Hey everyone! Wowzers this was a fun, crazy week for me. We have been super busy trying to meet people and get things rolling. We've been doing a lot of finding because a lot of the people that the elders were teaching are not too interested. So yeah, we're grinding!
Here is a quick run through of the week:
Monday we just did our normal stuff so it was hype. We also went to IKEA and Top Golf so it was lit.
Tuesday we met with some Buddhist lady we're teaching named Gloria. She kept asking questions like "why does God let us suffer if he loves us?" etc. The member we brought with us popped off so it was hype. After that we went finding a.k.a knocking doors for a couple hours before having a couple more lessons.
Wednesday we had district council in the morning which was hype. After that we had a couple people blow us off and cancel so we showed them and knocked some doors. That went decently alright, but no one was too interested. At the end of the night we had an awesome lesson with a lady named Sylvia and taught about the plan of salvation. Hopefully we can get her to progress.
Thursday we had a morning sync up with our bishop and he gave us a layout of the land. He gave us some peeps to reach out to so we can stay busy. Middle of the day we did, you guessed it, more knocking! No one liked us still so it was a bummer, but its all good. We had a bomb lesson with the Birch family. The husband is an area 70 so that's hype. Kind of intimidating but whatever.
Friday was a slower day. It consisted of planning, studying, and more planning. We had a super awesome lesson that I can explain more in the miracle of the week.
Saturday we did some epic service for a member's neighbor who is purging their home and renovating it. We tore up the yard and helped clean up the attic so it was hype. After that we had a bunch of random lessons and yes, more door knocking. We actually had a couple really awesome people we talked to so it was hype.
Sunday was our first Sunday in the ward so it was good getting to meet everyone. Our Bishop loves us and is giving us mad shout outs. We had a bunch of lessons cancel on us so it was time to do more knocking!
Miracle of the week:
We had a lesson with a lady named Terri and her daughter Annabelle so it was lit. They were happy to have us over and she ended up opening up about some struggles she's having and we were able to really connect and give some good advice. We set up another time to come by so it was lit.
Funny moment of the week:
We had a 10 minute long prayer from some African people who love Jesus one day. It was awesome because they just kept shouting amen the whole time and we were there for a fat minute. Only on the mission.
Love,
Elder Bohn
