9/26/16 Getting Colder Day by Day



So yeah as you can see from my title it is starting to colder day by day. I am not all that excited. Most people keep laughing at me for it. I am not ready! Anyways this week has been an adventure. We have literally no investigators. No one wants to really listen to two sweet girls! So his week we did a lot of knocking doors and trying to find people who would like to talk to us or doing what is called look ups.  We have been working so hard to do this. 

Ohh we got a new elder in the district! Elder McConkie left and Elder Asplund got a new companion.
His new companion is Elder Heiner from St George Utah. He went to a performing arts school when he was younger so you can guess his personality very theatrical about some things. He is interesting.
However the first time we talked to him we couldn't understand how he said his name so we called him Elder Shiner for a day or so. As well this week we went to another Mass. This one was the funeral for Victor the husband of Maria. It was super cool. The miracle was we had parked at the church which is a little ways a way the walked to the Catholic Church. Well the service ended at 8:51 so we ran back to our car literally running.... Hermana Johnston almost lost her name tag but found it quickly. Her magnet had fallen down her shirt so she just attached her name tag at her belly and kept running. We got in our car at 8:55 and were home by 8:59. Tender mercies of the lord we made where we needed to be on time. So that is my fun story for the week! 

This week we watched the general women's conference and I thought it was amazing. It was so fun to seat with branch members and together hear he words of the apostles. I love this time of year and the chance we get to get a little spiritual feeding from our apostles and prophets. My favorite was afterwards I wrote down my thoughts and impressions on what I need to work on. I learned so much. I would in courage each of you as conference is coming up go in with a question and then afterwards review your notes and ponder. Ponder what is being said to you and how you can improve. I know that as we use this time to ponder and reflect the Lord will give us guidance on what we can do
to become better.

I wish I had more to tell but this week was pretty simple and slow! I love you all and have a great week!
