To
sum up this week in two words, it would be hectic and service. Trying to send
packages home to enable me to be in the "recommended" weight limit
for flight home, which was done sucessfully. One box i was going to use would
have cost nearly $50 to send, luckily, the post worker let me reorganize it
into a flat rate. Phew...crisis averted
Helped with Kay
Stegman varnish her front deck. Nearly 4 hours later, she feeds us and gives us
each a free fishing pole, now we need to find a lake or get our permit to fish.
Attempted the FHE again, unfortunately it was another bust. We will need to start
resending the "mass text" FHE reminders so everyone can attend.
Decided to have another slumber party to save mileage with Marion. Lately ive
been having this rash-like-itch which i am trying to get rid of, but when i
sleep, sometimes i itch during the night, thats what a Benedryl is for. Trying
everything to get rid of it, even contacted the mission doctors. Thinking is a
large attack of chiggers, but not so sure, were workin on fixin it.
After D Meeting, had
the realization that I have only one more left before im home. This upcomming
week will have one, then final wednesday before flight home is Interviews which
override the meeting. Gonna be a spiritual meeting for sure.
Had some great visits
with a few people. Set a 4th baptismal date with Rebekah. However, we goofed in
setting it for August rather than July, but it can always be moved forward.
Helped an investigator
move his grandmother into the vacant apartment beneath us. The day of the
service, the Zone Leaders text inquiring if could join us for
studies...uhh...never done it with zone leaders before, stated we were doing
service which should have started around 9, but didnt till nearly 11. Helping
her move in, it touched her heart in which she responded that she will join us
for church services soon
Visited with Joe
Philips whom lives with the Parkers, whom is on schedule for baptism NEXT
SUNDAY, the first one in Cadiz!!! Exchanges are occurring this week and Im
heading BACK TO HOPTOWN while the DL comes and interviews Joe. Ill miss out in
the meal, but having a reunion with those whom i first met before i head home
will be great and memorable.
Helped a member move
out. Reminded me of the Gallatin move. However, this one it was one moving, but
she is still moving cross country to Cheyenne Wyoming.
Trackted and found
someone who may potentially be taught. Asked for service and/or referrals in
which he responded his neighbor is old and my like some, we offer, in which she
accepts. Service always have a way to soften everyones heart.
Sunday was very
spiritual. We had a special guest attend the services, the first councelor of
the mission presidency. Due to his attendance, all 6 of us missionaries sang.
Loved every minute of it
So this week, other
than service and my continual itching, all has been well. I find it ironic that
E Rivera was talking about hiking Bells Canyon and "accidentally"
found a geocache yet my family just hiked it and is convincing me to do the
hike. Not to say im trunkie, but i am. On the iPad, my wallpapers are that of
the Manti Temple due to attending the pagaent. Due to amount of time in the
Manti region, a session may not be possible, but just walking into it to take
part of the Spirit within is something that i hope will be done.
This upcomming week
due to the exchange will be memorable. Cant wait for it to occur. Till next
time
