Hey y'all! Welcome back to another week of a lot of fun eventful things happening that cause us the struggle bus and cause us the happy train! So.. Let's get right into it!!
Monday after P-Day we had to walk all the way down by Wal-Mart to have a lesson. But sadly it didn't go through so we had Taco Bell and met 2 pretty cool people who seemed pretty interested. Sadly couldn't get a return appointment but we got their number so that was cool. Then we walked back and saw a semi get pulled over by 2 cop cars, that was exciting. And we came home and ended the day.
Tuesday was Elder Judd's Birthday!!! We got picked up by a member and we drove up to Zone Conference. Zone Conference was pretty awesome! We learned a lot about being Bold and about Revelation and the importance of it! It was a great Conference. I am also doing parts in the Music Tributes coming up soon again so I'm excited about that! And then afterwards we were driving back with another member and we got some Wendys and then visited someone before coming back and making cake for Elder Judd's Birthday! He had a good birthday so that twas great to hear.
Wednesday Elder Judd's pedals got shipped so we were able to put his new pedals in. And we finished studies too before we left. We had a pretty great lesson with the Youngs, talked about Eternal Marriage. Afterwards we were going around making contacts and then we found a person through that so that was cool. Then we had a pretty cool lesson with Miesha as well about the scriptures and praying! So we're making great progress and we're excited with that. Then we came back in for the night.
Thursday we did studies and afterwards we changed and went down to the Animal Shelter and helped out for a few hours which was fun. Afterwards we biked back after it stopped raining and got ready to head out. We went out and tried to contact people but it didn't work, and while we were biking, Elder Judd's bike proceeded to get a flat. So we were pretty bummed about that because we didn't have any patches. We decided to do our daily contact and in doing so we ran into someone we've been working with and chatted with him for a while which was good. Then afterwards we got a hold of one other person we were working with to take us back to our apartment to assess. And not even slime could fix the hole, so we had to walk. We had a lesson that sadly fell through so we just came back and ended the day.
Friday we did our studies and did some Weekly Planning before we got picked up to go to Okolona for some appointments. There we had most of all the stuff fall through sadly but we were able to find one person through it so we were pretty excited about that. Then afterwards the member took us to Wal-Mart and we got tubes and patches. And we came home and put the new tube in. We biked around for a little bit then we came back and finished Weekly Planning.
Saturday we did Studies and I had my ZLC Call which was pretty good. Then after we got picked up by our old Branch President and we had lunch at a Mexican place. Afterwards we had to go to Houston to visit a recent convert to check on their central unit. After we drove all the way to Aberdeen and tried to see a few members, some success some not. And we were able to find 2 people out of that also so that was pretty exciting. Then afterwards we came back home and got ready to go when to our surprise we find ANOTHER hole in Elder Judd's new tire. Turns out it got pinched and it wasn't fixable. So we put in the backup and tried visiting people and sadly they fell through so we came back home and ended the day.
Sunday we had Keondrick at Church which was awesome. And after Church we were able to teach him most of the rest of the stuff which we are excited about. Then after Church we did our studies and then we left to go visit people. We contacted a few people and had a great discussion with Betsy about prayer. Then we visited John for a little bit and talked about things going on. And then we went finding for a little and thankfully found a person at the last door which was awesome. Then we came back home and had dinner and Call Ins.
Even through the Bike problems, we saw some cool experiences and we were thankful for that. Please pray for Keondrick as he is approaching Baptism this week, it would mean a lot to me. And I also get transfer news this week! So I'm excited to see if anything changes! Y'all are in my prayers!!
May God be with you all, and know that I am here. I love you all!
Elder Braxton Hotton
