Happy Thanksgiving to you all! I can't believe that this is my third Thanksgiving on the mission. This week was a ton of fun and it went by too quick!
Here's a run through of the week:
Monday was p day so we were chilling for the day. We had a couple phone calls in the morning and then went to Easton mall with a couple elders and had a good ole time.
Tuesday we went on training visits with the Spanish 2A Elders. I was with Elder Christensen for the day and it was a hoot. We had a couple fire lessons throughout the day. One was with Gloria and it was a lot of just questions and answers. After that we met with a couple members and had some good lessons.
Wednesday we had a 4 mile run in the morning with our zone and mission President so it was pretty hype. After we survived that we had district council and it went really good. To end off the day we had a couple lessons with members and some friends we're teaching.
Thursday was the legendary turkey day! We did some flag football with the ward in the morning and got wet and muddy in the rain but that's all the fun. After that we went on splits and I went with Elder Christensen to go to Venessa's house for Thanksgiving. We had an incredible time there and shared a message with her and her family. After that we wound down for the night and called it a happy turkey day.
Friday was a very long boring day. It was back to back meetings, planning, and studies. It was a very long day. But it all came together when we decided to go biking to go and knock some doors. So we ended up biking 6 miles to go to a spot to knock some doors. Nothing too crazy happened until the end of the night. I'll mention more on it in the miracle of the week.
Saturday we went up to Newark on a training visit. I got to spend the day with my good old friend Elder Allen. So I was very ecstatic to say the least. We had a couple lessons throughout the day with some people they're teaching. We also had a really good phone call with one lady that we have been trying to meet with. We managed to set up a return appointment and we invited her to church. Overall it was just a phenomenal day, I love Elder Allen with all my heart.
Sunday was a pretty slow day for the most part. We had church in the morning and we got to teach the lesson in young women's so it was lit. After church we had a lot of planning and studies to do so that got boring. Things picked up when we just started calling through a whole bunch of random people in our area book. We were able to get like 5 return appointments and get 3 new people to teach. So yeah, you could say it was hype.
Miracle of the week:
When we went finding that Friday night we knocked for a couple hours to no avail. When we were about to head home we felt inspired to knock on one more door before turning in for the night. We knocked and shared a message and she talked about how she's been looking for a church to join since moving here. We weren't able to get her information, but we are going to stop by again to try and set something up!
Funny moment of the week:
We started off our training visit up in Newark with a legendary song. I hope you enjoy!
Love,
Elder Bohn
