Service!

This week has been a week of service. We probably did about 24 hours worth of service this week. For members, Less Active, and investigators. I remember back home in the fall time when we would go as YM and YW to rake leaves for all the widows or elderly people in the ward and we would fill up a couple truck loads. On Friday this week, we raked this investigators lawn and had to put all the leaves in bags.. it took from 11:30-7:30.. basically all day.. we were not expecting that. It ended up being 40 bags of leaves.. wow! Also her neighbor came and helped for a little and she is really into family history and will be going to the family history center this week,  she showed up just before Church to meet the people in the ward, she couldn't stay for the meeting but hopefully we'll see her again. Church this week was at 5:30 in the evening and was only sacrament because they had a big bike race going on until 4 so all the roads were closed. That made it a little tough because a lot of our investigators couldn't come at that time. My companion is doing wonderful, getting  better at english everyday, just have to remind him to try and keep things clean! haha I love him!  We are playing footy again this week for P-Day.. I love it!!! Sounds like everything is going well back home! Thanks for everything, have a brilliant week!! Cheers!!
