Hey Y'all,

Sorry about the lack of an email last week.  I forgot about it until they kicked me off so I am making sure to get on and send this one today.  So this week was pretty good.  Tuesday we were able to teach almost all day so that was wonderful.  We set a BCD with an investigator, Mamie.  Super great spiritual lesson with her at the church about the Plan of Salvation.  Wednesday was another day full of teaching and another super spiritual Plan of Salvation lesson.  We taught from 2 Nephi 2 about the Fall of Adam and Eve and how it was necessary and Miss Hill told us that she knew that that was true but could never find where it said that in the Bible.  So we were able to help her realize the importance of the Book of Mormon.  Wonderful!

Thursday we helped a member work on his house.  Super great member and he really needed it so we had no problem spending a good amount of time over there.  Fridaywe did a lot of finding and weekly planning.  Saturday we were on the bikes a lot more and able to go see several people and get a lot of work done.

Sunday was a wonderful day.  Went to church and then came home for some work and went out to see all of our plans fall through so we were going to local members in the area that we hadn't really met and had two really great spiritual experiences with them.  One is a less active member who hasn't been to church in years but was more than happy to welcome us in and right before we were about to leave she opened up to us about everything for 40 minutes.  So grateful that we were able to stay a few minutes more than we thought and have that experience with her.  Ended the night with transfer calls......(drum roll please).........I will be staying in Pensacola and will be training a new missionary!  I am going to be a father!  I am interested to see how that is going to work out hahaha but it will be a great experience.  Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  I will end with a line from President Smith that hit me hard these past couple of weeks:

No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.
