Monday
We had a
fun day today. It was our P-Day so we went shopping for all of the stuff that
we needed for the upcoming week. Then one of our favorite members by the names
of Mike and Terri Smith took us out to dinner with some of their friends, so in
total there were 12 of us dinning together at the restaurant. After that we had
a Conference call with all of our mission at 9:30 and it was really good we
learned a lot about how we should be communicating with our stake presidents.
Tuesday
Today we
had a Conference with our mission president and all of the training
missionaries. It was basically just them telling all of the new missionaries
who is who and where they need to go for specific information. Other than that
we went to a ward party tonight and managed to set some appointments up
throughout the day.
Wednesday
Today we
huddled with the Waldners and discussed with them what we are doing in their
stake as well as what they are doing. We had some time between the end of our
huddle and the service project that was assigned to us by the mission so we
played some pool with Elder Waldner while we waited to go. That mainly happened
because it would have been very ineffective to try and proselytize during the
basically half hour that we had before we had to leave to make it to the
service project on time. We then had a ministering appointment after that and
then our day ended.
Thursday
So it's
a bit late as I am writing this email so it will be short. Today we packed all
day because me and my companion are getting kicked out of our house tomorrow
due to a baby being born shortly. So it has been a frenzy to get everything
packed up so that we can move. So that is how we spent most of our day but for
the last 5 hours from 4 to 9 pm we got to go to the temple due to Halloween and
all. This was because the mission president did not want us to be out on the
streets on Halloween night.
Friday
Today we
had MDC or Multi District Council and we learned about how best to use members
to their fullest. We learned how to teach how to pray and how best to use the
Book of Mormon. After that we moved which took up the rest of the day and we
went on exchanges once more. From tonight to tomorrow night.
Saturday
So today
started out fairly normally with all the normal things. But it got slot more
interesting with a surprise service that we participated in from 8 to 9 then
after dinner we went to a non-member with intent of giving our condolences for
the loss of his wife. We went there with one scripture in mind to share with
him and it was John 16:33 which says "These things I have spoken unto you,
that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be
of good cheer; I have overcome the world." and I know that he loved that
scripture and was touched that we shared it with him even though he is a very
smart very anti LDS. That was my day we finished our splits and then we went to
bed.
Sunday
Today
was a pretty good day although very tiring. The day started out fairly normally
with fast Sunday and all so we went to 3 sacraments today and in each one of
them I got up and bore my testimony in each of them. After that we had a
meeting with one of our Stake Presidents to discuss what we would be doing in
their stake and what we have been doing after that we met with a member family
to discuss one of our previously taught non-members. Then we had dinner two
other ministering appointments and a coronation meeting with our high Councilor
over missionary work and then our day ended.
