Had an average Pday, our appointment with Jenny Monday night fell through. We brought Brother Ollero to that lesson and since it didnt go through he took us out to eat at Wendy's which was pretty sweet!
Tuesday we had District meeting and then I went on exchanges to Iron Mountain with Elder Miservy. Iron Mountain is so pretty, it reminds me of Baraboo. We met this really cool guy who was really interested in Iron Mountain named Ralph. We taught him the Restoration and set up a time for the Elders to come back and teach more. We also tracted into this less active lady that needs a lot of service done. We were able to talk to her, help her out a little bit and set up a time the elders could come back, mow the lawn and have a lesson with her and her non member son. We also had a really good lesson with this lady named Wanda. Brother Lewis came with us and he shared an experience about him fasting for 6 days.. (I didn't even know that was possible) finally after 6 days he received his answer and was able to eat again, being happy with the answer he received.. crazyy
Wednesday, still in Iron Mountain, we helped out at the St Vincent De Paul Thrift store in the morning and then knocked some doors before we had to exchange back. Once i got back to Escanaba with Elder Hill we had a lesson with Shannon. Brother Berry came and we taught the Restoration. It was a really really good lesson.. Shannon really wants to come closer to Christ, we were able to set a baptismal date with her for the 10th of December. After that lesson we saw Joseph and Jill. Joseph had some errands to run so we weren't able to stay for long but Jill is still reading the Book of Mormon everyday and she's all the way in 2nd Nephi already! She's just eating it up! We left her with a Families and Temples Pamphlet that we will go over with them this Wednesday.
Thursday was weekly planning! We had a lesson with Sherry that Brother DePaul came to, we had planned to teach her the Law of Chastity but interruptions made it so we had to cut the lesson short again.. so we just ended up sharing an uplifting scripture. We finished off the night having dinner at the Cunninghams. They're awesome.
Friday we tracted and visited people most of the day. Our follow up lesson with Shannon fell through and then we had dinner at the Berrys home.
Saturday we had correlation in the morning. Brother Ollero took us out to Hardees for lunch and then we did some service for the Gould family. We helped them move furniture around and we were able to use our truck and help haul some furniture. After that we carved pumpkins at Sister Bizeau's house, then had dinner at a Branch Pot Luck/Game night. There were some less actives there that we were able to talk with and set up appointments with. It was a great day!
Sunday was the Primary program in church. That's always fun.. After that we went to go visit a referral that Brother Cunningham gave us. We went with Brother and Sister Cunningham to go see John. We talked with John for a while, he's a lonely older man that has had a really hard life. We shared the Restoration with him and talked about Restored Authority and Priesthood. We offered him a blessing to help with some trials and struggles he's been going through recently. It was a neat experience. The Gentz appointment fell through again since Sophie is sick.. We finished off the night seeing Josh again with Sister Wilber.
Great things are still happening in Escanaba!
Hope you all have a great week!
Elder Stevens.
