Heya Parents!
Glad to hear that Zac is getting
comfortable and situated at home. Sounds like he is a whole new man.
Can't wait to see how he has let the Lord change his life. :) I heard
Boston is the cutest baby there ever was?? Doesn't surprise me, he's
pretty cool.
Wow! Going big with the 2015! I
never thought I would see the day when my parents bought a brand new
car...
Katherine Hanks and Tyler Orr??? Wow! Good for them!
Sad
to hear about Treavor's job. Especially since he just moved out into
his own apartment. He will find something soon. Hopefully Tanner will
too!!
I'm sure you will know what to speak on in
Stake Conference here pretty soon. Whenever I'm in a situation that I
don't know what to say or do I always think of the scriptures, D & C
84:85 and D & C 11:21.
Well,
This week has been a long week. Slow with the work and we basically
have 1 investigator right now. Which makes it tough! We have been in
finding mode for about 3 weeks straight with what seems to no avail.
Every day all day is finding! Never tracted so much! We ended up at an
apartment complex that we had partially tracted out and we decided to
go back to a potential we had tracted into maybe 6 weeks ago. He is an
atheist and won't budge at all, but we were determined! We went in and
he started going off again so I told him we weren't going to do that
again (this is the guy I told to put his laptop away)! So I pulled out
the scriptures and read parts of the story in Alma 30 about Korihor
(anti-Christ) and Alma. Well, it didn't end up how I wanted it too....
haha! He asked me why he didn't get a sign like Korihor! I asked him
why he would want a sign after reading about how he was struck dumb!
This guy doesn't make much sense to me at all. We decided to let some
other missionaries try him when we aren't in the area. haha! But,
before we walked out on him again, we committed him to read 10 minutes
out of the Book of Mormon!
This past week and
this week we are supposed to have the car, but about 3 weeks ago the
elders that we share the car with wrecked it! So we have been on foot
and bikes for two weeks, which makes it hard because out area is so
big! But, we got word we would be getting a car today! Yippee!!
That's basically the week!
Love you all so much!
