Hey Mom!
Im Glad to hear you had such a great time on the cruise. Some really good things happened this week but not too many. We had a fun Pday playing some sports at the stake center with some other missionaries. Then on tuesday we had our meetings and I was on an exchange with elder Worthngton from Spanish Fork Utah. He is an awesome kid. That was the most succesful day this week. We were able to have a couple of lessons and then we also had a really good dinner too. On wednesday we had interviews with President, those were way awesome. He such a loving guy. He really takes a lot of time to get to know every missionary personally and you can tell he is really there for you when ever you need him. On Thursday we had one of those hard days where no matter where we went nothing was happening. But in the morning this awesome lady from our ward Sister Richardson took us to a grocery store and bought us a ton of groceries. That was way awesome so we are completely stocked up right now! Friday was a loooooooooooong day. We helped this family move from 2-9. It was fun though. The husband of the family had me packing everything in the truck and i was able to use what i learned from JC penny. Never thought i would but i did hahahaha. We were able to fit everything in nice and tight. It took a long time but it went really well. When it was all over it felt soooo good to go home and sit down. We didnt want to move hahaha. Saturday was a decent day. We had a lesson but were able to contact some people and set up appointments for next week.
Sister Riggs has asked us to go through our area books and contact former investigators and thats what we have been doing. And its been working! We are teaching this 17 year old kid and he is and awesome kid. Were really hopeful his Mom wont be a big factor if he decides to be baptized. Also on Saturday we met with this African American family that is super religious. We talked with the Husband and his 3 sons. They belong to a non denominational church and the husband thinks that the "Mormon" church has a really bad rep and doesn't understand why people don't think were Christians. It was a great lesson. He wants us to come back when his wife is home because he really wants to have a lesson with her there. We are really excited for that! So not too much is going on BUT the things that are look really promising!
