August 10, 2015

Monday: we had a great preparation day. it was kinda boring not a lot of fun activities to do. but we did get all of the needed things done for the week. but all of our appointments fell through! :(

Tuesday: we had district meeting! it was very informational! I learned a lot! Then we were able to meet some less active members in Bedford that most of the branch hasn't met with in a while! and we also met with an investigating family! then we had a great dinner with a member! Then we tried to see our investigators and none were home!

Wednesday: We went and got an appraisal for how much it would cost to fix our car. then we tired some people that canceled on us. then we went out to sanders and saw more less actives, had some good lessons with them! then we tried some potentials then saw more members.

Thursday: We weekly planned!!! Then we saw more potentials and less actives. then we spent a lot of time on the bikes trying to find new people.

Friday: I was on an exchange in LaGrange area! it was a great day! we got to meet some awesome new people down in some hollows! and some less active members. we spend a lot of time on the bikes. it feels nice riding the bike.

Saturday: We had a good lesson in the mormoing with a person Elder Stevens found on the exchange. then we met wit ha less active. and got her information to give to the branch clerk. Then we went and met a guy that lives with a less active, and we set up an appointment with him for this next week. Then we met this omish girl and her friend. and her fried said a chanting prayer for us. it was super weird! Then we ended the day with a very spiritual lesson with a less active watching the restoration DVD.

Sunday: we had a great church service!!! and we got a new branch presidency!!! so we will see how the changes go! I'm excited for this branch! Then we went and tried some people. none were home. so we went and saw another less active member. she was super negative about me and the branch and was being very rude. so we were going to leave then she told us to get out. so we left. haha people just don't understand sometimes. its sad.

This week I learned that as longa s we are doing what we are doing for the right reasons and with a whole heart it will happen the way it needs too!  Even though it may get discouraging but we must continue with faith!  

I love and miss you all! I can't believe I've been out for almost a year now! it doesn't feel that long!!!

Love, Elder Durfee
