This past week was good. We were
able to visit many members as we always do. We had the opportunity to
teach one of our investigators in McDonalds. Despite the distractions,
we were able to feel the spirit. We have been taking a young man from
the branch, our 17 year old member, with us to appointments now so that
we can have him fellowship with the members and investigators we have.
Friday night we had exchanges and I went with the new
Missionary transferred from English to Asl, Elder Olseon. He's pretty
cool and is willing to learn the language. So Saturday we gave other
missionaries the keys to the baptism room because we forgot to after our
baptism last week. When we arrived a member saw us and was confused why
we were there. We explained we were asl and that just triggered the
chatterbox. For two and a half hours we stood there while he talked
about his experiences serving in the Branch a few years ago as well as
his many Mission experiences. Finally we got out and went to support one
of Elder Oleson's previous investigator's baptism. After that we went
and saw a member, contacted a referral and visited a less active. Then
we made pizza at the apartment and exchanges ended.
We have new callings in our Branch. A new Relief
Society Presidency as well as an Elder quorum president. These callings
will help the Branch grow with home and visiting teaching assignments
and more!
Anyway that's all the news for Today.
Thanks for the prayers and hope everyone has a wonderful week!
Love,
