie!!! It's pretty cool to see how goated of a missionary Elder Baker has become!! Anyway, we had a cool lesson with our friend Erin and now she is preparing for baptism on Nov 30th. She'll be baptized into my last ward so that's really fun 😁.

Saturday... a simple move turned into an 8-hour long move 😭. That's all that happened. We did find someone that day so that was cool!!

Ok so absolute miracle-filled Sunday! Started off with church, partook of the sacrament, great way to start the day. For second hour I got to teach a gospel basics class with a group size of 7! It was so crazy the amount of friends that came to church!! Anyway it was so fun, talked about bits of come follow me and then a lot about prophets. I thought the class went well!! I also did not know how much I liked teaching 😁. Maybe I will be a teacher when I grow up... just kidding they don't make any real money 🙃. Ok so then we had an awesome lesson with Syncere who is on date for this Saturday!! Then we had a lesson with our new friend Shaq who reached out to us the night prior. It was a crazy amazing lesson!!!! The spirit was sooo strong! Well so now he's preparing to be baptized December 7th!! This isn't the end if the day?? That evening we had a lesson with Sara and Noah. And that was such an amazing lesson!! The spirit again was soooooo strong and now Sara is preparing to be baptized December 21st!!!! Anyway that was Sunday, insanely spirit filled. The lessons with Shaq and Sara weren't planned 24hrs prior, so it just goes to show you that they really were miracles!!!
