Tuesday we helped Sister Acord load a trailer, and she's off. She's moving, and there was a lot of stuff, but we got it all loaded! We had supper at the Whitehead's and then had a lesson with Analyn. She's super excited for her baptism this week. It's going to be a lot of fun. We had a meeting with Bishop that night for a finding idea that will happen in the next week or so.
Wednesday was cool. We had district meeting. It was really cool, and then sister Winfield made lunch for the whole district! It was awesome. We had Pansit, which is a really good Filipino dish. After district meeting we went and had a lesson with Brenda. She's doing good, we just want her to come to church! It was a really good lesson. That's the only thing that was exciting that happened.
Thursday was cool. We had lunch with Joe at DQ. It was really good, and then we went and helped Sister Winfield out a little bit. It was awesome. We helped her rearrange her front room, and then we had a discussion about gospel topics. Pretty good stuff. We had supper with Willie and Bev, and we were able to teach one of Bev's friends that came for supper! She's excited to learn more. After supper we went and saw Mark. He's doing good, and we're meeting with him again tonight.
Friday was pretty fun. We weekly planned, and then we went to the SPCA. It was a lot of fun. After that we went and helped Shannon paint Kahlon's room. It was just in need of a fresh coat of paint. It was really good. Nothing too crazy happened after that, but it was a good day.
Saturday was the crazy day. We drove out to Cotillion yet again to help Tag some Bison. Bison are big, but you don't realize how big until you're right up next to it putting a tag in it's ear. It was crazy. In the afternoon we drove back to Dawson Creek, and had the baptismal interview for Analyn, and then we went back to Cotillion to finish up tagging. It was great. We got a bunch of ground bison to take home, so we won't have to shop for a while! It was a really fun day.
Sunday was ward conference. The Stake Presidency was there, and they gave really good talks. It was a really good day at Church. After church we had a potluck, and then we went and gave Heather the sacrament and had a lesson. It was really good. The rest of the day nobody was home, nobody's ever home on a Sunday! It was good none the less.
Monday was Pi day! Sadly, I didn't have any pie! We went to the salvation army thrift store, and there's a new manager! We got to meet him, and then we did our stuff. After that we had lunch, and helped Brother Otto put up a new wall in his house. It was really fun. We were asked by the Stake Secretary to put Windows 7 on the Family history centre computers, So we were going to, but we got a text from the Sisters in Fort St. John telling us that a member from there was in the hospital and wanted a blessing! So we went and gave her a blessing, and then we taught a lesson to another guy who was in there. He's willing to give the Book of Mormon a chance, and he wants to learn more! It was incredible. AFter that we had supper with the Leslie's and Shannon and her kids and Sister Winfield. We had a pretty good lesson after. We headed out to the Ward's after that for a lesson, and then went to bed! It was a really busy day.
This week was really good. I learned a lot. I think I learned most of all that serving people is good. You don't have to have any reason for it, just go and serve! It's a lot of fun You get to see other people become happier, and it helps you be happier as well! It is the best way to help yourself become more charitable and more Christ-like. I guarantee it!
Have a wonderful week.
Love
Elder Rusty Lofthouse
