Welp, This week we were supposed to see Elder L Tom Perry on Saturday.. but he got re assigned so that wasn't able to happen. There were two members from the 70 there though.. but it was too bad we weren't able to see Elder Perry.
It was cool getting to see all the missionaries in the whole mission. Even though I don't know barely anyone there it was still a cool experience. I was also hoping, that because of the get together, they wmayd give information about getting ipads.. but nope.. Oh well. We will get them sometime I guess.
We have exchanges every week it seems like. This week I exchanged with our Zone Leader and I stayed in Sun Prairie again.
Shortly after exchanging companions we went to visit one of our potential investigators, I didn't know what room number the guy lived in, so we went to call Elder Santos to ask him which room number it was, and Elder Clement (the zone leader) pulled out the phone, to Call Elder Santos.. Elder Clements face got all red, and was like, UHH OHHHH. (He forgot to give his companion, the phone before we exchanged, so he had both phones) This was hilarious. There was no way we could contact the other Missionaries to ask them the question, or to see when and where we could re exchange. He knew that they had an appointment with one of their investigators at 4 at a McDonalds in Madison. Soo we quickly drove down to Madison, while driving, our car beeped saying we were out of gas.. Having no time, we ignored the empty gas beep and continued to the McDonalds hoping to catch the other missionaries.
Long story short, The investigator canceled, we went to the wrong McDonalds, almost ran out of gas and Elder Clement almost had a heart attack. After waiting for 10 minutes at the wrong McDonalds, we decided to drive to the other McDonalds where we barely caught the other missionaries before they drove off. and we luckily didn't run out of gas. Fun Times.
It was a good, solid week. Nothing out of the ordinary except for the Mission Conference (With the two members of the 70) and the wild goose chase to return the phone!
It's the end of my first transfer! I'm still with Elder Santos. For these upcoming six weeks, we have two very solid investigators that have a really good chance of getting baptized! So we'll see!
Love you all!
Elder Stevens
