Parker - 20 November

Hey Everybody!

So this week was interesting 

We had a fairly fun district activity on Monday. We made tacos in the chapel and watched a church movie named Charly. Wasn´t bad. 

Then, Tuesday, we rehearsed for the zone choir, which was a surprise that the stake president sprung on us last minute. We sung in the stake conference, Come All Ye Faithful, and Silent Night. The only problem is that I´m actually just tone deaf. Then we had a quick district meeting, and yeah, came back to work. 

The next day, we had a Tormenta Blanca in the sister´s area. It went fairly well, we were able to help them out in finding new people to teach. 

Thursday, we did weekly planning in the morning, and it was really good, it was totally focused on the investigators we have and it really gave us hope that we could help someone get to baptism. 

Friday, in the morning we had interviews with the president, and in the afternoon, another Tormenta Blanca in the elder´s area. It didn´t go too great because it wasn´t properly coordinated, and it was further complicated by the fact that the sisters lost their phone. But everything turned out ok. We were able to get the district all encouraged.

And yeah, Saturday we were able to visit some investigators and we were able to take an investigator to stake conference and another one goes there all on their own. The choir was....as expected. But it all went well. After the conference, a family made us a barbecue, it was REALLY good. 

And yeah, today, we´re just kinda chillin. 

But yeah, so, lately around here, we´ve been seeing some of the Lord´s promises being fulfilled. According to Doctrine and Covenants 84:85, this past week, we´ve received food, money, and even clothes from members. My comp foolishly didn´t bring any winter clothes, or even any rain clothes cuz he thought he´d be going into summer, Thing is that it rains a LOT in this mission. So while we were at lunch, a member felt sorry for him and just gave him a jacket. It´s a cool looking jacket too. 

We´ve also been working really hard and diligently, and we´re finally seeing results. Things are picking up, we´re finding more people and things are just going better all in all. 

I love you all so much, I´m praying for you guys

Love,
Elder Blaylock
