Snow, Rain, and Heat

Utah might be even more bipolar than Florida. This week basically had all the seasons! Snowed super hard, rained super hard, and was super hot a couple of days. Needless to say, I'm excited for it to be spring, and stay spring. Not a super eventful week, actually quite the contrary. This week sucked! We have a very large teaching pool, but no one is keeping commitments, and the week just kept dragging on. They all express interest in learning about the church, and being baptized, but won't commit. It's super sad, especially when we do everything we can for them. 

This week involved a lot of finding, mostly tracting. Didn't really find any solid new leads this week either. It's super discouraging, but we are trying to keep our heads up. We had a few lessons with Debra, but she is not willing to set a date for her baptism yet. Still fears that her parents, and her son, will disown her. Although, she does know it's true and received her own testimony of the book of Mormon. We will keep working with her, and will keep you all posted. 

Elijah and Romona accept us coming over, and commit to accepting a ride to church, but then we set up a ride to go over there, and they're not there. It's super sad, so we may need to just stop teaching them. 

We met this guy named Tristan, who's had a lot of deaths in his family, and a friend group that accepted us to come back, so we will see where that goes! 

Zone conference was this week, and it was really good. For some reason, we gave a 45 minute training on following up after lessons, and keeping daily contact with investigators. Not sure why, but it went well! 

Oh, I almost forgot! My Greenie (missionary I trained), Elder Link, who went home, came back to visit! I got to go to dinner with him, and his family, and it was awesome! That's really all I got this week. Sorry for the crappy update! Love you all!
