Week 44: November 7

Dear family! 

Hey everyone I hope all is well with all of you guys! This week was transfers, so that's always crazy. 

On pday we just hung out at the church and played basketball and that was cool, it was Halloween, so we weren't allowed out past 8 unless we had a lesson or we were at a members house so we had dinner at the Owens and then, went over to a members house and ate all there food and talked to people haha. It was fun. 

Tuesday was crazy we woke up at 4 am and drove to eureka and dropped my companion off and they drove down with all the missionaries to Santa Rosa while elders morales and Anderson and I stayed up in eureka for the day, we went over and helped brother Boone from there ward with that huge project that I was telling you about. But we waited for the others to get back up here. And we got our comps. And then we went shopping for the week and went back and had a lesson with a less active, and then we went and unpacked elder Sears so it was good haha. 

Wednesday was blue lake day we went and visited sister warvi, elder Sears fell asleep during the lesson haha. It was okay, this transfer is going to be interesting cause I am literally doing everything by myself, so that's a challenge. But we will see how it goes. Gotta have that faith, but we went finding all day knocked on some doors this one lady was very short with us, so that was fun haha, her dog wasn't very nice but! I didn't get bit in the face so that's good 😊 but yeah elder Sears hit his head on a door frame that was funny, I kinda feel bad for the guy haha. But we then went and picked up a table for a member from another member moving out, but we stayed for about an hour helping them cause there old and kinda falling apart haha. Elder Sears cut his wrists open on this metal thing so that wasn't good we had to bandage Him up haha. But after we went and dropped the table off and read the Book of Mormon with brother freiday, he was so grateful for the table, it was really good to help him. After we drove to mackinlyville and had dinner with the siedts, and there kids stole my iPad and started taking pics with it and videos it was pretty funny haha. 

Thursday was hoopa!! We drove up and we saw 3 less actives first. Just the regulars haha. But we drove up to hoopa and when we were waiting this guy was on something, but he was yelling and no one and he was picking up rocks and yelling and throwing them and he was right next to our car so that was freaky. Thought we were going to a stoned haha. But after that we met up with brother Kimble and we went and gave a baby a blessing, definitely didn't think I would do that on my mission haha. It was awesome. 3 possible potential investigators their. But elder Sears hit his head on there door frame which was sad but funny. But after we went and towed there truck full of crap out of there yard and drove it to the dump that was crazy haha. But after we went to the shipmens and I mowed there lawn and picked up all there leaves and we picked up chopped wood and took it too the there storage unit that was great, they fed us dinner, there super funny I love them both. We drove home after that.

Friday we had district meeting it was good elder Sears feel asleep 😂 but after we went to brother boons and helped him with his huge project and after we planned for a little it was good, we then went and had a lesson with the Stewart's. 

Saturday we finished weekly planning went finding, we didn't watch the conference thing, idk I guess it wasn't that important to us watching it, president said we couldn't, was it good ? We had a blitz after in the zone leaders so they gave us a bunch of names for us to go see for them, and we got some people and others were very short with us. But it was fun 😂 we had a lesson with brother Krachruk after he is a cool guy, talked to us about his patients cause he is a doctor. 

But  yeah Sunday was good super stressed cause I feel alone cause I do everything and I am the only one that talks in a lesson, but I know I am not alone haha. Never alone. But church was good everyone got to meet elder Sears. After we did some ward work on the computers. After we went finding for the rest of the afternoon, we had a lesson with an investigator after and we read the BOM with him. After we tried seeing some other people but no luck :( but that was my week pretty crazy personally. But it is going well. We have interviews with president tomorrow excited for that. I need some counseling 😉 but yeah this week I learned to trust in the lord no matter what has long as your doing your very best and trying your hardest in whatever your doing he will guide you he has promised it. You will be blessed and receive those blessings. The kids sound like they are super busy!! Did they get my letters? Tell them I love them and miss them to death !!
