Hey Mom,
So this week started off way slow because i was in the appartment from monday-wednesday recovering from my surgery. Diffrent Elders stayed with me on exchanges up until Thursday. Thursday i was sick of being inside so it was a normal day on the schedule. I was really slow at walking (which hurt as well hahaha) but its better than sitting around. So each day got a little better and better. Now the area is a little tender but i feel at about 85%. I can walk normal. Its a little hard to go from sitting to standing. But im feeling a lot better.
We are working a lot with less actives and are tracting a ton but our were struggling with getting investigators and especially progressive investigators. Thats what we really are praying for. We want to teach and were just itching to at this point. Other than health and our progress everything else is good. The ward were in is so nice and the second the whole ward found out I was in the Hospital we got so many calls and food and goodies. It was awesome. Also the members brought us awesome wood bed frames because we didnt have any frames just mattresses on the floor and it was hard for me to get up off the floor after my surgery. We also were just were given a new dresser this moring. Our old one only had 3 drawers so now we have 6.
I went to my first Zone confrence wich was really fun. We did a lot of activities there. THe weather has been so wierd. Some says hot, some cold, and some perfect. The members say its the wierdest weather they've seen. But everythings is good and im healing really fast so no complaints!
O ya i got to give my first blessing. It was only annointing but man was i nervous. I was mega scared but i felt really calm and peaceful afterwards and i just felt good. Thats pretty much how i can describe it. I did it for Sister Doxey a less active. And she was said i did a good job and Elder Holfeltz said i did too so i am sure the Lord accepted it.
So theres these things called DC cookies. You'll see them in the pics. So Sister Albright went to DC and got them for me. YOu have wait like 2 hours in line because there so good and everyone wants one. But she special ordered them online and was able to go right in and get them so when her and President Albright visited me at the apartment they brought them. Their the best!
I love you,
Elder Powell
