The Lake

This was a pretty solid week. had a lot of good teaching and some crazy weather to keep us on hour toes. We had a couple of tornado warnings and a ton of rain but besides that the weather has been pretty decent.

The Evans family is doing well and we are starting their new member lessons. they really enjoy church and are just progressing so well.

We have also had a few good lessons with Jeannie. She has quit smoking and broke up with her boyfriend in jail. And she has really started to have a desire to learn more and be a better person. She really enjoys reading the Book of Mormon. Hopefully she starts making steps towards baptism.

We also started teaching a girl in a part member family. She is really excited to get baptized and is eager to learn. The only problem is that they are busy pretty much 24/7 so it is tough to make an appointment.

Jack is a super old guy that lives around the corner from us and the missionaries have been seeing for a while. He usually isn't very interested in church stuff but this week we invited him to church and he said that he would come.

We have had some good visits with the less active families and really enjoy spending time with them.

Yesterday Sister Loveland and her son Neil came to visit us. they came with us to a few appointment and brought us dinner. It was really fun to kind of show off our area and all the great things about Grove.

I always love how after a slow week of teaching the next week is awesome. I guess that is opposition in all things though. I'm still loving the mission and it feels crazy that I'm coming up on 7 months and that i get to call home next week

Love you all and wish you the best!
