Monday we went through the interview questions for one of our people we were supposed to baptized the 1st, but found out he needs to get First Presidency Approval, so that's sad. It's going to be pushed off till we get the ok. After that we got picked up by a member and we went to his house and went FISHING! One of the things you need to know about me, is that I love fishing... And camping... And pasta... And Doritos dynamite... And technology... A lot. If you want to make me happy, that does it pretty well hahaha. But anyways, I caught like 8 fish (we had to throw them back in, but that's ok) and it was awesome. Then after all that they dropped us off in Dyersburg and we did a few calls and ended the day.
Tuesday we had Zone Conference and that was really good. Then after we got picked up by President Stephens, our Elders Quorum President, and he took us and Dyersburg out to eat. Then he drove all of us to Dyersburg, where we loaded and started exchanges, and I was with Elder Ramage here in Humboldt. And President Stephens dropped us off at our house and we just ended the day there.
Wednesday after studies and lunch we went to the Church and President Stephens picked us up and we visited a less active member in Tresvant again. We talked with him for a while about a few things and then we left. Because of time, we just drove to Dyersburg after and ended exchanges. He took us back to the Church and we did some preparation for the Gospel Principles Class that night. Then we decided to go get Taco Bell, but then in the process we found out that Wendy's opened (super fast too, it was insane) and we went to Wendy's. Then we had our class and that was the majority of the day.
Thursday we did service for Martha again, and we did a lot of organizing. I actually get excited when I do service, it just brings me a lot of joy and happiness. It's a lot of fun for me. Afterwards we came back home, did a couple of things, and then we biked around and found a person in the process! Then we had dinner at the Fishers and ended the day there.
Friday we got picked up by Brother Powell and we helped a few members move things around from one house to another. After that we got lunch and he took us home. Then we helped someone with their break lights and such, and that was fun. Then we biked around a had a lot of contact attempts fall through. Then we came home.
Saturday we helped out the Fishers with a few things for a little while, then we came home and got ready for the day and did Weekly Planning. A lesson fell through so we went to the Church and did studies at the Church and then we had Interviews for Laurie and Sam and they passed! So they're getting baptized this Saturday so that's exciting! After interviews we drove to Dyer and had dinner at a members house. Then we drove to the Church and had a Zone Zoom call and got transfer news, and we are both staying as I said in the beginning! So that's exciting.
Sunday was Fast Sunday and we had 3 people at Church so that was cool. After Church we came home and did studies and then we drove up to Milan and we biked around. We talked to a few people and had some nice conversations with them. Then after that we had dinner in Medina and had Breakfast for Dinner. Then we had Call-Ins with the Zone Leaders and talked to a few people and ended the day.
Happy first week of Summer to all of you, and for those who graduated this year congrats as well! I hope you all are excited for what lies ahead of you! It's going to be a great experience!
May God be with you all, and know that I am here. I love you all!
