Hey everyone! I'm doing well!! Just staying warm and still working my hardest!! This week was a bit slower than weeks past...we were only able to see one of our current investigators, between sickness and family issues. But, everything is going better for everyone now so we will be back in action with them this week.
I'll just briefly go through my week so you can get an idea of some stuff we did...
Monday- we went to State College and played some basketball!! So fun!! I was so happy to get to run for the first time since I have been here. After that Elder Saunders and I came back here on exchange...
Tuesday-we volunteered at the food bank then we went to the Allens for dinner and a lesson. After dinner I was holding their naked ferret and I scared Elder Sandberg cuz I put the ferrets nose in his ear. It was super funny
wednesday- We had district meeting and learned about Chapter 9 in Preach my gospel!! Then that night we went and visited a bunch of members with Brother Wick and Brother Morrison.
Thursday- I can't remember anything we did on except for service.
Friday-We tracted alot and we saw 2 former investigators named Mark and Jean and taught them again, so now they are investigators again!! So happy about that!!
Saturday- it snowed alllllllllllllllllllllll day!! So that meant that we had to walk everywhere!! So we just walked about 6 miles in the snow and street contacted for the most part! Good thing you sent me those snow boots mom. My legs were super sore the next day!
Sunday- We went to church and then after church we went and tracted for the rest of the day..the bad thing about that is that the Steelers were playing..so no one would talk to us. Even 2 of the members wouldn't let us in cuz the Steelers were playing! man it was frustrating!
I love you guys lots and know that I am still working hard and staying focused as I can on the Lords work! And how sweet that work is!!
Love
ELDER BLACK
