Let’s see, my week,
Monday
Last Monday we had two lessons scheduled but they both fell through! So we went and helped with the young single adult fhe! We were supposed to be like the Holy Ghost the or the devil tempting the people as they went through this obstacle course! It was pretty funny to see! And I was a devil it was funny to try and get people to mess up! So that was pretty fun!
Tuesday
Tuesday we had a good lesson with Elaine! We just went over and read some scriptures with her! Other than that we just kinda had a normal day! Nothing to exciting happened!
Then at night we exchanged with the Spanish elders!
Wednesday
Wednesday we went and did service for a British lady!we started building a fence for her! So that was pretty fun! We had a good time doing that! Other than that we didn’t have much happen!
Thursday
Was pretty good! We had 3 lessons! The first one was with a guy named Luke who we just found a little bit ago! The lesson went pretty good! But he is very stubborn! He will not read the Book of Mormon no matter what else happens! So we testified of it, and promised him it would bless him if he did but he still wouldn't read it! As we were leaving he said the funniest thing! He was like “ You guys look like you have something in your life I could use” and we were just like"yup!" It was crazy! Hopefully he softens up in the future cause he’s a great guy!
Then later we had a lesson with Elaine and we read the scriptures with her and some members at the church building! And it was really good!
Later we had a lesson with Kate! And it was super good too! We talked more about the temple and the blessings that come from it and she is really excited to go someday with her fiancé! So that was cool!
Friday
We had service in the morning and helped a member get some of their stuff packed up and ready to move!
And other than that not a ton crazy happened!
Saturday
Busy as always! We went and did a little bit of service for Elaine in the morning and then had a breakfast with our stake president! Then we gave a blessing to some of our new members who we met the night before! Then we had another lesson with Elaine! It was really good! We read with her again and talked to her about the scriptures and it was just a really good lesson!
Then later after dinner we had a lesson with Dana and Rod Griffee! It was great! We finished teaching them the Plan of Salvation and it was great they loved it and then we invited them to be baptized and they got super excited and said they would! Even Dana’s mom who hasn’t ever taken any interest before said she wants to be baptized! It was an awesome experience and an awesome lesson! It’s so great to see how far they’ve come since we first met them! They are great people!
Sunday
We had church with all the new people from the boundary change and it was good! There were a ton of people there! And it was a much needed boost to the ward! So that was good! And out of nowhere Raven came to church! We haven’t been able to teach her for a while and she just showed up! So that was cool! Later we met with more of the new members and got to know them!
