Dear yall, This was a fun week of the holidays for most people. For the missionaries however, no one wanted to meet with us. Yaaayyy. Even though it was hard to fill time with meaningful activities we still had good contacts and activities. Monday: We met with this guy named Francisco. He wants to come to church so we'll see how that goes. Tuesday: then we had transfers which were wild since we had to drive down even though none of us were transferred. Because of that my companion Elder Elmer got some boots. Wednesday: we helped this lady named Martha move her entire house on Wednesday. It took a llloooooonnnngg time. We talked with her about the gospel and gave her and her daughters blessings since Martha just went into surgery. It was positive but we will be having the Azalea Spanish Sister start teaching her since she also speaks Spanish and is a lady. Thursday: Thanksgiving was interesting. We played football in the morning with the ward and then had two member meals which were much appreciated. Shout out to the Homan and Amott families, they were incredibly kind in inviting us over. Later we finished moving Martha into her house and tried to do some missionary work but no one was willing to talk us. Friday: On Friday we helped another family move and had a great lesson with our friend Trey and invited him to be baptized. He said he wanted to but wanted to talk about it with his fiance first. We then asked if we could start teaching his fiance and he said he has been wanting to ask us so wish them luck and their journey of faith Saturday: we dropped off a copy of preach my gospel to a recent convert on his birthday. Hopefully he didn't think it was boring and that he reads it. Sunday: we had a good ice cream social with the zone and talked about coordinating with our ward councils. This week was kind of fun but I am definitely looking forward to people not canceling on us. Just gotta wait for Christmas week to do it all over again. Love yall!
