This week went by pretty fast.
On Monday we had our P-Day but we were needed to help a members friend move across town. So we helped out for a couple of hours. They had a very heavy hide-a-bed couch that needed to go out of the back door. Elder Tunstall and I had to handle the couch ourselves. The door was tiny.. I'm sure we spent more time trying to get that couch out the door than we spent moving everything else.. We had to take off the door and the screen door to eventually slide it through.. Anyways, later that day we went to a member-owned adventure, I-spy type interactive place called Wizard Quest. Missionaries love going here on p-days.. Its really fun and its great because we get in free.. Hah We finished off Monday by having dinner at the Little-Soldiers home.
Tuesday was a normal proselyting day, we would of had District meeting but we didnt due to a worldwide missionary broadcast that happened on Wednesday. The broadcast was great. It was a 2 hour broadcast with many speakers and trainings from Apostles. We learned a lot of good things that we plan on implementing in our work. We finished off Wednesday by visiting a bunch of people and having dinner with the Gilletts.
Thursday we helped out Mason at his waffle shop. We've been helping him almost every week for 4 months on this shop and ive been able to see it improve and improve. The shop has really come together nicely. He plans on opening Feb 15th, so all of our hard work will hopefully pay off and we'll be able to eat some waffles! haha.
Friday we were able to go out to Lunch with Brother Ricks to a nice local shop in Baraboo. We spent the day planning and visiting/contacting people. In the evening the Funeral for Brother Boyd took place. It was a very nice service. The spirit was strong there. After the service some members took us out to eat at another local Baraboo restaurant. Which was great.
Saturday we helped Brother Gillett move one of his friends he works with into their home so that she, her mom, and her daughter could have a place to stay. (we had a hard time with the hide-a-bed couch again..) It's very nice of the Gilletts to open his home up to them. I know this lady has actually had a loat of questions and interests in our church before so now, when we have our dinners with the Gilletts, we'll be able to teach them as well. So I'm very excited about that! The lady is actually Romanian and a friend of Albertos. Pretty neat. Later that day we had a Family Home Evening with the Martinez family. We were able to teach a really good lesson. They invited us to come back next Sunday for another lesson. So that's great. That night we were tracting and we found this really nice lady who seemed pretty interested. So we were able to teach her some and so hopefully we'll be able to meet with her more and teach her more!
Yesterday, we had some really good talks and lessons at church. About Family home evening and good music. In gospel principles we talked about Exaltation which is really neat. We had lunch with the Dance family, where we did the Apostasy lesson that I talked about a couple weeks ago I think.. We also had a great dinner with the Andrews and shared a really cool video called Ill go where you want me to go.
Anyways. I think it was a pretty good week!
Hope you all have a good one. Love you all!
