Hello,
Glad
you guys have been having some good times. I'm happy everything ended
up well with Courtney's wedding. Thank you so much for all of the
pictures. It's nice to see everyone. Dan looks really spiffy in a suit.
Looks like you all had a good time.
It's
been a good week for me. Our branch mission leader is back from
vacation. So it's been awesome having him back to help with some of the
coordination.
We
had New Year's this week. Since New Year's Eve isn't a great time to
proselyte we had to go back a little early. We were allowed to stay up
until 11:00 but I was tired so I ended up just going to bed at 10:00
anyway. Someone gave us a bottle of Martinelli's sparkling cider for
Christmas so we just drank that before we went to bed.
We
got back in contact with Silvia this week. She was one of our former
progressing investigators. We lost contact with her over the holidays.
We had a nice lesson with her and have another appointment with her
soon. We're trying to get a member of the branch to come help
fellowship. We've got one sister in the branch that lives really close
to her that we're hoping on but we've got another member as a backup if
she can't come. So I'm hoping that'll all turn out.
We're
allowed to go to the temple twice a year. We go to the Oakland temple
which is about an hour outside of our mission. I just finished planning,
getting permission and confirming a temple trip for tomorrow. So we're
pretty excited for that. We'll be going with some members to a 10:00 am
session so we'll be able to get back before lunch. So we won't end up
losing too much time for it.
It's
been a fun week though. We've talked to some interesting people. Some
lady ran up to talk to us. We talked for a while and we realized that
she seems to have something like schizophrenia. She ended up following
us for a long time and we just talked to her until we got back to our
bikes and just told her we had to go and biked off.
A
member gave us a hot sauce called "100% pain". I put it all over my
food, but Elder Bishop wasn't as convinced. It was hot, but it was
all right.
Anyway I hope you have a great week.
Love,
Elder Jones
