Seizing New Teaching Opportunities

January 18, 2016

Greetings from the Freeman household (MLK Jr day so we have no open libraries)

Week in review:
Tuesday: Nothing much a lot of people fell through and then ended the night meeting with Mark (LA) and his brother Dana (NM). Dana is really beginning to open up to us so hopefully he will start investigating here soon.

Wednesday:  More appointments falling through but this time while we are taking a youth, Jacob Price, out with us but we make it work out.  Then see Sister Lee who loves us and feeds us a lot of really good food so she brightened up our day.

​Thursday:  ​We went out with Brother Forster and had even more things fall through so he took us to lunch at this super sick diner place.  Good food and signs everywhere with jokes on them.  Then spent the afternoon planning and coordinating our efforts with the ward.

Friday: We saw a referral, Donna.  She is the sweetest lady.  She has a learning disability but really wants to grow closer to God and help her children be better. So awesome!  So we set a BCD with her for the 27th of February!  Exciting!  Then we met up with the missionaries from the Fox Run ward and they gave us a bunch of new investigators and less active's from the ward split.  Now our teaching pool has doubled and we are having a hard time finding time to do just about anything else.  Which I am alright with.;)

Saturday:  Met a new less active who is great.  He works at Papa John's and is gonna hook us up!  Then spent most of the day planning for the new people we are meeting.  Ended the night by meeting with Cynthia and Howard.  Watched the Prophet of the Restoration and Cynthia was mad after it.  Super upset about how Mormons were treated and are treated.  She is going to make a good one ;)

Sunday was bitter sweet.  Mark came to church and we had a broadcast from Salt Lake for our meetings.  Super cool.  Very spiritual.  Then we had a linger longer to meet new ward members.  Well Mark has epilepsy and had a seizure during the linger longer.  Everyone was freaking out except the four or so of us who knew the situation.  So while three of them handled the situation I ate my cinnamon roll and tried to explain to everyone I could what was happening.  I feel super bad for him and hopefully this doesn't keep him from coming to church more.

​So yeah that was a lot of typing and I don't want to type more so have a great week yall!  ​
