Week 3Laramie

This was a longer week then normal since Elder Patterson had zone conference on Tuesday and so pday was moved to Thursday.

Merry Early Christmas,

This week has gone by quickly but been very long.

December 13, 2017: We did a lot of street contacting which was
alright. We also did quite a bit of tracting as that is what my
companions wanted to do. We had a good lesson on Jesus Christ with a
recent convert which was also very good.
Spiritual: Doing things you don’t want to can bring blessings

December 14, 2017: We had district meeting and did some weekly
planning and had a few short lessons which were good.
Spiritual: Everyone can use the gospel

December 15, 2017: We did more weekly planning which was alright. We
also had a fair amount of lessons with returning less actives which
were good.
Spiritual: Planning is important

December 16, 2017: We finished weekly planning and had a meeting with
the ward mission which was good. In the evening we went to a baptism
of a member who wanted Elder J to give a talk which was good and
spiritual.
Spiritual: Baptisms are always awesome

December 17, 2017: We had church which was really good. They had a
combined YSA ward of all 3 wards due to the Holidays and that was
good. Then in the evening we had a lesson with a recent convert which
was really good.
Spiritual: The Sabbath is a delight

December 18, 2017: We had a few lessons with less actives and
investigators which were all good.
Spiritual: Help those who are lost to return to the fold

December 19, 2017: We had Zone Conference which was based on faith to
find those ready to receive the gospel and that was really good. Then
I drove back to Laramie with Elder Mc and that was really good
to be able to talk with him for a while.
Spiritual: Faith is crucial to all parts of life

December 20, 2017: We were on Exchanges, I was with Elder Band
Elder B and we did like 4 hours of tracting to limited success but
it was good. In the evening we had a lesson with a recent convert and
talked about Family History Work which was good.
Spiritual: Change is good

December 21, 2017: We had P day and we did not do too much but I
suppose that is alright.
Spiritual: R&R is needed from time to time



God be with you until we meet again,
Elder Joshua Patterson
