Hey y'all!
I got my Visa! So I will hopefully be leaving at the end of this transfer--very exciting!
This week has been very interesting! We got iPad training by Elder Zwick of the Seventy. The Arkansas Little Rock mission is hopefully getting iPad's this week! I might get one, but probably not because I'm a visa waiter.
We finally found some people to teach! This past Friday we found a 18 year old that had some really good questions about where we are going. We also talked to a lady who actually went away from the church. We also got a referral which is awesome. The ward here is amazing, but we could use more referrals!
There was one member in the ward that was actually converted from going to Boy Scouts, which I have never heard of before.
This past week the other Elders had a baptism! The guy searched out the missionaries because of Thomas S. Monson. He went to a seminar and he was converted just from that, which I think is amazing. He has an amazing testimony that Thomas S. Monson is the prophet.
My goal this week is to get one investigator and teach them a lesson in their home, or at a members house. If I can get that goal, this week is all good! A mission has been a lot harder that I thought it was, maybe because I'm in a more difficult area, but it only gets better from here, haha.
Talk to you next week! (And I'll have to remember to get the address to my place!)
