4 Months!?

This week was my 4 month mark, which means I got 20 to go! I want to say it's flying by, but then again it isn't. Days feel like weeks, and weeks feel like days! This week was good, don't really remember all what happened though. This morning Elder Spencer went home, and our district is super sad about it. He served a good 25 months!

Monday, we did the regular thing, speedball, shopping, and hung out. That night we decided to knock just one last door before returning home, and we found a new investigator named Trent! We had a good chat with him and invited him to baptism. He agreed, and said he truly wants to make changes in his life and come closer to Christ.

Tuesday, the 4th of July, was great! We had a recent convert lesson with Vicki Morgan, and she brought a friend to the lesson! After the lesson, we invited her friend to be baptized, and she said she would. She lives in Layton, so we referred her to the missionaries there! That night, we had dinner at the Hardymans (dope family), and we watched them do some fireworks after dinner, since we weren't going to be able to watch them at night. We had to be in our house by 6:30 :(

Wednesday, we had our district meeting, and afterward we had interviews with our Mission President, President Jaggi. It went really well, I just love that man to death! That night, we had a lesson with Trent in the chapel, and taught him about the sacrament. The lesson went great, and he was really engaged in the lesson.

Thursday, I went on exchanges with Clinton west, the trio, so I was with Elder Spencer and Elder Beckdol, while Elder Richards stayed in Clinton North with my companion. It was pretty fun, we had a lot of lessons. At dinner, the wife of the man feeding us, had shingles and asked if we would give her a blessing so I did. After the blessing she said that her vision wasn't blurred anymore, so the priesthood is real!

Friday, was a normal day.. Did some finding and no luck.

Saturday, we taught Trent again. We also put him on date for 29th of July! He's progressing extremely well and has already gained a strong testimony. That night, we had dinner with the Mills, who are probably one of the coolest families in all of my wards, so it was great!

Sunday, Trent came to church with us! He was engaged into the talks, and said he learned a lot from them. He even went up to the speakers after the meeting and thanked them for their remarks. He's such a great guy, and I'm so grateful to be teaching him to follow Christ!

By the way, I’m getting all the letters and such, even if I don't reply! I don't have much time to write hand written letters. I love you all and hope you enjoy this week!
