Church Tour

So this last week we were able to give two of our investigators a church tour. I've never really been able to do that with investigators here before so that was a good time :) It was the first time I've opened the doors to the baptismal font and I hope I get the chance to do that again before I leave the area :) But out of all the church my favorite part was talking about the sacrament. I've gained such a testimony of the Sabbath and the sacrament this last year. It doesn't help that for a long time we had a Sabbath day portion in district meetings but, it's been good. I truly felt the sacredness of the sacrament as I was describing what it means to our investigators the other day. It was so good :) As Elder Thurston says all the time "The church is true".

Also this week we finally broke the plateau that we were on last week. It was nice to be getting lessons and new investigators again. It was actually with some of those new investigators that we did the church tour with so that was great :) 

For the out of the ordinary we went to Saskatoon this week. It was great to see Elder Lee again and it was kindof fun to see him be a Zone Lord. After ZTM we all went to Kentucky Duck and I tried their popcorn chicken poutine which was pretty unique but good :) If only they had the same gravy as KFCs down in the states it would be so much better :) But, I guess you can't have all the good things. I'm just waiting for a poutinery to be opened in Utah at this point :) 

Another fun thing that happened was I got to meet the "biggest indian" in Northern Saskatchewan. This guy was a solid 6 ft. 5 in. if not more and 300 pounds. He was a big boy. But, the fun part is he was visiting from Saskatoon and he wanted to come to church because he was just baptized in February. He wasn't able to make it but we did get to go talk to him and him and Elder Wilson caught up on things. It's fun how the Lord prepared a man who a ton of people know here in the Battlefords. His family is the largest group of Natives in the area so almost all the Natives know of the guy. It's great :) 

Welp, I honestly can't think of any other really interesting things that happened at this point. I wouldn't mind having to call the cops again or something if I knew it didn't mean something serious had happened. Oh well... It'll probably happen again since it's happened at least once each transfer I've been here ;) Don't worry everything turned out fine and I've never been harmed. 

Anywho Love youz and I hope y'all have a great week. Potatoes gonna potate
