So to begin. We were a bit late
because like usual Elder Talbot predicted what would happen and nobody
listened to him so Elder Moore had 2 hours to pack and then we had to
go. But, because of a side quest that he made for himself and for a
family he was working with down in the Falls he got tazed before he left
:D The battery wasn't full so it wasn't as exciting as we thought it
would be... But, He got tazed. Which made us late so we stopped in
Steinbach and stayed the night there.
The next
morning we got into the city and had a pretty good ZTM for being told
to make one up a week before. We learned about Family Home Evening which
I had been going nuts talking about and teaching about two weeks prior
so it was a nice followup :) Something I posed to the zone that I had
already done on a small scale in our district was If we're going to be
teaching about family home evening but some of us didn't hold regular
family home evening how is that going to work? Elder Moore (the giant
one) talked to me after I said that and agreed that we should probably
teach the missionaries first before we teach our investigators and less
actives. Oh Well it'll work out I'm sure :)
Later
that day we got permission to stay for a baptism that Elder Talbot was
invited to. It was nice to attend a baptism. It's been a while :) But,
Somehow Elder Talbot had affected the girl that was being baptized so he
was one of the few other people invited to take part in the
confirmation. I'm sure he was innately excited about that :) It's fun to
see how many people Elder Talbot influenced in his areas :)
One
random thing that happened in the course of the week. Elder Talbot had
an appointment with a doctor down in I-Falls so we were down there for a
bit. While I was waiting for him there were some people I didn't expect
to see show up. It was actually a great way to pass the time. First of
all the family I was telling you about earlier that tazed Elder Moore.
They showed up and they're always fun to talk to :) The next thing I
knew the sisters from Warroad (2 hours away) showed up as well. So we
had a reunion for one of the sisters that served in I-falls and it was
just a good time. It was honestly a bit weird how we were all in the
same place at the same time. I guess that family needed it :)
So next thing on the list. Elder Talbot and I are now part of the Relief Society. So there we were on Saturday
doing our online time in the morning and the Relief society was
prepping for a party they were going to have for the District (stake)
and they told us if we wanted to come back we could have lunch. So free
lunch always sounds good even if there is a bunch of ladies from around
Ontario and Minnesota. So we get back and have lunch and on our way out
we get stopped and asked if we can nail a few logs together for a craft
they were making (pictures later) So we nail the first one and somebody
else asks us if we can do theirs. Two hours later we're cleaning up for the event. So I guess we're part of the relief society now :)
Overall
it was a good week. 5 out of 5 would do again :) For all of you who
didn't get a reply from me this week. I wish I had time but we've got to
be at Hardee's in a bit and then we're frisbee golfing with the I-falls
elders and then we're getting the oil replaced for the Equinox so I'm
out of time... I'll get back to you next week for sure. I still love
y'all. Anywho I hope y'all survive Elections this week. We had a
broadcast yesterday that reminded me of the first part of the book of
Revelation so if you know the context of that you can see my concern and
peace in that :)
I promise that the rest of the relief society made a lot cuter snowmen and not weird ones like me :)
My destroyed planner. Not sure if I told that story
Giant Walleye. I was half awake because we were coming back from the Peg and I was getting nap time
