Dear family,
Hi, this week was
okay. So Monday we had pday and played soccer it was awesome. Wish I played it in highs
school I regret a lot of things in high school. But after pday we had dinner
with the Owens and had a lesson, they were very distracted cause there favorite
football teem was playing so we just left pretty fast.
Tuesday was interviews
with president it was good talked about a lot. he gave me homework to do so
that's good. He gave me a talk to read, from 1993 October called ward families, it was really good about the blessing of coming to church not just for the sacrament but for what the ward can do for us as families and how it is a safe house from the outside world and how a ward is a big family it was cool. They are going to start having them every transfer and zone
conferences every month so that's a big change! It was a good interview I told
him what I am struggling with, and he gave me a lot of advice. Presidents the
best! And sister wright fixed my pants she's the best to!! . and then we went
finding for the afternoon ran into some funny people and some people that were
short with us, pretty normal but that's cool haha. Then after that we went and
met with a less active and helped her come closer to the Book of Mormon that
was awesome, after that we had a lesson with another less active, and their
going through and divorce right now which is sad but they are doing better than
they were before.
Wednesday was blue lake day it was we went up and visited a
sister to see how she is doing, she can't really leave her house so we visit
her every week, she loves it. After that we went finding and tried to see some
potential investigators but no luck. We had a good lesson with brother freiday
he is doing good. After that we went and had dinner with the siedts family and
she expressed some testimony issues about deep doctrine super deep doctrine,
really nobody can answer it but, i think people get caught up with trying to
figure stuff out here on earth when it's impossible and that is what is holding
them back which is sad they need to hold to what they know is true like the
Book of Mormon and just know that all will be revealed to us, he has promised
us that. It was a good dinner that is an awesome family, after that we went and
visited a couple more people I called sister Stewart the ward mission nurse
about my neck, and she said I can go to a chiropractor and the mission
insurance will cover 5 visits. Just realizing I think it's from the wreck I had
a couple months ago. ☹️️ oh well haha.
Thursday we went up to hoopa and tried to see
some less actives but a lot of them fell through 😫 but we met up with brother Kimble and did some
service for a less active and we went finding with him it was fun, we had
dinner with the Johnstons and then drove home!
Friday was planning day it was
of course super duper awesome 😉😉 we had a couple
lessons that night it was good.
Saturday we went finding all day and tracking
which is always crazy. It's super tiring. We pretty much did that the whole
day, we had a good lesson with a less active that night.
Sunday was good we had
church we taught the CTR class about the restoration of the church they are
crazy kids ! And after that we went finding all day and then had dinner by our
selfs. And then went less active finding it was okay. But that was my week. Thank you for the talk I will read it definitely (sent him a link from October conference to the talk by Elder
W. Mark Bassett, called “For Our Spiritual Development and Learning”).
Re activation is going
good we have 2 less actives starting to come to church regularly now so that's
some success. I am grateful for it. The Owens family is pretty close to
committing to baptism but we will keep working with them of course. 😃 tell the kids I say
hello ! And I love them. My companion is doing good, he says hi. Love you guys!!
