Week 73. This is a great work

 One thing I forgot in last week's email was Saturday's breakfast. A member in the stk presidency feeds all the missionaries in the Zone. Afterwards we all played soccer in their backyard for 30 min. It was pretty fun. 

Anywho, here's the highlights for this week:

Jesse - we tracted into Jesse and he was super nice. Liked our message on eternal families and wanted us to come back. It was super cool and we should see him this week. 

accidental service then volleyball - we picked up 2 other Elders for volleyball, and so we were going to grab them, get dinner, and then play. But it turned out they were helping someone move, so we hopped in and it was pretty fun. And then nobody came for volleyball. I'm seeing a theme here and I don't like it. 

Shanda - she lives at an old member's address and asked us to come back. So we did... multiple times. They were just always busy doing something. So we finally got her number and will hopefully meet them this week. 

Exchanges on Friday - I went with Elder Sorensen in the Spanish area, but every person we met that day also spoke English, so that was nice. But I got to say hi to a couple of their friends and have beef stroganoff for dinner so that was awesome. 

what I missed - my companion and the other Elder went off. It worked perfectly. They were meeting with the random lady I talked about last week and apparently she didn't know as much English as we thought, but the Spanish Elder was able to answer all their questions about the purpose of life, how to repent, and more. I missed out on an awesome lesson but I'm so glad because I know it was all part of God's plan. 

Richard - we saw him Saturday and we were able to talk and share a message with him. The really cool thing was how much his attitude changed. Before his attitude was of someone who was trying it just because they had nothing else, but this time he sincerely wanted to listen and come to church. Sadly we couldn't find him a ride in time but we will next week.
