Well this week was.......cold, haha its finally starting to cool down here in Washington haha. But all is well up here in the north. Its awesome to be able to see the weather changing. Now its not 500 degrees outside and im actually starting to put on a sweater haha.

Monday of this week we just had our normal p-day and went and were supposed to have a lesson with the Greenlands but they canceled on us which was not cool. so we decided to go around and street contact until we go to the place where we wanted to tract, the only problem with this is that it started to downpour on us and we didn't have anything for protection so we ended up running back to the apartment to grab some stuff so that we wouldn't catch pneumonia haha. but we went and tracted for a bit and talked to a few people about the gospel just going about and doing good as always.

 Tuesday was way fun we go to go and help paint this less active ladies house it was fun except the house was a little disgusting and she may have been a bit of a hoarder.... yeah way fun. But afterwards was even better. So our mission and apparently missions all over the united states are starting this program called just serve where missionaries have to do ten hours of community service and we aren't allowed to talk about the gospel and or preach we are just supposed to serve hence the name. So one of our service projects was to work at this place called the ARC, its a home for mentally disabled people, it was the funniest thing EVER!!! we got to play games with them and talk and do stuff it was a blast! I got my butt kicked in UNO but i dominated in sorry haha it was way awesome to be able to interact with them and the workers there. Its a humbling experience to be able to help them and talk with them, makes you appreciate what you have and the privileges we have to be able to function. We then had dinner with Ben and Madi and shared Alma 7 with them (favorite chapter of scripture EVER!) it was awesome then spent the rest of the night tracting.

Wednesday we had district meeting and we talked about using the atonement daily in our lives and constantly repenting to have the spirit with us it was way awesome. Nothing really happened after that we just basically spent the whole day tracting and nothing really came of it jsut talked to alot of people.


Thursday we were on exchanges with the zone leaders but they had a lot of stuff to do so the whole first part of the exchange was the doing their stuff and me and elder crewse sitting and playing the piano haha. then we tried by a few potentials and tracted a bit. Edler Palmer is way awesome he is our new zone leader and he is new to being a zone leader so its kind of interesting, but he will do good hes from cedar city so not to far away we had a lot of fun knocking of rich peoples door and them teling us to get lost haha it was the best!

Friday we had weekly planning all day and service painting again after that so nothing really went on that day

Saturday we had service up at badger mountain which was way fun we got to haul dirt all morning and build a trail! We didn't really have anything else to do that day so we spent it street contacting and trying buy old investigators and tracting all day we did meet some interesting people but they weren't interested.

Sunday we had a lesson with the Greenland for a bit and tracted a lot haha we are trying to find more people to teach :) and yeah just another day in the life of a missionary love you all :)
