i cant believe i have been in this area for a month already. crazy huh? just 2 more weeks til transfers and a new comp! haha


well this week wasn't ALL that great. i mean, its always awesome to go through another week as a missionary. it was just a little disappointing i guess. only one of the 7 people we had planned to go to church went. we had to tell one of our investigators that she had to start making progression or she couldn't be taught anymore. and a lot of appts didn't go through and it make my comp bored so there was a day he didn't really want to work so i went with elder padgett. that was probably the best day of the week cause we taught some good lessons together.


just a little bummer i guess..... but I'm gonna go into more detail of the investigator we dropped.... her name is Laura, shes 26, and she is not capable of moving her legs so she is in a wheelchair. and we have been teaching her since my first day here. and when we invite her to church she says no because her mom wont let her. so we told her to call her mom into the room so we could talk to her. and before we got a word out she flipped out on us and started yelling and saying the only reason she lets us come is because Laura doesn't have friends, and that there's no way shes ever gonna let her go to church.. it was super sad... so we cant go back to visit her.


but you know, you keep working. its annoying sometimes so not have good numbers at the end of the week even when you're working. but i know that not what is all about.

well family, i love you all. just remember that our "hard times" are just a tiny portion of the suffering of our Savior Jesus Christ. and that thanks to Him, we can make it through all of them. i know that to be true and i am so thankful for it. stay happy!!
