Five Guys . . .

Been a great week this week! This morning we hiked up a trail called "Tablerock" which was sweet. 

Monday-Got our bikes fixed up, replaced the frame, saw my boy Ken at the bike shop which was awesome, a family gave us a box of 30 Book of Mormons too. 

Tuesday-Taught one family, helped a family move furniture, then we went to lunch with a return missionary who also happens to be my boy who served in Mesa and taught me many things, studied, then taught an older gentleman. Then we taught a boy who just got baptized, then we knocked some doors and found 2 more people to teach.

Wednesday-Lead my second district council and our mission president and his wife came in and we had interviews. Had lots of people not come through for appointments. Then we had a big good dinner and watched dogs for a women we teach. Then we taught another family about why Christ is important. 

Thursday-Planned, did service at the warehouse, got a boy we teach to a church activity, then gave a lady a blessing, then taught a couple more people

Friday-Did more service for donations for refugees, then we taught a family, visited some more people, then went to five guys with a family, then we saw another family and taught them

Saturday-Morning sucked, so apparently I ate a burger with someone who didn't wash their hands so I spent the morning puking and pooping. Our medical guy made sure to emphasize "You did not get food poisoning, you ate poop. You ate poop!". So I was like "Yeah poop tatses great in a five guys burger". Then after a 2 hour nap we got up and we had a cool ward activity with some people that we have planned for a while. Got to teach people and help them learn how to invite others to come to Christ. 

Sunday-Yesterday was busy busy busy as Sundays always are. Had meetings, church, teaching classes, studying, then appointments and a great lesson last night. We have 3 upcoming people that we will baptize hopefully sooner then later.

Other then Saturday this week was awesome. Its seriously always a good day as a missionary. Not easy really, but super joyful. Its so cool to see people go from "yeah this isnt true" to a few appointments later they say "god really did send you guys to me". Its been amazing to be really gods hands in the work he does on earth. I love you all and I do my best to pray for lots of you! Keep a positive attitude and keep doing great things! Heavenly Father is real, and watches over us all!

9/2: we played sports with a bunch of other missionaries. A member of the church from Mountain Home got us dinner at Tucanos which was great 9/3: Elder Nelson woke up sick. A member called and told us how we had "P day then Poo day". Since I didnt want to sit around all day me and one of the missionaries that lives with us went out. We had a good study/talk about how our heart needs to be in the right place as we follow Christ. It's useless just going through the motions. We volunteered at the Idaho Youth Ranch, then gave a lady a blessing.  9/4: Nothing crazy, just studied in the bible with one man we're teaching 9/5: After studying we got into our minivan and Elder Nelson tried turning the key and it wouldn't turn in the ignition. He tried a couple times and then I tried once and we were good to go. We helped a man move a bunch of rocks with buckets. Then that evening we helped a family move stuff from a storage shed.  9/6: Had a Council with so...

Been a great week this week, got tons of stuff done as always.  Monday  we played volleyball and some chair soccer with our district.  Tuesday  me and Elder Thompson started off the day with some studies at the church.  We felt prompted to bring 2 book of mormons with us to the church building. We brought them and while we studied 3 refugees from Kenya came up to the door, they needed directions and we helped them then we taught them about the book of mormon and they wanted not one book, but two.  Later that day we were making visits and we spotted a wiener dog running around. Work was going slow so we decided to follow it. As we were following the dog we thought of a boy we could go visit. A mile later this dog ran to the door of the boys house we were gonna go in. Then the boy opened the door and it happened to be his dog a mile away. Pretty interesting haha.  Then we aqgain felt like grabbing a book of mormon and carrying it with us which is n...
