Transfer 9 Week 3


So this week went by crazy fast. We started off the week by going to a museum in the Dells for P-day. When we got out of the museum, to our surprise it had started snowing and there was already almost an inch and a half on the ground. When leaving the Dells to head back to Baraboo we decided to stop at a gas station to pick up a drink for the ride home. As we were checking out, some guy came up to us asking if we could  help push his car into the gas station as he had just ran out of gas just outside the lot. Although VERY slippery we were able to push his car to the gas pump and he was able to fill up. We were able to help him and then talk with him for a little while and gave him a card.


Most of this week our messages have been towards this Mormon message called I'll go where you want me to go. Its about providing service when opportunities arise. I like this quote that goes something like: Always preach the gospel and sometimes use words. We were able to share this experience how God placed this opportunity in front of us and we were able to serve and bless this guys life along with our message this week.


Because of the Snowfall, lots of Tuesday was spent shoveling various peoples driveways and what not. Wednesday and Thursday was spent in Mt. Horeb as I was on exchanges with Elder Anderson. We had a lot of fun and was able to talk to a lot of really nice people. 


The Richland Center Elders had a baptism this past Saturday, that since they don't have a baptismal font in their building they had to come and use our buildings font. We were able to set up the room and fill up the font for them as they had to drive an hour to get there. It was a great service.


Mike and Cindy (the 2 that came to the open house) Came to church yesterday. They stayed the full 3 hours and seemed to Really enjoy it. We will be able to meet with them soon. I have high hopes for them. 


Last night the bishopric held a youth fireside that we were invited to attend. The fireside was about Decisions that you make in life and how they affect your life. It was really great to sit in and discuss with them all about our different decisions and why you should choose the right. 

 

Anyways, it was a pretty good week.  Hope you all have a good one!

 

Elder Stevens.
