Week 22

Week 5 of Transfer 4. The 2nd to last week of the transfer
Well I don't know what to write...

Bike Stats for the Week. I have an odometer and stuff now.
Total Mileage: 125.75 Miles
Mileage: 125.75 Miles
Avg Speed: 11.3 MPH
Max Speed: 30.1MPH
Moving Time: 11 Hrs. 7 Min. 41 sec

Yep... We spent a lot of time biking this week. Back and forth and to and fro from appt to appt. But we didn't actually have any set appts. We went around trying people cause they wouldn't answer their phones. I don't get it. If you have a phone, you should answer it. There is a reason that Cellular devices were invented. It is so they could fit in your pocket. Which means you should have it with you at all times so that people could get a hold of you.

The only set appointment we had this week was with a guy named Terrence. We got to his house cause he wasn't answering his phone... We got there and his house had burned down the night before. Yep... I know. Apparently we aren't supposed to get any set appointments. 

Well that's about all exciting that happened. WAit! The temperature dropped down and it was bad weather this weekend. And cold. And I was on exchanges with Elder Dominguez this weekend! WE had a lot of fun and got a lot of stuff done. He has been here as long as I have been. We came out together and we have been serving around each other for our entire missions. We had a good time!


Love y'all very much! Stay cool and remember to say your prayers and read you scriptures.

Week 21

Week 4 of Transfer 4. It was brought to my attention that I have been thinking that this has been transfer #3 and it's not... I am almost a quarter of the way done with my mission. 

This week was good, but I'll just highlight a few things that have happened.

All our investigators have pretty much dropped us so it was kind of a downer week. Maybe it was only for the New Year, but we will see

We found a lot of new investigators! We weren't able to meet with any of them more than once because of the Holidays, but we are going to follow up with a lot of them this week!

It was New Years this week! I won't be home at all this Year! I will be serving with 100% of my time. I am so excited! I invite all of you to consider this year. Nothing will happen until you set goals and make plans to accomplish those goals. You must do that to improve and the beginning of the New Year provides the perfect opportunity to do that! 

Love you all!
