5-6-13


Another week here in Potosi! oh yes.
    Monday was a good day. We had a our fun activities then we went to Brians that night for a lesson which went well. It was fun and great and he learned a lot in the lesson.
     Tuesday was god. We had 5 lessons that day which was great for this area. and we picked up two new gators that day. We started the day off by going and teaching Arthur who this is the first time we got to teach him since the first time we taught him. It was good. He is a way old man so it is sometimes hard to keep him focused  Then we taught Phil and Phil jr.  Then we saw Steven and his wife. Which things have been crazy for them because angie went into labor  this week 12 weeks early but now she is ok because she did not have the baby yet. Then we went and taught our down stairs neighbors  They are the couple that we picked up as new gators. it was great! It was a awesome lesson that went very well. They are going to progress great. That night we had a lesson with that Nashs who will be baptized in a couple of weeks!
     Wednesday was a little bit of slower day. We only had a lesson that day with Ashley who now soon can get baptized because she moved out of her bf place! Yes!
     Thursday was interesting  We had district meeting that morning down in fredrictown. We had to drive all the way down there. It is a far drive. We then after we started our exchange It was ok. i was with Elder harris in his area. We taught this guy in a mental institution. He seemed kinda normal but probably not. Then we taught the Shavers a family who has been taught for a long time. Then went by potentials and what not for the rest of the day.
      Friday we switched back and i went back to my own area. Which was great. and we had our weekly planning then which was fun. We make it fun and not boring but very quick at times. We were supposed to go do yard work for someone but it was to wet outside to do it anymore. So we did not. And we wend and taught a couple of lessons instead to Tim and to Missy.
       Saturday we were supposed to do service again but to much rain again. We taught a couple of lessons but that was about it.
     Sunday was great because we had 3 gators come to church which is amazing and then one of our 3 gators brought a friend too who we will start teaching also. SO it was great. We taught 4 lessons that day  which was awesome. we did not expect to get all those lessons. One of them being with a new gator. SO that is 3 new gators this week! oh yes!
  Today is zone pday. Not sure what we are really doing yet. but ti will be fun! i hope! have a great week!
