Knocking on doors
This week has been very busy. We have done so much walking and traveling but its all for good use. My companion is so good to me and is a great example and a very hard worker! We have met a lot of weird people knocking and tracking, my comp. told me that he has been out for 10 months and hasn't experienced as many weird experiences as we have in these last 2 weeks. On the bus the other day and man told me that the Olympics were of the devil so that was different. But yesterday we had a cool experience. We were walking down a road after a couple hours of knocking we stopped a lady and started talking to her and at first she was saying that we have to many wives and that we are a colt, but we kept talking to her and the Lord softened her heart and we taught her the first lesson. She said she believed it all and we are going back to teach her more on Friday. We have a big football game planned in 2 weeks that I'm way excited for! For some reason the youth and YSA in our ward love to play basketball, so I'm playing a lot more basketball than football which kinda sucks, cause I want to play some real football! Today all of the zone is coming to Bath to see all the sites. Usually for P-Day we just go to a chapel and play basketball and volleyball. Another fun experience this week was when we were knocking and a man answer the door and he said he wasn't interested and we asked if he needed help with anything and we ended up tearing off wall paper for the next couple hours so that was fun! We are supposed to do about 3 hours of service a week. Sounds like everything is going well at home and its good to hear! If I were to give any future missionaries advice it would be to enjoy being with your family. The thing I miss most is definitely my family! Thanks for all your prayers they really do help. Hunter is going to love school. Keep up the good work in soccer Heber. I have talked with a lot of people here about football a lot of people love Tottenham around here and Liverpool. The mission is the hardest thing i have ever done but i have also learned so much in so little time! I love you all and I thank you all for being great examples to me. I wouldn't be out here if it weren't for you. Tell grandma happy b-day! It is finally sunny today! It feels so good to be in the sun! It has been raining so much and now there is not a cloud in the sky. Love all of you, hope you have a great week!!
