Back To Work


So included are some pictures of the FHE activity we had, the scarf I made during the ice lock down, the ice rink that was our street, and the snowman president Greer made at zone conference. Enjoy!

This last week was a pretty good one. We got back to work which was nice. We are having plenty of lessons, with the occasional tracting. The other night we finally got the area book up to date (it hadn't been touched since before I got here) but it is now ship shape, and we are implementing it into our finding activities.

One such instance, we found an old teaching record, the last note from missionaries on it said "This lady is crazy, insane in the head! Only go over if you want a good journal entry!" So naturally she was one of the first ones we visited. She wasn't soo crazy, a little drunk perhaps, but her daughter was nuts. We could hear her in the other room giving what sounded like tech support on the phone, nothing wrong with that, but then at the end we figured out that she was talking to her computer. Odd. But we had a good lesson with her and are going to see where things go.

We got a media referral from Salt Lake, I've had nothing but bad experiences with those, but this one seems to have some potential. We haven't been able to catch him at home but have spoken with who we think is his wife, and she seems nice. Hopefully he is actually golden as the referral we got says.

On Saturday the Boardman Elders had a baptism. So we went out to show our support. it was a great service, and several people I knew from Boardman were there, so it was fun to be able to catch up with them for a while. The part that made me happiest was that, a year later, they still remembered me.

I'm blanking on note worthy news, but life here is good. The work is progressing. The Spanish group is struggling due to everyone's ability to be offended over nothing, but we will keep trying to build up the kingdom.

Much love,

Elder Richards
