Dear Family,
So this week has NOT been one of the most amazing weeks of
my mission. I have been very, very
sick. But at least it wasn’t my stomach
giving me trouble. I’ve had body aches
and chills, like I did when I had meningitis…but I think it was just the
flu. We tried to get out and do
different things in spite of my being so sick…had some great meetings with
Rosie and she has set a baptism date for July 4th, which is so
exciting. Even though I’ve been coughing
up gross mucus, and have slept a lot, we’ve had some good teaching appointments
and a couple of dinner appointments, too.
Elder Dupont gave me a blessing and that helped, as well.
Wednesday was an especially hard day. I think when I’m sick it’s easier to feel
down and “abandoned.” All the more
reason why we need to work hard to keep our bodies healthy…so our minds and
spirits have a good environment to be in!
Sister Leavitt told me to go to the hospital, because things were
getting really bad, but I decided to wait until Thursday and see how things
were…and they were much improved. So I
didn’t go. We had a good morning of
working, came back to the apartment for lunch, and I passed out…until 6:00
p.m. I think the rest really
helped. We were able to go teach Rosie
again that evening, and it was great!
On Friday we volunteered, helping with the Relay For Life
event and we also did a lot of knocking and contacting.
And we have had some good lessons with Jeff. He is making some good changes in his life,
and it’s exciting to see his progress and growth. Great to be a missionary!!
Love,
Elder Hunt
P.S. Happy Birthday to Nat and to Hans!!!
