Hey everybody!! Hows it going? My week went really well. It actually warmed up too...it got up to 60 degrees on wednesday. It was amazing!!!
Right now we are in Windsor, NY at Elder and Sister Baughmans house and we are hanging out with the Susquehanna Elders and we are going to go bowling hopefully. I don't have too much time today..we will be able to go to the library tomorrow to email more.
The highlight of our week was wednesday, we walked around Montrose and street contacted in the morning and we were able to contact 15 people!! Which is alot for Montrose in the winter. We contacted a family named Birchards and I talked to the mom and she said we could talk to them and she gathered her kids around and we talked to her about the restoration and stuff...and then she told us we could come back the next day. So we did and taught them the full first lesson and we were able to set them with a baptismal date of march 28. We spent all day saturday trying to get them a ride to church and then we finally did at 8:30 saturday night and I called Christina and she said they already made plans cuz we didn't call them in time. It was a learning experience for me and we will definelty find them a ride earlier in the week.
We have been tracting alot in the country at night and it's so amazing!!! There are so many stars and its soooo cool!!
Know that all is well up here and that I'm working hard!!
Love
