Anohter week has passed by with great things happening. Oh yes. GREAT THINGS. So I will start giving a summary of the week.
Monday was PDAY. We went and hung out at the filius house that day. We were allowed to play board games and card games. So that is what we did the whole time we were there with them. Then that night we went to the Moises with the other set of missionaries in the ward to play games there also and have dinner and celebrate new years a little early. It was fun. We played a game called headbandz where you have a head band on your head with a card that has a word on it that is a noun. And you have a certain amount of time to ask people yes or no questions to figure out what it is. I won:) It was fun.
We were given Tuesday completely off also. Which we had to spend most of the day cleaning the appartment and Truck. So we got everything all nice and clean! After that we picked up the other set of missionaries again and played frisbee golf and then went and hung out at some members places which was fun. It was a fun couple of days.
Wednesday We had an appoitment that morning that fell through. Then we went to have our appointment with Chauncei. He was not there but two of his brothers were there. We asked well since we were there if we could teach them. So they let us and we picked them up as new gators! So it worked out well! Then we had two more appoinments fall through and we finished off the night at the Moises going over the stop smoking and preparing for it which we started it today.
Thursday we had weekly planning. We met with Chauncei that morning because the day before fell through. The Book of Mormon is making more and more sense to him every time he reads it. I have never seen anyone come to love the BOM so much as he has on my mission. We then met with Linda because it has been a while since we have seen her and met with her. My whole goal is to get everyone I have baptized here to be at church in the next couple weeks because they are mostly likely my last couple weeks. We then met with the Taylors also.
The next day we had d-meet on a friday which is not normal. But it was cool. It was good. After that we spent the rest of the day getting in touch with potentials and formers and people who have been lost through the cracks. We were somewhat succesful in doing so.
Saturday was great. The Taylors were not there for the appointment that morning though... But then we we and Met with Jaaniece who had a few friends over to here what we have to say! It was cool because some of them were picked up as new gators and they liked what we had to say. The lesson was more focussed on prayer and how we recieve answers which was awesome! It turned out very well. After that we had our appointment with the Filius where we had dinner with them and a lesson. Sis. Filius had her non member mother over who we got to teach which was awesome! People here are doing great misisonary work in finding people for us to teach! which is way awesome!
Sunday we start church at 12:30 instead of 9 now which is so awesome because we got to go by some investigators places that morning to get them to come to church. Which worked! It was awesome. Everyone I have baptized here were at church also which was great too. It is sad when people are baptized then go less active. After church they had a break the fast which was great. Then we had an appointment with Beth because today is when she starts the program. Please pray for her that she will be able to quit smoking.
Today we have zone pday and a CDM. So it will be fun! Have a great week!
