This week was a lot of fun. Because it was the week leading up to Easter, almost all of our finding had to do with sharing the Easter video from Mormon.org. It is a wonderful video and I would encourage all of you who haven't watched it to watch it. And even though Easter is over, I would encourage you to share it with a friend. Well, now on to my week.
Tuesday - Today was alright. The Zone Leaders came over for a blitz in the morning. I was with Elder Jackson. We found three new investigators in total. Yay! Then we ate lunch. Then our appointment with terry cancelled, so we went to the chapel and did some online proselyting and Elder Radford did some theory test practice until our dinner appointment with the English-Frys. After dinner, we had an awesome lesson with Bobbie. She's great.
Wednesday - We had a bunch of appointments with our investigators, but literally all of them cancelled, so we went finding for a while. Eventually we found a lady named Teresa Donovan. She's Irish and super cool. We're seeing her tomorrow. She agreed to come to church on Sunday as well. Hopefully she'll come. Then we went to the chapel to message some of our friends on Facebook. Then we went to our dinner appointment with the Powells. They're a pretty cool family. I jumped on their trampoline for a while. It was super fun. Then we shared a message about sharing the restored gospel. They agreed to look for missionary opportunities. Then we went back to the flat for call ins.
Thursday - Today we did our weekly planning. That took a long time. Then we stopped by the place that Teresa told us she lived at and found out that she was a gypsy, because the lady living there was a former investigator who knows her. She said that we shouldn't get mixed up with her. Oh well. Then we ate a late lunch and went to chapel to do some online proselyting. Then we stopped by a media referral. She's super good. Her name is Pamela. If it wasn't for the fact that she works on Sundays, she could be baptized this transfer, but she works on Sundays. Sad. After our lesson with her, we went to Morrisons to get some donuts. Before we got donuts, we strategically placed some Easter pass along cards throughout the store. Then we went home and had dinner.
Friday - Well, we had to go to Zone conference today. It was loooooooooooooong. It was alright though. Nothing too special. Lots of trainings and speeches. After zone conference we went to a dinner appointment with the bishop and his family. They made an entire good Friday feast. I only got a picture of the starter. It was delicious. After dinner we went home and I went to bed.
Saturday - Well, today I got sick from something yesterday, so the morning and early afternoon was spent taking naps. After a few hours of that, I finally gathered up enough strength to do some work. We went and stopped by some AUFs. Only one of them was home. He was 91 years old, but he looked only 70ish. After that we went to this one AUF who wasn't home, who lives next to a bay connected to the ocean, so we went and saw it. It was beautiful. It also smelt like the ocean, which was refreshing. Then we went to our ward mission Leader's home and ate some KFC. It was nice. Then we practiced a song that we're singing for stake conference, then we went home and went to bed.
Sunday - Today was Easter, so we had church. It was really good. The members brought two nonmembers along. They're new investigators. There was a good turnout. Then after church we had lunch with the Goughs. They made a roast dinner. It was nice. Elder Radford's dad sent a present for him to the Goughs. He sent him a pocket watch. It's pretty sick. Then we saw the Pews. They're doing well. Then we went to the chapel so Elder Radford could do some theory test practice for his driving theory test on Wednesday. Hopefully he will pass.
Well, that's my week! I love you all!
Love,
Elder Warburton
P.S. Happy birthday Kinsey! Also, happy late birthday Chris! Love you both! 🎉🎉🎉🎁🎈🎈🎁
