Tuesday we did the normal stuff. Right after that we went to Sister Winfield's place and had a lesson with one of her friends, and picked up a new investigator! We went to the Whitehead's for supper. They're such a great family. After supper we went and picked up Willie, and surprised Shannon on her birthday. It was pretty awesome.
Wednesday we went and we finally finished the Fence! Woohoo! haha. After an interesting afternoon (if you want details, email me and I'll do my best to explain) we went and did some service with Brother Wry, the ward mission leader. It was pretty good. We had supper with them after. It was a lot of fun. It was a really crazy day.
Thursday was fantastic. we had lunch with Sister Winfield. Analyn and Cheng, a couple of investigators, were there as well, and we had an awesome lesson with them after. It was great. After that we went and did some Mormon.org time, and looked up some videos that we can share with our investigators. After that we went and had supper with Buck and Karen Hills. They're so great. We had an awesome lesson with them. After that we drove out to the Ward's and had another lesson with them. We gave them the Book of Mormon on a flash drive so they can listen to it while they're at home. It's going to be awesome.
Friday was really good. We did weekly planning. Both of us were just tired and wanted something to change, so we rearranged all of the furniture in the apartment. And it looks great! After that we went and visited Joe, a member here. He's awesome. We had a great lesson on appreciating the little things in life. After that we went and set up a lesson with a potential investigator for next week! It's going to be awesome. We had supper with the Wry's again, and it was great. It was just a great day, again!
Saturday was pretty good. We tried to contact a potential investigator, and met his wife. She's super cool. They're both really interested, and they said to come by any time after 5. So that's what we're going to do! After that we went to a funeral for a member. It was a really good. The best part was Willie, during the lunch after, throwing candy at people. It was awesome. People were laughing and it was just great. After that we went and visited Heather, and gave her a blessing. She's going through a rough spot, so it was really good with her. That night we had a lesson with David Sloan. He's so great. It was a great lesson about how through Faith miracles happen.
Sunday was good. We had ward council in the morning, and then church was fantastic. After church we had a ward potluck, and it was breakfast food. It was so good. I love breakfast food. After the potluck we went and tried to have a lesson with an investigator named Amber, but she wasn't home, so we went and did the rest of our studies and we had supper. AFter that we picked up Willie and we went and had a lesson with Amber Otto. It was a really good lesson on Charity, and forgiveness. It was a really good lesson. It was really fun.
Monday was really awesome. We went out to the Ward's to help Richard out with something. After that we had a sweet lesson on loving what comes. Come What may and Love it! After that we went to another funeral. It was interesting. We had it in our building, but there was a different pastor that came and did the service. His name was Pastor Bill. He is a really cool guy. It was an interesting experience. I am so grateful for the Plan of Salvation. After the service we went and had lunch, and while we were eating lunch we met a guy named Marcus. He is hilarious! We heard a bunch of stories that he told of his childhood, and it was fantastic. He told us to come around and visit! It's great! After the funeral we were dropping some stuff off at the apartment, and we met a guy named Frankie, who has met with missionaries before! So that was really cool. After that we had supper with Eric and Sonia Wheat. It was a really awesome supper. AFter supper we had a lesson with Donna. She's awesome. We had a great lesson on the priesthood, and what it's role is. It was a really awesome lesson.
This week made me really grateful for the Plan of Salvation. It brings great comfort to know where we are from, why we are here, and where we are going! The thing is, we have this knowledge, and the hope and peace that come from it, so why aren't we sharing it? Why should we be the only ones who know about it? We shouldn't be, that's the thing. It's our responsibility to go and bring this Plan to the rest of the world. That's what we should do. It'll be a great if you share it. It really builds your own testimony of it.
I love you all and I hope you have a wonderful week!

I stand in the ash of all I've ever loved, memories of a broken heart, now I'm alone in the dark! I know there's a way that when all hope is gone, but there's no way to do this on our own!
