Hello everybody! How was your valentines week? Mine was pretty good, Knocking on Valentines night was awkward, but it was funny :) So this week was pretty slow knocking wise... but we did have a few teaching opportunities. We got to teach a silly person who claimed to be an Atheist of some sort. He allowed us to come back and teach him the next day. He politely listened to us for about 20 min. We read the 1st vision out of Joseph Smith History. He was asking good questions and everything until the end. Right when we read the last word, he said "thanks for coming" and kicked us off his porch. Haha it was strange... we decided that he probably felt the spirit and it freaked him out. He was a cool guy though.
Then we had a nice long conversation with an anti -Mormon guy. It turned out to be an entertaining testimony builder :) Haha Elder Tanner and I enjoyed it.
On Wednesday we had a sweet Zone Conference! I got to see Elder Johnson and some other missionaries I haven't seen for a little while. We were trained on talking to everyone and using scriptures when we teach. It was sweet. Zone Conferences are the best.
On Thursday we talked to a crazy old guy who collects license plates. He gave us some Texas plates for free :) what a nice guy.
Friday was the best day though, we talked to a member who owns a feed store. We asked her if there was any service we could do out there, and talk to her employees while doing it. We got to scrape up and shovel piles and piles of rotten sour feed that fell from the old silos. Haha it was great, we got all muddy and dirty. Good times. My shoes still stink, I was warned they probably will always stink until the end of forever. We’ll see.
I'm really liking this area, The members are pretty cool. The town is full of non-interested old people, but there's got to be a few out there that are ready! Thanks for all the sweet packages I got this week =D Today were planning on going to a cool place called Enchanted Rock to go hiking, it should be fun :) Talk to you all next week.
