Oh man, so today was the official "De-Junk Day." All the missionaries in the Maryland Baltimore Mission were advised that we needed to clean our Apts from top to bottom. Oh, did I spend the majority of the day murmuring and complaining. I felt like Laman and Lamuel. I was like ughhh we just dont have enough time we only have one day to do all that we need to do and now were just spending it on cleaning... blah blah blah. My companion is just great she really keeps me in line. She just stayed positive partially bc she loves to clean. It's not that i hate cleaning but when there are things that need to be done the last thing i wanna do is clean. Anyways to make a long story short i sucked it up and cleaned my apt and what do you know the Lord provided a way for me to accomplish all the things I NEEDED to do, but not WANTED to do. He continues to show me that this is His work and His glory and what He says goes. I just have to learn that. On the other hand the work is going great we have a nice size teaching pool and people are just working hard to change their lives and so are we in the process. We can't call people to repentance if we're not right. Each and everyday we try to be better than the day before working harder and harder. I for sure feel like Daniel (im sorry Elder Naseath now) the harder you work the more tired you become. I'll say it every update. The work is tough but extremely awesome! I love it!

  1. Sister Norris,

    This is Bishop Richardson. Greetings from the Dallas 5th Ward! I hope that you are doing well and seeing the blessings of missionary service. We're somehow muddling through without you around. It's tough, but we'll manage. FYI, Jared Gutierrez and Sebastian Romero received their mission calls recently. Jared will be serving in the Oklahoma Tulsa mission (Spanish speaking), while Sebastian will be serving in Southern Mexico (the exact mission name escapes me at the moment). Vicente Banuelos Jr. finished his service a couple weeks ago.

    Take care and may the Lord continue to bless you.

    Bishop Richardson
