So this past week has been a week of change but also one of miracles.
December 27, 2016: Elder D and I left for Windsor at 7:30 after I had put all of Elder D stuff into the truck. Arriving in Windsor we met with the missionaries from Loveland and Greeley who had a companion change or were leaving like Elder D. A while after that the transfer Van came in with the missionaries from Longmont and so I said goodbye to Elder D and helped Elder H put his stuff into the truck before we were headed back to Fort Morgan. Arriving at our apartment Elder H decided to do a deep cleaning and reorganizing which I had tried to convince Elder D of for much of my time in the field. After he was done with that we had dinner with the M family which was alright. Then we headed to Brush and did a bit of trying of less actives there so it was a good day overall.
Spiritual: The spirit can not dwell in unclean dwellings so stay clean and you will find greater success.
December 28, 2016: We did a great deal of finding which was really different than what I am used to which is next to nothing so it was truly a learning experience for me. We had lunch with the Sr. M which was a really good conversation. We also took Toby out for a while which was also a good time.
Spiritual: Sometimes you need to try something new to find success.
December 29, 2016: We did even more finding which still to me was weird. Then we had dinner with TM and his family which was full of interesting missionary work based conversion so it was good. Then we tried a few people in Brush before we had our first lesson with this young girl named G which was really good. She is set on date to be baptized this Saturday so it is a bit of a rush but will be really good.
Spiritual: If you try to find the lord will put others in your path so you can teach them.
December 30, 2016: We had a lesson with B where he said he was seriously considering baptism and we were able to answer some of the questions he had that were keeping him from considering it's more fully. Then we had district meeting which was a solid meeting and was done surprisingly quickly but then we spent some time getting to know each other better. After that I called President to let him know about the reading assignment he had given me. After that we had dinner at a member's restaurant and then called the day because Elder H was feeling sick.
Spiritual: Your leaders can give peace to your mind if you truly seek for it.
December 31, 2016: We did Service at the Humane Society which ran an hour long so after we went and got dinner it was almost 6 so we had to return to our apartment. There we played a number of board games which I lost almost all of sadly.
Spiritual: Do not be discouraged over little things because if you do you will struggle with bigger things as well.
January 1, 2016: We had Church where B came and we met a lady who came because she was interested in learning more about the church which was really cool. After that we had lunch with the Ni which was great. Then we had a second lesson with G
where we taught lessons 2 and 3. She is still super excited at the thought of being baptized. After that lesson we gave a less active a blessing before we went and visited with the S for a short while before we went and had dinner and then we went and visited Patty for a while before we gave her a blessing.
Spiritual: If we try then the Lord will bless us for our efforts.
January 2, 2016: Today we plan to be doing more cleaning of our apartment so it should be good other than that we have a lesson with a less active family which should also be really good.(Picture credits are from Elder H's mom that she posted on facebook)
God be with you till we meet again
