Week #92

Hi Mom!!!!!

This was kind of an interesting week. So I told you last week about all those people that we met and had appointments set up with. Well it turns out, they are all super flakey! All of them flamed us and one of them blocked our number haha! The tough life as a missionary. We have been doing so much tracting and contacting it's crazy! There will most definitely be holes in the bottoms of my shoes by the time I'm done with this area! The only struggle is turning these people into investigators now. No one can seem to keep a solid appointment! Last week we called a potential to make sure we were still good to come for our lesson which was less than 30 minutes from that time. She said it was still going to work for her. Sure enough, when we got there, she wasn't home. Such a struggle! Only if people would be strait up with us. 

We did meet this really cool guy that is willing to have us come back though. His name is Jordan and he's the only one that had a legit excuse to not being able to meet with us this week. While he was at work, he some how cut his throat open way bad but told us to come back soon. Awesome guy.

All of our investigators, besides Caroline, are really struggling right now. Robert is just having a horrible time with his Dad. His dad is in the hospital and it doesn't appear that he's going to get any better. He still wants to meet, just not right now. 

We dropped Denitra and Lauren. They kept giving us really lame excuses so we decided we need to give them a break. I think they'll be prepared down the road though. 

Another super cool thing that happened this week was with Dustin, a Less Active member of the ward. So we have been trying really hard to meet with Dustin for the past 2 months. We have finally gotten back in contact with him. We set up a family home evening lesson with them, which we had yesterday and it was AWESOME!!!!! Out of his 5 kids and his Fiance, Dustin is the only member. None of them really have a solid background with religion but they all seem to be interested in it. Dustin knows that the gospel will bless not only him but his family as well. He's so awesome! They're a great family! Slightly crazy, but who isn't haha! 

We're working hard, Lots and lots of tracting! Hopefully next week I'll get to tell you about all the new investigators we got! But if not, that's okay too... I love you a bunch! 

Congrats Bennett for putting  your papers in! It feels like I did that yesterday! Love you Mom! Have a great week!

Love,

Jack
