Hola!! So this week was soooooo good! The HBG is so fun!!! I love talking to the black people and I think that I have heard every rap song ever created haha. I feel at home here so that is good!
mon-transfers-busy,busy,busy!! My new comp is Elder Wallis he is from Idaho Falls. He likes sports and music and we get along great!
tue-first day of bike riding. We rode to Sister Winters house and did service. We had some good lessons and found 2 new investigators.
wed-we had district meeting which went well!! We went downtown and talked to lots of people and had some good lessons. We found a new investigator named Gerald and he is sooo cool! He looks like Vinnie with a beard.
thur-We had such a good day! We had a decent morning of tracting and stuff. Then in the afternoon we went downtown and talked to TONS of people. We had t0ns of lessons and found 3 new investigators. I love the city and all the black people, it's so fun to talk to them and they are so much nicer than white people when you talk about religion.
Fri-It rained pretty much all day so it was hard to ride bikes. The Zone leaders drove us downtown and we had a couple of lessons with some members and found a solid new investigator named Nancy! She is really searching and wants to learn.
Sat-We had the whole day to work and had an amazing day!! Except for in the afternoon I flipped over my bike and scratched up my knee pretty good. It's all good now and it's feeling better. We went downtown for like 6 hours straight and just talked to everyone we saw and we had 8 lessons and found 3 new investigators. So it was an excellent day of teaching, probably the best one on my mission so far!!
Sun- we had Stake Conference, and it was a broadcast were Pres. Monson, Elder Perry, Elder Jensen, and Brother Beck talked to us. It was pretty good for sure! Then we rode downtown and worked for 6 hours straight again. It was a slower day, we actually knocked on doors.
We did some teaching and found one last investigator for the week named Terrance and he is super cool. He believed everything we said and wants to read the Book of Mormon.
That was our week. Our district had such a good week. Our district alone taught 60 lessons to nonmembers and found 31 new investigators.
Elder Wallis and I are basically starting over in this area cuz he only got here a week before me.
Happy mothers day to all the mothers who read this!!
Love
Elder Kyle Black
