Mom and Dad!
Hey Mom and Dad! :) Utah!!!!!!!!!!! I love the Utes! I cant wait to go to
games again! St. George for Christmas sounds like the greatest thing
EVER!!!!!!!! #Pumped I cant believe that Baylee is getting married....Crazy! I'm
proud of her! Awesome! Well I loved hearing about the Utah game! Go Utes!
Well sorry for the shortness of the letter.... Nothing really happened this
past week!
On Tuesday we went and just worked! We found some cool people that said
they would go to church.
On Wednesday it rained cats and dogs, and we got soaked, and then we
prepared for interviews with President that would be the next day!
On Thursday we had interviews all day, and we were in the church and in the
car with Sister Russell and one of the assistants checking the apartments from
8:00am till 8:00pm! my interview was great, I was able to express the things I
wanted to change, and President helped me do that! I needed help forming better
questions, so we worked out some ways to do that!
Friday was the bad day haha, hence the Subject of the email. So we got out
to work after we taught district meeting, and Elder Merrill and Elder Lopez went
and worked with some sisters that are struggling, so I stayed in the area and
worked, but it just got worse through the day. We had some good investigators
just decide to turn their backs on us, and not want anything. That day we lost
15 investigators. That has been like the 5th time that has happened to me in
this area.
So on Saturday to help us bring some people to church because we had like 3
people that stayed with us through the epidemic, we went out with the
determination to find new investigators, so we set a high goal to contact 100
people. We just kept the attitude high, and talked with everyone. We ended up
contacting 107 people! We looked pretty good going into Sunday.
Sunday comes around, and not a single person we had contacted the day
before went to church. We ended up bringing 9 people to church from the help of
God. But they were just nonmembers passing through the ward and were just
visiting family members. Darn. So this week we are going out firing, contacting
using the restoration! Hopefully that helps us find a few more positive people
that are willing to listen to the Gospel!
Changes are coming up in the other week, so we will see what happens in 10
days....I'm hoping for changes, but we will see what the Lord wants.
I love you guys! Thanks for the prayers and all of your support!
