we did some work we went around and tried to see some less actives and had some success. We found some addresses we couldn't find before and then we went and we met with Roberto and that was good. He really is a good guy his illness of muscular dystrophy makes it hard for him, but he tries and they always give us food everytime we go there and they don't have very much so ya it is awesome he is a great guy. We got in with a new less active part member who said he wasn't interested, but he was super nice and willing to let us come by and talk whenever so we are going to take advantage of that maybe it will go somewhere! We had our district meeting and I was doing this one we talked all about the Book of Mormon and I think it went well. all focusing on getting down to the basics. And it was an alright day. We visited a widow with the sisters and it was good we did service and it was good and then we played basketball that night.
On Thursday it was Thanksgiving and it was good we went to the turkey bowl and it was snowing as I said in my video, but only 5 people showed up, but we still played and it was good! People wimped out and didn't come because of the snow, but it was fun and
then someone signed up to feed us and the sisters so we got permission from President because they were low on miles to just carpool down to this house and it was good we had ham and that was good and we made a pie for it and we both had never made a pie and it went ok the bottom wasn't cooked all the way through so next time will be better.
And ya it was good then the rest of the day we walked around the mall during crazy black Friday hour at 6 and it was nuts people are crazy, but then we went to a family, the Svensons, and we ate pie and then did family scripture reading with them and then family prayer and went home, but it was a good day! So ya the rest if the week was good we
helped some people move and did alot of paper work and on Sunday during 3rd hour we lead the 5th Sunday lesson. We did it on the new Christmas video an Savior is born and it was really good. It is a great video we taught the youth and we said the first 3 people to share the video and watch it in person with two of their friends we will give them
their favorite candy bar so it motivated them. And ya it was a great way to share the gospel. If you haven't seen it yet watch it. A Savior is Born it is a good way to help share the gospel and help people realize we are Christians too. It is only 2 mins long and it is great so I encourage you all to share it! And ya it was good! Well it was good
week.
I was reading in the Book of Mormon today and ya i was reading in 2nd Nephi 26 a chapter I have read many times and I learned more from it this time then last time. It is just amazing how much you can gain from the scriptures no matter how many times you read it you can always get some new revaluation and you can grow that is the beauty of the gospel we can always keep growing we are never done growing we can always be better then we were currently are so it is amazing. So we will never be idle because being idle is not good so be engaged in a good cause it is amazing what we can do with the gospel. I hope that everyone can share the gospel this week with all the tools we have been given like the new video it isn't hard to share the gospel and as we try the Holy Ghost will help us know what to say when the time comes! Well that is all till next week.
Love
Elder Howe
