Monday- Our computers were down at the church so we had to go to do it at the Library. We did shopping, got somethings done around the apartment, and then went to the SAB. It's just the Stake Assembly Building where a lot of the missionaries meet. We played this fun soccer game, but a different type and it is just fun getting to see all of them. Came home and at dinner at home. Then headed to the Curridens for FHE. We did like 15 min of tracting before and met this super nice lady named Carrie. She works for the News station so was busy but said she would love to have us over again. She was very welcoming and we are excited about her.
Tuesday- Met with a less-active and we actually got something out of him so we know where to head with him. Met with some Investigators (I), Paul and Melissa who are soo awesome. We always just discuss what he is reading in the B of M and his questions. He asks questions I don't even think of so it gets me thinking. Met with FRAN who had a surprise for us.. SHE got work off and is coming to church! YAY. Dinner at the Andersons who are one of my favorites. They are awesome and soo fun. 4 crazy little boys. Met with an (I) Javier and the lesson went great. We taught the Restoration and he seemed very interested and was very in tune with the spirit.
Wednesday- Met with Kathy and Kiel some (I) and the lesson was great. We shared a Mormon Message and they loved it. They are waiting for her husband to come home to see if he is interested in the church and if not they basically said they still would! The house the husband has been working on sold so he should be coming home soon! Had lunch at Rockys ( a yummy fried chicken place) with Frank. He is sooo nice and always takes us out to eat. Had a lesson with him and he is just great. Met with Jeff and taught the Law of Chastity.. My first time teaching it and it was a little rough but it is okay hah. Lesson with Mary Ellen (I) and it was the Restoration. She asked lots of questions which is good.
Thursday- Weekly planning and then were supposedly having lunch with a less active and Sister Hobson, a member. Well apparently lunch wasn't part of it so we just had a lesson with a less active. She is a very unique personality haha. Met with Lori a less active and the lesson was on Joseph Smith. It was great! Met with Lisa and Leah and they are moving.. Lisa is an (I) so we may have to switch her over to someone else.. All the same though where ever they go ha. Annarummas, the family we have been teaching, DROPPED us out of the blue. We are still seeing what happened there because they are so great and don't know what happened. Had a Relief Society Christmas party and it was soo fun. FRAN came to that and just loved it. We had dinner, 2 short talks, a cute song, and then everyone brought cookies and at the end you went and grabbed 12 cookies and put it on the plate. the plate had a cute poem on it saying "Bake it forward." really cute idea. It was so fun. Went to meet some potentials from a Refferal and they were great! Cute young couple and he LOVES Glen Beck so he heard about the B of M. It was an awesome lesson and they were so nice.
Friday- District meeting is always fun. It was on tracting and how to talk with people, because I get awkward lots of times haha. Still working on that. Anyway lots of our appt. cancelled but we were able to tract and find some people. Met with Jeff and it was a very spiritual lesson and a lot of progress was made.
Saturday- Met with JACKSON. a media refferal, so it comes up on our phone. He is a 20 year old guy and goes to college during the week and comes home on the weekends. It was the coolest lesson I have had on my mission so far. He is so nice and wants to find the truth so bad. He has already talked to missionaries online and wanted a B of M. We taught the restoration and he said he already believes Joseph Smith was a prophet. Can you say GOLDEN investigator. Anyways the spirit was soo strong and was just such a cool experience. He already accepted a baptismal date! Anyway he was the highlight of the day.. We did some tracting and walked up to these 2 guys and say were missionaries for the Church of... He was like no way I am too! I am looking for 2 more wives. I was like you have got to be kidding me in my head ha. Anyway they were pretty rude/just trying to be funny. Anyway no luck there. Another lady we went to knock on and she yells through her house "No trespassing." So we start walking away and she turns her car alarm on! GEEZ people. So that was great haha. We meet with Jeff again and it was a great lesson. He is progressing very well and has a baptismal date too. Met with one of my favorites, Lori :) She is a Recent Convert and is a crack up. She is the first lesson I had on my mission so I think she will always be a favorite.
Sunday- Church was good, Jeff, Fran, Kathy and Kiel, and Kathy's HUSBAND Dan came!!! So exciting. So it was great seeing all of them. Found out our Relief Society president has been moved to a different ward :( Rain hard all day. Met with a Recent Convert and had dinner at a members. Went to bed right when I got home because I did NOT feel good.
It was a super good week and we have some exciting people to teach. Thanks for all the letters, support, emails, and prayers! It means a lot. I love you all and hope you have a great THANKSGIVING.
Love,
Sister Farmer
