One cool story and a boring week



Well this week was pretty boring. Really- I didn't do anything that big but it's good. The zone is kinda turning things around but I'm not quite sure what is needed right now. We need to make sure that we can keep everyone focused.
Well this week we did have one cool experience. But it wasn't spiritual or anything. We were walking to Ward Council and on the main street we just see this huge crowd looking at a roof. As we walk closer we see a guy on the roof with a pistol. He's aiming it at another guy and yelling at him to put his hands up. It truly was sick. Obviously we didn't just stick around to just watch but I wanted to. But when we walked on we saw lots of people watching but we never heard shots or anything. The police were there and helping the guy with the gun so I guess he was a cop too. But cool story right?
Other than that things are going pretty slowly. We have some people praying and even fasting to know if they should be and are ready to be baptized so I'm excited to see what we can get out of that.
Also I had an interview with President Dennis and once again, I loved it. I could talk to him all day. He's such a great help. Plus it was cool to talk to the office guys about whats been going on there.
Well everyone write me or e-mail me.

Miracles



So this week I'm really thankful for miracles that come from Fasting and Obedience and also for my companion.
All week we had trouble teaching investigators but we found lots of less actives so we took advantage of what was there and we taught them but I was worried about church on Sunday. But then out of nowhere, on Saturday night the assistants asked if they could help us take people to church and I was kinda thinking dang this is going to be embarrassing. But we did it and out of nowhere people came. We had 6 in church and 3 with baptismal dates. So things are picking up big time and I'm super excited to see what is going to happen in the next coming weeks cause conference is just going to make it better.
Elder Criddle is doing super great and seriously is way farther ahead of where the rest of the newbies are. Seriously so much better than I was at that point. So it's a blessing to see that excitement and hard work and dedication. It helps motivate me even more and keeps me working hard. Also he reminds me of the little things that I sometimes have pass by. But seriously its great to work with him.
But I know that things go great when we work hard and trust in the Lord now we just gotta keep focusing on the most important parts and the Lord will bless us even more. Either way we just gotta lose ourselves in the work.
Today I was thinking and I need to stop stressing about stuff that doesn't matter. I am going to start asking myself if this is going to matter in 5 years. Cause if not, it doesn't really matter much. But either way, being happy is the most important part.
Conference this week- it will be great!
