The Temple is Back!

This week was really awesome!! 

It started out with Zone Conference and the 2 zones that were there got their phones all set up and ready. They are still having some problems with them but we have some ballin tech missionaries that get all that stuff figured out. We got to teach at Zone Conference as well which was a lot of fun

This week we went on Exchanges with the Elders down in the Broadway District. I went with Elder Bowers and Elder Dowdle (who is my mom and my brother.....mission language is weird). They are both excellent missionaries and we saw some pretty cool miracles. We felt like we should stop by this less actives house and he said he had been thinking of us and we taught them and they are going back to church now!

I told them to not look like tourists

We got our car towed while we were on exchanges hahahaha Woe is me. I'm going to be broke by the end of the mission or figure out where I can park my car.

We did a ton of tracting and biking around to try to find new investigators this week. Biking around is literally my favorite thing in the mission because you talk to some crazy people. This week we had this guy telling us that there were 2 creations before Adam and Eve and their names were "Male and Female". He had a verse to back it up too! (Genisis 1:27) But hey now we know he is one of those people that reads the first chapter of the Bible and gives up.

Biking Around

The coolest experience this week was on Sunday. We were super busy with meetings and we were at the church from 9 in the morning until 8 at night. The reason for that was because our Stake put on a temple rededication celebration. It was one of the coolest things I have got to be a part of! The missionaries sang a musical number in Spanish so you would be proud mom haha! The Spirit was super strong and everyone was so happy to have a temple again! I know it is the Lord's house in a very real sense.

Thats about it for this week! I'm having a good time and learning lots of things! Love you all and talk to you next week!

Mom’s Questions:

Your companion was sick last week, is he feeling better?

My companion is feeling fine now. 

Was your companion already in your area when you were transferred in?
Elder Toledo was in the area for 6 weeks before I got here

Do you currently have any investigators?

We have 2 people on date for May that should work out. Other than that, we are still looking for people to work with

What goals have you set as a zone?

Well one thing I wanted to do as a Zone is help missionaries achieve their weekly goals so we have been following up with that. Our District Leaders do a really good job at following up so they are the bomb. 

Our mission is reading the Book of Mormon in 65 days while we take a break from Facebook to get focused on our purpose again. It is 8 pages a day and we started on Sunday. I would love to do it with you guys and hear what you guys are learning!

What goals have you personally set?

Personally, I have been memorizing scriptures so I carry one around a week on a 3x5 card to memorize.

How many members in the family ward and YSA ward you are over?  Do you attend both wards on Sundays?

There are like 210 that come to the Fall Creek Ward and then about 49 that came last week to the YSA.
