Tuesday we ate Supper with the Whitehead's. That's really all that happened. nothing too exciting.
Wednesday was exciting. We drove to Grande Prairie for the World-wide missionary training. It was awesome. We got some really good material to work on. It'll help a ton. After that we had a ZTM on using time wisely and finding people to teach. It was actually really awesome! After that Elder Chadsey and I went on exchanges. We drove back to Dawson Creek, and had supper with the Johnston's. We had some super good Chinese food. Again, Nothing too exciting happened after that.....
Thursday was awesome. We helped a lady named Pat move some stuff out of her house. It was really funny. She's an older lady and she kept telling us not to hurt ourselves lifting the 'heavy boxes'. It was awesome. After that we got a call from a Member asking if we would be able to help clean out Patrick Leslie's apartment. So we went to help. It was really kind of nasty, but it was good. After that we had supper with Willie and Bev, and we had a great lesson with them. Then we went and visited Joe after that. We had a great lesson with him. After that we hurried over to Steve and Michelle's and had a good lesson on the Plan of Salvation with them. It went really well. After all of that insane business, we drove out to Spirit River and exchanged back.
Friday we did weekly planning. After weekly planning, we drove around because it snowed looking for people to help shovel their walks. We met a guy named Jason, and helped him shovel. It was awesome. He told us to come back, and then he gave us a Moose Heart..... yes... a heart. We're going to cook it up this week!
Saturday we shoveled ALL DAY!! It was awesome. We helped a couple of older members shovel, and then we helped some random people shovel. It was great. After supper we went and shoveled the church walk..... it took forever. But it was good.
Sunday was awesome. We went to church and all that fun stuff. After Church we went to Heather's place and gave her the Sacrament. We went and had lunch, and then visited Jill Wonnacott, a member that lives in Pouce Coupe, a village about 15 minutes outside of Dawson Creek. We had a good visit with her, and then we went back to Heather's for a lesson. It went really well. After supper we went and had a lesson with Amber. It also went really well. It was just a really good day.
Monday we went to the Salvation Army to volunteer. It was great. We went and hung clothes and put a bunch of items out on the floor. It was really cool, we got to talk to a lot of people. After that we went and got an oil change, and then we drove back out to Pouce Coupe to try and contact a member. We met a lady named Taylor, and she told us to come back later this week! It was awesome. After that we went and had supper with the Wheat's. It was great, as usual. Then we drove and had a lesson with the Ward's. It was a really good lesson on the Sacrament. It was all in all, a really good day.
This week was just a really good week. It's been a pretty productive week, but it felt kind of slow. I think that the lesson I learned this week was that no matter what you are doing, how you feel, or what is going on around you, if you keep on going you will succeed. No matter what. Keep on keepin' on. Even if nothing around you is working out, If nothing around you looks anything like success, you have to keep the faith and believe that one day is going to be your day. That's all. Have a wonderful week!
Love you lots!
