Hey again all!
So another week gone, and February is already midway through!! Unreal! Doesnt seem like it should almost be march already, its beginning to look like spring here in Nevada. Which is fantastic!! I found out I didnt really miss the rain at all out here. Perhaps I would, but not when I have to walk/bike in it. I definitely miss the green, but not what provides the green.
Anyways, this past week was pretty good, although it continues to be slow. This area is really really tough. I dont know if they realized it would be so slow when they decide to split it just before I got here. It is quite slow. This week now though is looking like its going to be picking up which is exciting. I hope everything holds, we found a lot of less actives that said we could come back and whatnot, so we got a lot of lessons scheduled this week.
As for last week, I really dont even remember what happened haha it was kind of a blur. Like I seriously would have to look in my journal or planner to remember what we did. Ummm lets see.. they did decide to (on Saturday) move 2 of the 6 missionaries out of our place finally, but unfortunately it wasnt us. They decided to move the ones with a room and a car out instead of the ones sleeping on the floor with bikes that live 5+ miles away from there area. Though Im not complaining lol... It is nice though, now we have a room and beds, so we're happy. We are still anxiously awaiting a move out call though so we can be close to our area. It would be really nice.
So just skimmed through the planner and I couldnt find anything interesting to note that happened, so I guess it was just a really normal week. Nothing big or different happened so it was kinda just "meh." Things are tough though in this area, we're really struggling to find some new people to teach and baptize. The investigators we do have are continuing to not progress which stinks, so we may be dropping some of them soon and just trying to recycle the teaching pool and focus more on just finding new people. We've tried a couple things hoping they would work but still nothin.
P-day was way fun yesterday, we got together with the zone and played tackle football and kickball. It was really fun, and luckily no one got hurt haha. My comp and I, Andersen and Jensen (our previous roomates that just moved out) arrived first to the park and some guys that just happened to be at the park already asked us if we wanted to play. So we started off just playing with them then when the rest of the zone got there we played missionaries vs the other guys. We uhh pretty much destroyed em haha. It was pretty fun, who knows maybe some of em will start investigating cause they realize we are normal people too!!
Well hope yall have a good week this week, continuing praying for the missionary effort and for your own missionary experiences!! Im expecting my family members to be those "awesome members that actually care about missionary work and help out the missionaries" that the missionaries always talk about!! :)))
Love
