Week #75

This week was really good! A lot happened and we were able to have a ton of lessons and I have a new companion! He is from Naperville Illinois! Second one form there and still haven’t had one from Idaho... he is chill 

Last Monday Elder Kane and I were up in Santa Monica just driving around seeing what’s up then we can home and found this former investigator that had reached out to us us last Sunday! She is super cool and told us to come by on Thursday!

Tuesday got my new companion made sure everyone exchanged then we went out to our recent convert and his investigator wife and had a lesson with them! They are going to the Philippines today for two weeks so it was like us saying goodbye:( then after we got a call from a less active member in our ward that said “meet me at the church at 7” turns out this dude is a sick bro and he told us he wants to get his wife back to church and be strong in the gospel again. He also use to live in Portland and he told me he doesn’t like voodoo doughnuts:( smh Chris.

Wednesday we had our study’s and went out and started meeting members until dinner.  We ate with this super old couple in the ward and one of them grew up in Caldwell and I told him I was from eagle so he started asking if I knew all these people from pretty much Boise.  I kept saying no, after about 47 nos he said “yeah those people are. All probably dead anyways.” Classic. After our investigator took us up to the VC for a lesson with president Haynie. It was a really good lesson! We helped. Him realize that god has answered his prayers and that he has felt the Holy Ghost! The spirit was there and President Haynie helped out a ton! He just still isn’t sure! One day this ol boy will come around. 

Thursday we had weekly planning and had to do a bunch of zone leader crap then went and had that lesson with that investigator from Monday! She is super cool and really opened up to us! Right after that we went and found another investigator and a less active mom and daughter!

Friday we gathered the entire zone together for a welcome to the Downey zone thing. And then had district meeting  then went out and worked for a Minute then went to HP so I could go on exchanges with Elder slavens. 

Saturday we started at the VC. The investigators cancelled so we trained home then smashed face for the rest of the day! We set like 6 return appointments and a new baptismal date! 

Sunday was the classic paramount ward experience. Just crusty. Right after church we had a. Lesson with that less active mom and her daughter who isn’t baptized. And set some expectations! They told us a little of the situation and I am excited to keep working with them! Finished 5e night eating at bro Gracias house. What a man. 

Have a good week! Love you all!
