Elder Kopischke and Thanksgiving!

I had my first General Authority meeting on my mission!! Elder Kopischke is in the First Quorum of the Seventy and oh my goodness I loved it sooooo much. The spirit was so strong and he answered a lot of our questions. He didn't have a set topic to talk about because all he wanted to do was have the spirit there so Heavenly Father could answer our individual questions. It was amazing.
Things I learned/loved:
You can only receive what you are ready to receive (so if you want something, you have to spiritually prepare yourself for it)
True doctrine understood changes behavior
The gospel is JOY!
We go through difficult things to become special
Hard things are wonderful things that we don't understand
The Lord means what He says
When you share your testimony, you are literally sharing a part of you.
We had our branch Thanksgiving dinner after church yesterday! 🍖🍤🍞🍜🍲Yum!! And it probably won't surprise any of you that our chapel was the most full this week than I have ever seen it. 😄 Everyone we invited was like "What? Food? Ok, I"ll come." Maybe we need to have Thanksgiving dinner after church every week. 😜 3 of our investigators came and many many less actives. :P One of the members had to ask me who a couple of the less actives were because she had never seen them at church before. Haha!  And we wouldn't had 5 investigators there but one of them got really sick and the other slept in. Next week. :)
I hope you all had a great week!!
