Monday's News

HEY FOLKS!!!!!
 
Oh just another wonderful week on the block of Union II. Just wonderful as always. We worked very hard this week. Nothing super funny or exciting this week. Today i bought two new ties. i got a package from shannon. with a tie and lots of melted chocolate. haha. And a letter from Rebecca Kitzmiller, well it was a christmas card. she was on seminary council with me. and dads letter. as always. thanks pops. just working hard, its a little difficult cause now i have senior comp responsibilites which i didnt have alot of before. My companion is senior comp but  he doesnt know the area and stuff so i am doing all the planning, calling, everything. its good for me. keeps my head in the work. the spanish is alot better. i got alot of compliments on my spanish this week. everyone thought i had been here for more than a year cause of how good i can speak. the lord has really blessed me. they also think that i am training my companion. they think he is new. they always ask him if he is new on the mission. and the people think i am like 24 years old here. they never believe me when i say 19. haters. haha jk. its good tho. i love the mission.
I did buy a new packpack. everything is good here. just keep trucking along. Ol mom you are just always so busy with things. look at you go. you and ol dad are just keeping the family running. haha. I dont ever hear from laurie or daniel haha. suckers. but i did talk to ol nate about the dating thing. hey dan if you are reading this, did you complete with your committment? better have boy. but stuff on the mission is good.
 
So i had a cool experience saturday. All of our appointments at 8 oclock fell through. me being the one to find something to do at this point, i had no idea. so we started doing street contacts. no success. there was no one in the street. litterally. so i stopped and said a prayer in my heart. asking heavenly father if he could bless me with inspiration to find someone to teach. I had two people pop into my head. an old contact that we found knocking doors, and another old contact that we could never find home. We tried the first one, nothing. so i thought to myself "their is no way we are going to find anyone", we knock the door of the second person down the street. He answers the door. I asked if he had 15 minutes to talk. He said yes. He let us in. An answer to my prayers and a testimony to you all that the lord does answer prayers. The lord listens to our prayers. He always listens.  keep praying and doing the good things. love you all
