- Elder Baird's #BLESSED Mission: WEEK 11 VANCOUVER: Light is what makes vision possible

Time fly's when you're having fun!

Yaaa so this week has felt like an eternity.

Not really. Everyone always said it takes 6 months for the mission to finally start going fast, but lowkey it's flying right now. Every p-day I'm like holy crap, it was doing this last night. It's kinda crazy, but I'm having so much fun, so I guess the statemnt proves true.

Tuesday was Zone Conference pt.1 / mission tour. We had Elder and sister Stanfill of the seventy, and it was crazy good. Super spirit filled. What a dude. Actually so amazing. And I got to hangout with all the dope missionaries. We also had a lesson with our friend Selina which was great. She's just trying to find out what that seed of faith looks like, so hopefully she'll get it planted and grown. But she's super willing. After that we went out with Mo whos a bro. Awesome sauce!

Wednesday came around where we had a couple lessons which were epic. Love how real the spirit is. Like the church is true. But then we had a member meal, blessed, and had basketball night. So you can't get much worse than that. The joys of being a missionary;)

Thursday. Guess what. Another memebr meal. Obviously. Ate "Weird Bean Thing".

Can confirm.

"Weird Bean Thing" was actually quite really good bean thing. So, extra dope. And they're a young Utah couple, so it was an epic evening.

Friday we went driving. And no. not boring car driving. But golfing driving. Yessir! Ya boi went golfing for a lesson. It was super fun, and I'm locking in for when I get back. But it was with a friend whos been really struggling with life, and I think it was good for him to get out and just have some fun. Please please please (no sabrina) keep our friend Sam in your prayers. Cus I just met him, and no all I want to do is see him smile. And Jesus can do that for him. It will be 慢慢来, but it will happen.

Met a dope dude at a doughnut shop on Saturday

Sunday was stake conference. And after that, the Korean branch grabbed us and told us we had to eat. So Stake Conference really did turn into Steak Conference. It was kinda epic.

Got to watch part of K-pop demon hunters yesterday which was also pretty epic. Then had FHE and played Volley ball, and partied to real life actual music. Like holy. I forgot that ish existed. And I can say right now, that was blessed. Don't get me wrong, TABCATS are the goat. But 2 years of that, mmmmmmm. Lady gaga was a nice change up.

Then today was glorious P-day. Got to play even more volleyball and mafia. Also just got back from institute which is free dinner and gospel class. You really can't get better than that. But don't worry ya'll, I'm still working out. Don't fret.

But ya, this week was super duper pretty litty. (have fun translating all this Pappa) The lord loves his missionaries, and even better he lovese his sheep.

The subject of this email comes from zone conference. We were talking about light, and the light of crhist. So I decided to do a quick Facebook meta search. Rip Chat. Asking what light was. It gave me a super scientific answer, and I was like bruh I don't need this. But at the end it said "In summary, Light is what makes vision possible." And I was like yooooo, straight bars. But I really loved that, because Christ is the light of life. So many times we can get cuaght in the darkness of - "am I good enough? Nobody loves me. What's the point?" And that's where the light of Christ becomes so important. Because it gives us the eternal vision. Yes you are good enough, "You are good enough for me". Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father love you more than you could ever imagine. Ohh, and also, I love ya'll. So cross that one off. And Jesus is the point. Christ makes vision possible. So this Christmas go spread that light, and ask for it if you need it. Cus he will always give. Jesus Christ is literally Him.

But that's it from me.
