Hey everyone, this isn't going to be a long weekly. It was a pretty uneventful day for the most part, but there were still good times to be had!
Here's a VERY quick run through of the week:
Monday we had district activities which is always a blast. Other than that, we just messed around and had a good ole time.
Tuesday we started off the day with a fire drill in our apartment, so yeah, fun times. Other than that we just taught some lessons and called it good.
Wednesday we had District Council, outside, which went really good. Afterwards I went on a training visit with Elder Allen and we had a pretty good time. We stopped by a couple referrals to no avail and I planked on 2 more Cleveland signs. If you aren't aware, there are 6 Cleveland Script signs. My goal is to plank on all of them. I am at 4. Wish me luck on the other 2.
Thursday was a pretty slow going day up until the end. We had a lesson with a lady that Elder Parker met yesterday and we put her on date for baptism! She is so ready for the gospel, she was asking all the right questions and the only downside is that she isn't YSA because she has a daughter. It's fine though, it was still amazing teaching her!
Friday was just another day in the life of a missionary. We had weekly planning and had a lot of lessons cancel. It's fine though, that's just life.
Saturday I went on another training visit with one of the new Cleveland 3rd Elders whose name is Elder Findling. He is a complete stud! We had a really good day together and a couple amazing lessons. One will be mentioned in the miracle of the week section.
Sunday was another average day in the life of a missionary. I did make a leather cover for my Triple Combination so it was pretty awesome!
Miracle of the week:
So on that training visit we met a lady that had signed up to learn more about the bible and we went over and taught her about the Old and New Testament. She didn't know too much but we read through Matthew 6 and she was just absorbing everything like a sponge! She told us how she just wants to grow closer to Christ and that she is excited to study the scriptures to grow closer. We then told her about the Book of Mormon and she couldn't wipe the smile off of her face. She was so excited to learn about our church and the Book of Mormon. She told us that she knew there was a reason she reached out to us. It was just such an amazing lesson to be a part of.
Funny moment of the week:
A hobo asked us for money one day and we noticed that he had a pamphlet about the Restoration in his hands. Apparently another missionary gave it to him when he asked for money. Ahh, the joy of missionary work!
Love,
Elder Bohn
