Chased a pig, played volleyball, baptism soon

Good week this week, me and Elder Shultis have been putting in work. 

 We played volleyball monday with our district which was fun. 

 One of the people we teach is getting baptized this saturday so thats exciting. She is a funny girl, she was saying the closing prayer and after said "I stopped to think about what I was thinking about, but realized I wasnt thinking at all" haha. 

 taught some other kids that night too. We chased a pig that was running around where we live to help out the family chasing it, after 45 minutes we got it. 

 Met a free mason which was cool. We had an appointment with a pastor we see and our born again christian buddy so that was cool. A member took us to a place we call the "woodhood" and we found a woman who we were able to set an appointment with. 

 We saw another man who previously once told us he would read a little of the Book of Mormon then make sure we got it back but once we saw him again he wanted to keep it. 

 Went to a ward party and ate a bunch of Chili. 

 Last night we were about to head home for the night but still had 30 minutes left. So we prayed someone would want to hear our message and open their door to us (since we always get people who just ignore us). First door we knocked on was a lady who really needed us at that time. 

 Our Heavenly Father loves answering prayers! Thats about it for this week,its been amazing with Heavenly Fathers help to see the people we teach progress. Love all of you. God bless!

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...
