Week 23

Dang I know I say this a lot but time on the mission goes by super fast. It seems like last week we were up in the desert switching comps but it was 3 weeks ago. wtheck. Anyway....

Monday was you basic p-day. We went to a park and played some rugby, touch of course, we aint breakin missionary rules here ;) 

Then we continued with the regular p-day schedule, since we are in YSA we have FHE at 7 so pretty much all day is chill haha.

Tuesday we didnt have district meeting because we have a zone conference last week so it made the day seem super long, but we got a lot done. We saw a less active that we havent seen in a few weeks and we think his girlfriend is living there... soooooo yea no good.

Wednesday was your average day, we did food bank and such in the morning. We saw a family who just found out that their father has acute leukemia which sucks but apparently he has a really high chance of surviving. The family is sort of on the edge of activity and the ward is really trying to help them out. As we were teaching their son (everyone else was at the hospital or asleep) their cat started nursing on E. Bentley's shirt super loudly it was hilarious. but anyway....

Thursday we didnt have any investigator appointments so we spent the whole day visiting less actives and were able to see a lot which was cool because people usually "aren't home."

Friday I don't even remember what happened, we saw a few people I suppose haha. Ever since E. Jennings left I haven't been as diligent in writing noteworthy things from each day so it makes the emails a little more boring... sorry

Saturday we had exchanges with the spanish elders. E. Glasgow came to our area with me. We start off every Saturday (usually) with a missionary coordination meeting, we meet with the ward mission leader and ward missionaries and talk about the work. Anyway we told them that E. Glasgow could only speak Spanish so they were all talking to him in spanish and translating for him. Then that night we had dinner with the ward mission leader and his family (who were all at the meeting) and E. Glasgow gave the message about the gift of tongues in spanish and bore his testimony in english. They all had this super surprised look on their faces until they realized what just happened haha. But apart from that prank we got some good work done I promise.

Hope you all have a great week!
