Week 7

So yup this is a rarity. Week 7 of a transfer begins.... normally there is only 6.

This week was pretty average I guess.

We taught a lot more because we weren't sick anymore ( Thank you for you prayers). We also had MLC down in Rancho this week. So tomorrow is Zone Meeting and President  Hobbs is coming... so yeah...

We were able to teach Lyn and Lanice and we finally found some good fellowship for them. They were able to watch Conference with the members.

We taught Douglas and were able to watch conference with him too.

We found a new investigator in the YSA. Some sisters in our zone were teaching him but decided he would do better in the YSA so they passed him to us.

Conference was the Bestest! It was so good! I love hearing from living prophets and apostles!

Ps. the Pictures are of the shirts we made.

This week was interesting....

This week was interesting...

So we had  regular stuff at the beginning of the week. we got new phones... that are terrible... i might have said that last week... but it is true.

On Wednesday I got to go on exchanges with E. Topham ( the elder i trained... my gosh that seems like for ever ago... sorry) anyway we had a great day together! I also got to do Shantal's baptismal interview ( Shantal is E.Topham's investigator who was also baptized on saturday). The Wednesday evening/night i started getting sick. 

Thursday me and elder smith both were kinda sick... but nothing terrible so we still tried to work. Friday we were more sick so we worked less and just made it to our appointments. then Saturday we thought we were better... but it was God strengthening us for our baptism. In the morning we got everything ready for the baptism( which thankfully wasn't alot because there was a baptism before us) and then the building coordinator lady threw us a curveball and told us she hadn't scheduled us or the other set of missionaries and that there were 2 other baptisms that were happening so we would have to wait.... but she was just crazy. We were the 2 baptisms that she had scheduled and she was just mistaken so that was a relief. Kenny was baptized and all went as good as can be asked. then after the baptism we just crashed ... like i said God strengthened us for the baptism, but after that we felt horrible. Sunday was about the same. Kenny was confirmed and we made it to the YSA ward. Then we had Easter dinner with the Packers. and came home and slept.

Today we don't feel much better... but we are happy :)

We have a baptism this week!!!

So this week was nuts.... I feel like I say that a lot.... so I say that alot?

anyway... Monday evening we got a call from our Relief society president. She had just ran into Kenny and Sabrina. an Kenny had told her that he was being baptized on Wednesday... like last week Wednesday. And she was like wait??? what? so she called us. We were kinda feeling like Kenny wasn't interested because he seemed to be dodging us. But we called him and talked with him and then went to his house and taught him all of the commandments in one night.. in one hour more specifically. Thankfully he is already living all of the commandments so that made our life a lot easier! We decided he couldn't be baptized on Wednesday, but we will be baptizing him on this  Saturday! He had his interview on Wednesday and passed. So we are good to go!

Wednesday we did a big service project out at a squash farm... it was super cool becuase the AppleValley Newspaper was there and some sisters in our zone got on the front page of the paper!!

Then on thursday we went on exchanges with the assistants. I was down in Rancho one last time with Elder Findlay ( he is some how related to Melissa Kriszan's husband). We had a great day and handed out an entire stack of cards... thats like 50 I think. It was amazing.

Friday we just planned and tried some potentials.

Saturday we tried to sort out our new phone and plan for a meeting we have to lead about the new phones that we got. the new phones suck. hahah they are pretty much the same as the old ones except for they are with AT&T instead of Sprint so we might actually have service, but the contacts don't transfer very well... and they have a terrible operating system... anyway....

Then we went to 7-11's BYO Cup day. the pics are of the tin I used... it was like 3 gallons I think hahah don't worry I didn't eat it all hahah

Sunday Kenny and Sabrina came to church and we were surprised with Lyn and Lanice at church as well! and Then taylor showed up in the YSA ward too! it was a great Sunday!

Love you lots
