Hey guys!
This week was pretty good! On Tuesday we
had the transfers so most of the day was spent trying to figure that out and
getting people where they need to go. Then, for the last part of the day we walked around West Seneca and tried to
contact some of our potentials.
As for the rest of the week of
missionary work we have spent a lot of time trying to find new people to teach
here in west Seneca, down over by the lake, and also in parts of Orchard Park.
It's kinda what the whole district is doing right now just trying to find
people to teach.
All we really had was the Mashburns, but
now that they are baptized the ward had really done a good job of taking them
in. So a lot of tracting has been done the past week. The bishops son had his
eagle project on Friday and Saturday so we went and help with that and he had a
ton of support. A big portion of the ward was there and all of the youth to
help. So it was a really good activity and great opportunity to fellowship with
the members some more. The youth in this ward are really fun and most of them
are planning on going to Utah State after their missions. One is actually
signed to play football there, so that will be cool to have that connection
with them when they go there. Then we went with bishop’s home teacher to help take
some stumps out of bishops yard which was a lot of help to him because he is a
super busy man!
Saturday night we had stake conference and
Elder Coonie of the Seventy was presiding there and we rode with the Alessi's
up to that and they had to stay after for an interview so I got to have a
little one on one conversation with him while they were in the interview which
was really neat!
Also the missionaries in the stake were
the choir so we got to do that. Then after conference we went to the bishops
with the other missionaries and the Hughletts from the ward and had dinner and games and that was a lot of fun! He said
it was a get to know the missionaries better/ family fun so that
was great!
I've really got to know the members even
better this last week and things are going great! Last transfer I kinda just
let Elder Self do what he wanted to do because arguing wouldn't help at all but
now I've got another new companion and it's nice to start doing things
differently again and it seems to be going good.
Also all four of us missionaries in the
ward like to play basketball so a couple mornings a week at 6 we go play at the
church and the youth have seminary then so they come and played a little bit
with us and today after school since it's right across the street from the
church all of the youth are coming to play with us so that should be a lot of
fun!
Have a great week!
Love ya!
