August 31, 2015

So this week was a very eventful week!

Monday: had a good preparation day! we were able to get all the things done we needed to! Then we went out and tried a bunch of people, none were home! We spent most of the day at the apartment playing skip bo! this amazing card game!

Tuesday: We spent a lot of time on the bikes! We biked a lot from the house today! We were able to meet with some less actives but investigator wise none were home!

Wednesday: We had district meeting! We went to district meeting! And I learned a lot! Then we went on an exchange! I went with our district leader Elder Hansen! I learned so much from him! He was trained in the same area I was!

Thursday: We re exchanged back that morning, then we had weekly planning. Once we got home we had just enough miles in our car to go to church and back one time! So we rode our bikes from the house the rest the week! WE had one great lesson with our one Investigator with a baptismal date!

Friday: we went out and tried potentials and the referals we received from the hermanas when they came down on Tuesday! We got dumped on!!!!!! it was coming down in Sheets sideways! we got soaked!

Saturday: we mowed a members lawn! And spent a lot of time on our bikes! I was so wiped out everyday this week! We had one great lesson today!

Sunday: today was amazing! the Broughs came and spoke in sacrament and taught the 3rd hour on member missionary work! Doing your part is very important! The Broughs had us do a 5 minutes or less restoration lesson and we did it in 1 minute and thirty seconds! haha so then President Brough wanted to beat us and he did it in 29.4 seconds! Then we went out and we went and was on our way to see a less active to out run the rain and I got a flat tire on my bike!!!! So we sat at his house on his porch trying to patch it! Couldn't get it to patch so we had to walk home! it is a 3 mile trip! haha so we walked home and half of it in on the side of a 45 mile an hour highway1 haha it was interesting!

This week I learned to push through! Things are not always as easy as you want them to be but if you look at what you are going through and ponder it and pray about it you will come to understand why you were placed in the circumstances you are in!

I love yall and miss yall!

Sincerely,

 Elder Durfee
