Conference Weekend

It is crazy to think I have already been out almost one whole transfer. It has gone by super fast already. This week was pretty good we did exchanges again with the elders in the area next to us. I ran the area for the 3rd exchange in a row. It is weird being the one in charge of the plans when I still don't know how to get everywhere, but it went pretty good.  

Every Wednesday we do service at a place called ACBC Food Shelter and it is always so much fun. It is good because it shows the community that we are just nice regular people not a bunch of freaks. We get to do a lot of good for people who are in need of food and don't have money so that is awesome. 

This week we taught our first doorstep Restoration Lesson in a while we hadn't taught one in a couple weeks. The guy didn't accept a Book of Mormon or anything but he listened to all of it. Something might come out of it further down the road that I won't see or even hear about, but that is OK. It was kind of a slower week we taught Ron and Heather twice. Man their kids are so crazy it is hard to get in a good lesson because they are always like running around screaming and stuff. It is just crazy.

We did a fast with or investigator who is trying to stop smoking and that went pretty well. At first he thought that it wasn't a good fast but then he realized that whole day he didn't smoke a single cigarette.  He realized that he can quit if he just takes it one day at a time and doesn't look at it as an all or nothing situation like he was before. We are going to keep teaching him and his kids because they are ready. His smoking is the only thing stopping them from being baptized. 

Our investigator Harry is just Golden we taught him the Plan of Salvation this week and it just all made sense to him. He is progressing along well and wants to get baptized, but is still nervous about his health. He is healthier then he thinks. Hopefully he can over come that fear. 

Conference this weekend was fantastic Harry watched all four sessions of it and loved it so much he wants us to make a CD of it for him. I will do that for him. There were some amazing talks. There was a big focus on bringing less actives back. This is something our Mission President just talked to us about. We have to get this going  better. One of the best ways is member fellowship. 

After the Priesthood Session we went to get ice cream and a member ended up being there and he bought us ice cream. Then we sat and talked to his family for a little bit and that was super fun and nice to do. 

Today we had zone p-day and we went to a park and played a bunch of games like ultimate Frisbee, a relay obstacle course and then capture the flag. It was so much fun. The last two p-days have been just fantastic. It has started to get colder. It was in like the 40's and 50's all week this week. That means winter is close. This morning we had to scrape some frost off our window and it is only the beginning of October. Hopefully the snow holds out till at least November. till next week.

Love,
