Cold

Its cold today. Like in the teens and we went fishing this morning on the Arkansas River and I decided to wear shorts. So yea cold. But this week has been pretty solid. Like Church on Sunday was crazy. We had 3 investigator families at church and a ton of less actives that we had visited. Dont know if it is the work we are doing or the fact that church is now at 11 but either way its great. 
But this last week was a great one to not have the car with the snow and freezingness and all. We bumed a lot of rides from members on their Christmas break. We have been getting a ton of Media referrals which is sweet even when half of them want nothing to do with us. But we have meet a couple of pretty cool people.
We have one family that we are teaching that is from some Pacific Island. They are super cool and respectful and really want to learn about Jesus Christ. They even came to church with the Ward Mission Leader. But they speak barely any English so it is pretty rough. I hope they understand well enough. They do have a BoM in their own language (chuukese) so that is good. Maybe when I get home I will be fluent in like 6 languages.
We have also ran in to like 2 identical older black ladies that are all for the gospel and God. One was a media referral and the other lives where a member used to live so we have had some cool gospel talks with southern black people.
Then we have our one progressing investigator. She and her boyfriend (a member) have a little baby (DBLC). But they are doing well and she is excited to get baptized and they came to church. The guy is super cool and it is awesome to see him coming back to church.
Elder King is starting to make me carry more of the weight so that is kind of stressful. I hope we dont get split up this next transfer. I feel like we are jsut starting to get things going.
Hope you all have a happy new year and make some good resolutions
and actually do them :)

Love  and miss you all
