Week 56: KFC Surprises




Hey everyone! And that wraps up yet another week up in the blessed land of Y-Town. We were super busy pretty much all throughout the week, so I can't complain! Happy late Thanksgiving everybody!

Here's a quick run through of the week:
Monday was another fairly average P day. We had a district activity which was fun. We played soccer, basketball, and volleyball so it was a blast.
Tuesday we went on training visits with the Elders in Warren. I was with Elder Hammond for the day so we had a party! We did service at a place that gives out free meals and that day they were literally just handing out $5 fill up boxes from KFC. More on this will be mentioned in funny moment of the week. At the end of the day we called a whole bunch of people and set up a bunch of lessons.
Wednesday we had District Council in the morning which is always a hoot. After that was over literally all of our lessons cancelled on us. After crying for a little bit we sucked it up and did some Facebook work. It actually went really good because we were able to make some awesome content for the zone page.
Thursday was a wild day for us. We didn't have anything really set up throughout the day because no one wanted to meet. We just made the most of it and sent a bunch of texts and talked to people on Facebook. At the end of the day we got together as a District and had Thanksgiving with all the missionaries. Our Bishop provided us all with food for the festivities so it was sweet! 
Friday was a jam packed day for us. We had a ton of lessons with some members and new people we're teaching. Other than that it was another day on the mission.
Saturday was sweeeeeeet! In the morning we helped rake leaves over at a member's house. After that my main man Elder Horsley came down for a training visit and we spent the day together. We had a couple lessons and walked around Youngstown hoping people would talk to us. It was good to spend some time with him and talk about the memories we had. 
Sunday was a really good day. We did training visits with the Elders in our apartment and I went with Elder Magleby. We had a hoot together running around all over the place. We had a couple lessons with people throughout the day that all went smoothly. At the end of the day we had some bomb French toast and called it a night.

Funny moment of the week:
So when they gave us those 30 boxes of KFC we decided to just drop them to random people walking and people we're teaching. It was pretty much an early Thanksgiving/Christmas and we had a blast doing it.

Miracle of the week:
Over this past week we have gotten so many incredible self referrals. They all have such a strong desire to grow closer to God and are genuinely interested in listening to our message. It's a miracle to me to have such amazing people to talk with!

Love, 
Elder Bohn
