We had a ton of return appointment from all the tracting that we did the previous weeks, and it was all on bike. We biked over 100 miles this week and i am really feeling it. So we had a bunch of good follow up lessons and some no shows which gets pretty frustrating. I mean if you set up an appointment you should be there or just say you don't want to set up an appointment. But the rest of our lessons were solid. We set 2 baptism dates and should have another 2 this coming week. It is really exciting to see hard work and obedience bring blessings. This truly is the Lords work and i am so glad to be a part of it. We visited with a few less active families and it was cool to see them want to come back to church. One of them, the Chasengnous took us out to a really nice (and expensive) Korean place, Sobahn. It was really good. Elder King wasn't a huge fan. He is kinda wimpy with new foods haha. What was really cool though was that the Chasengnous decided that they wanted to set a goal to go to the temple. It is always super exciting to see people have a desire to come unto Christ.
We also ended up doing a bunch of service this week. We helped a member with nonmember relatives move stuff into a storage unit. We ended up scoring a king sized bed out of it. Now we just need one more so I can have a bigger bed too.
We had a Mission Christmas conference yesterday. It was a ton of fun and really uplifting. The instructions by President and Sister Loveland were really good. We played some games and got to hang out with a ton of missionaries. Then we had a cool Christmas program. There were a lot of missionaries with musical talent.
This coming week should be really good. We are doing service as a whole zone on Christmas eve and then on Christmas morning we are all going to open and exchange presents and make breakfast so I'm excited for that. It is going to be a great week to share the gospel with families in need and giving service.
Hope everyone has a great Christmas and remembers the reason for the season.
Love you all!
(PS - We can't wait to talk to our missionary tomorrow!)
