Blessings

This week was definitely emotional! we had zone conference and I couldn't even share a thought with out busting into tears! man its startin to hit me that this wonderful journey is about over. I absolutely love being on the lords errand and a full time missionary! 

This week was so sweet because one of the sisters inv. asked me to baptize her! so I got to finish my mission in the ocean! Also the branch pres daughter got baptized! the spirit is always so strong at baptisms. 

One more week! it will be so crazy to see all of you again! 

Love you all! The church is true! and I am so grateful to be on a mission!!!!

love you all have a great week!

Raining Buckets = Nuf Crabs

So basically this week was crazy!! I went crab hunting with aunty wooge and travis family. They are so cool!!!

Another crazy thing president Herrington flew to the island! He came to help with the branch. But it was pouring rain. And in the carib when it rains NO body leaves there house! So basically no one came to church but 2 faithful members. Not even the branch president came lol.

I learned an important lesson though that has changed my life forever. It is D&C 18:10 The worth of souls is great in the sight of god!! We were supposed to have branch council before church and I was the only one there from the branch so it would have been really easy to have canceled it. But instead President Herrington said well lets still do it just me and you. So I opened with a prayer. And then president took that whole hour and a half to teach me. It was so touching. He pulled out the red handbook and just taught me so much about what it means to be in the branch presidency and how to be an effective leader in the church. What a blessing it is to have a wonderful mission president who truly cares about the worth of souls, even mine.

Also this week was good with all the crabs we caught they made us some Crab buyoii. It is basically spinach and dumpling and crab soup! yum! :) here are some pics

Slayin' Every Day

Everything is dope. Face healed working hard! Feelin the spirit and just slayin the end of this mish. We have been teaching travis and the fam they are doing good. Travis was going to be baptized this Saturday but he wants to hold off a few weeks to continue to learn. I honestly think he is just getting pressure from friends. So we are going to pray for him and I am sure the lord will help him be ready before I bounce! 

Also we hiked the pitons today which was pretty dope! this rasta man was our tour guide! such a fun time! 

This week this guy gave me a grilled fish he said to eat the whole thing. So i did brain, eyes, teeth, bones, tongue.. everything lol that was a funny experience.

Everyday is a grind out here. Striving to find the elect can be hard at times but we are working hard! Something I learned this week is to not focus on ourselves and our problems but to focus on others because we only have so much time in a day to help someone out and to be a servant of god! I just wish I had more time in a day to help his children in any way I can! 

here is a pic of travis and his family! 

and some of the adventures this week! 

love elder Dixon
