This week was pretty cool. You know just
hangin out, getting a new companion halfway through the transfer and
having mine get moved to a different ward because an Elder got his VISA,
and covering two wards instead of just one. The usual I guess. But for
real I got a new companion now! His name is Elder Sheen. He's awesome.
He's also from Idaho! That's two in a row. 3 in total. His companion
left a few weeks ago to go to Australia and so he was bouncing around
the zone for a few weeks but they decided they would put him with me and
have us cover both wards and kick Elder Stallings to another ward. It's
been cool. It's actually not as bad as I first thought it would be. We
just split up the wards every other day and on Sundays we just go to
both! It's super cool. 5 hours of church is fun. It makes Sundays fly by
super fast. It's weird.
This week we had a
pretty cool finding experience. We went to visit an old potential and he
turned out to be super receptive. That really hasn't happened to us a
ton in this area. We were able to teaching him a little first lesson and
set up another time to come back this week. It was cool to see Heavenly
Father put someone who was willing to listen in our path. We've had a
few of those this week. He was the only one that we actually taught, but
we've been able to set up some really good return appointments for this
week. We've started to sow even more and hopefully soon will come the
time for reaping!
Also I had the opportunity to
sing in Sacrament meeting yesterday. It was awesome. I sang hymn 97
"Lead, Kindly Light". It was planned but the person in charge of making
the programs forgot, so I thought we weren't going to do it but then they
announced a change in the program so it was all good. It was my first
time ever singing alone at church! I was only having medium panic attacks
as I walked up to the stand. It was a great experience. Hopefully I get
to do it again soon!
Well, I hope ya'll have a great week and that all the things you do will be successful!! Love love love.
Keep it real.
