Morning everyone!
So we are kind of in quarantine which has been a grind. We had a misisonary conference on tuesday downtown Calgary and someone got their positive test results for covid while there! Why they were there awaiting results? Who knows! They thought they were negative lol. So after that we were locked down and tested.
The huge pro to that is we accidentally signed up for the downtown Calgary testing centre so I drove through downtown right at night! I got an inconclusive test, so we went again the next day to a different but still downtownish testing centre. We were both negative but the mission to play it safe wants all quarantining because of "close contact". But we werent legally close contact, so we are going loose quarantine.
That's meant lots of zoom calls, no chnage of scenery, and lots of card games!! Weve been grinding those.
But the work doesnt stop! We had a great missionary work training with all our members in which in prep we brainstormed a huge resource list so now members have lots of direction! I also posted the picture of the owl I saw at our house last week onto an Alberta bird group. It got... 2.5 k reactions, 336 comments and 58 shares! And I was able to start talking to like 10 people! So facebook work has been fun!
We also got blue light glasses cause we have mad tech headaches and I wear pajama pants all day w a suit top.
I've been studying humility lately and have actually had a lot of realizations. How it's more about having a correct understanding of God's identity than it is us vs others. If we have that correct, all else will fall into place. I've also realized it comes down to 2 words: TRUST and ACKNOWLEDGE. The truly humble can do those two things in all circumstances and that's really the goal. And if we truly understand and know who God is, we can better do those things! I struggle more with those two things than I thought honestly. I struggle to trust and acknowledge gods plan is best. So that's why I work on it!
I got through this week thanks to heavenly father and I trust this is his work. Our lack of "success" is part of his plan and I trust as we keep working, we will see success, whatever that means he gives us.
Have a great week everyone!
Love,
Elder Fiore
