Monday
was great. We had our zone p-day at a park that is only 10 miles from
where we live. In this mission 10 miles is far. We played rugby
the whole time and needless to say my team won. It was only two hand
touch but if you weren't watching where you were going or who was around
you, you may bump into someone hard. :) I made bread for the first
time. It is amazing!!
Tuesday
was okay. We had a lesson with an investigator who doesn't seem to
understand that we are agreeing on most of what he is saying. But, maybe
one day he will.
Wednesday
was slow as molasses...every door we knocked on didn't open. It was sort
of a frustrating day. My biggest thing is if you don't want us to stop
by just let us know. Don't hide and hope we go away, tell us you're not
interested.
Thursday
picked up. We had a great district meeting. And on top of that it was
Elder Castillo's Birthday. Although after lunch it slowed a bit, all
was well in the end...we had a great dinner and went to our Book of
Mormon Basics class.
Friday
was great. More service and more service. I am really excited though
for it. I never really realized how much I loved being outside, getting
my hands dirty until I have the opportunity to serve others.
Saturday
went by in a flash. We asked our ward mission leader if he needed help
so we pretty much helped him weed his garden the whole day getting it
ready to actually plant real plants. There was a dying rose bush that
had roots so deep we ended up just cutting it as low as possible and
re-burying it. I almost hate rose bushes as much as bamboo.
Sunday
was a nice day of rest. We had a great fast and testimony meeting where
there was very little time spent in silence. We also were asked to help
teach the 13-14 year old class about the Resurrection. It went a little
sideways but we ended up having a really good conversation out of it.
We visited a family that is going to help us establish contact with a
potential investigator SO THAT IS AWESOME! We then had a great dinner
and I won again at DARTS. Yes, real blowguns and darts. I am going to
buy some when I get home.
Sorry it is short. I forgot my
last planner and had to try and remember what we did last week. But,
these are the most important things we had happen. There are blessings if
we just look for them.
Love,
Elder McCallson
AWE YEAH! It is the best bread ever! I made it, I should know.
