Monday after pday we went to a part members house and did
family home evening with them. The dad is not a member and the kids have not
been to church in months. We had a good lesson. They are from Chile so it's hard to understand them sometimes
but we had a good lesson.
Tuesday night we had dinner with the less active we
have been working with. He made such a good dinner garlic potatoes and chicken
legs and some other stuff SO good!! That night we had to spend the night at the
zone leaders flat. They got rid of the extra bed so elder dalton and I had to
sleep on the floor. That was not a good nights sleep. I don't think I really
slept.
The next morning we had zone conference which is all the missionarys in
the south part of the zone We meet in whales and have a big meeting. so yes I went
to Wales!! Very cool...looks alot like England cept they speak Welsh sometimes amd I
can't understand that. Zone conference was good. President Rassumen talked a lot
about being accountable. Stuff like the lord has given us part of his vineyard
and we are here to care for it. He used this line "this isn't a game
elders and sisters... this is people's salvation at stake" Kinda hit me when
he said that. We then got back late at night so we didn't get a lot done that
day besides seeing alot of other missionaries and having meetings.
This week we
have been doing a lot of tracking and no luck. No potentials at all this week.
But the zone leaders got a referral for us last night they say they is very
good. So we'll see how that turns out.
Thursday night was just crazy. We were going
to have a member pick us up and going teach this old man named Richard. but the
memebr canceled on us 1 hour before we had to be there. The ride there is so
dangerous so we said a prayer and walked to 3 or 4 miles to Offenham to see
Richard. We were about 20 mins late but we made it and had a good lesson with
him. He is reading a ton of the Book of Mormon and I think we will have a date
for him in the next few weeks.
Friday we had to help this family move out. It was
really just elder dalton and me and 2 other people to move a whole house.
Saturday we went to Tewkesbury which is a town south west of Evesham. It's a bit
bigger than Evesham and we did some tracking.. No luck and stopped by a few lost
sheep we made contact with them so that's good. We almost missed our bus so we
had to run on the high street to make it to the bus. People were
yelling at us but who cares we made it to our bus. That night we went by Angie
and had a good leason with her resolved some issues. Pretty much her ex husband
feeds he anti Mormon doctrine and doesn't want her to come to church. Her mom is
like a spirit talker lady so she has also been feeding Angie some anti Mormon
doctrine. So we had to resolve some concerns. She is still reading and praying.
She really needs a friend in the church that she can turn to so we are working
to try and find one. But other than that she is doing very well and we plan to
see her twice this week. We might have her back on a date.
