Monday: we had a great and productive preparation day! we
were able to see a less active, and also we tried a lot of potentials. none
seemed to want to answer the door!
Tuesday: we had a really good day! We Tried a bunch of
people we had met in the past weeks and none were home. so we then had a great
lesson with this investigator we found that we had a hand off lesson with the
Hermanas Because the investigator is Spanish. Then we were able to go and meet
with a bunch of great new people. Then we had dinner at a members! Then we went
home after helping him load and unload some hay in and out of his truck. It was
like back at home for me!
Wednesday: We had a really early morning!!! We got up and
4!!! We got ready then drove to the LaGrange Elders apartment. so they could
drive us to Louisville to meet the rest of the district and the Assistants to
take us to Lexington, for a zone conference with Elder Zwick!!! It was a very
powerful meeting!!! learned so much!!! We need to know that we know! and don't
look back!!! We got home around 8:30 so it was an all day deal! but it was very
spiritually uplifting!!!
Thursday: We got up and went to Sanders to try this guy for
our appointment that wasn't there! :( but then we drove home and had weekly
planning! Then we went and tried some of our investigators and had to drop them
all because they just aren't taking us serious! so we are having to start all
over with 0 investigators! but I know that as we get out there and work hard
and have faith that the Lord will provide a way for his work to go on!
Friday: we got up and mowed a members lawn, then we hustled
to another members for lunch! WE got to EAT GATOR TAIL and FROG LEGS!!!!! it
was super good! They said next time we will eat rabbit! Then we went out trying
potentials! Then we had dinner with a member we had deep fried chicken and mac
and cheese and corn puddin. Then we tried some more potentials.
Saturday: We went and set up the church building for Sunday.
Then we had lunch and after lunch we tried more potentials. We have been trying
to find more and more people and it has been a test of our patience and
diligence and faith. But I know that as we exercise faith that we will
see the results of our efforts.
Sunday: we had a great service! the talks were all great!
they were focused on the importance of the sacrament! Then all of the lessons
were focused on missionary work! and The change in the branch presidency is
awesome! today was the happiest and talkative I have ever seen the members
here!!! it was amazing! I see great things coming this way! But then we ended
the day trying more of our investigators they weren't home. so we went and saw
some of or less active members.
Patience is something really hard to master, but if we
master it the rest follows in behind it. As we are patient it shows our faith.
I love and miss you all! I hope everything is going great!
Love,
Elder Durfee
