Well,
for the past week I can only describe my week as crazy, I have been in a
trio companionship for the past week and a half, and it was an awesome
time, I basically had to stay with some Elders that live with the Zone
Leaders, so we had 5 Elders in 1 apartment, we had a fun time doing
stuff, and one of the Elders I was with got Dear Johned, and it was his
first break up, and he had no idea how to handle it and what made it
worse for him is that she wrote a letter to him, and then wrote an email
to him saying and I qoute "Oh, yeah, this is everything that I forgot in
my letter" and he got the email before the letter, so for 2 days he
could not function at all and basically we went to sonic and bought 7-10
milk shakes each(59 total, we had a ton of coupons and a member gave us
a 50 % discount during at happy hour) and we pounded them till he felt
better, and he was on such a sugar high that we decided to reenact the
best 2 years.
After that we
covered both of our wards, mainly theirs because they were low on miles,
we are given a set number of miles for that month, and they were really
low, so we covered their ward until the miles reset. I went
down the hill for the last 2 days, and was Spanish for those days till I
got my Greenie, and we had to go up the hill that night, and we had to
fit 3 greenies luggage in a Chevy Cruz and go up the hill with 4 elders
in the Cruz as well, needless to say after some 3D tetris we managed to
fit everything and everyone. We got up here and it was like 7 at
night when we got up the hill. The roads were so bad (it was election
day) that we left at 5:30 and didn't get back till 7 pm and we had to
greenie shop, and we have been busy ever since. We got to go and learn an
area. Oh, and an Elder that was Spanish that died that transfer, Left his
GPS and his comp didn't want it so I got a free GPS, and it has saved
our butts so many times already, we put every ward member's address and
every investigators and potential in it, and we were able to go and see
if people still had a pulse and still lived there. We have a new ward
mission leader, our old one wanted us to get 20 lessons a week, in an
area that we could only get 2 lessons a week , and he didn't even give
us the time of day, but our new one has been more then helpful. He gave
us a split calendar and an updated ward list (ours was out of date, and
we asked for one when I first got here) and he his been keeping a
growing list of people that past missionaries taught that we could go
visit so we should be on the up and up and that is all of what has
happened in the past week.
love you all,
from,
Ammon
