| Elder Leavitt & Elder Hammond |
Hey everyone. It's been an amazing week, and life is getting better here
with my new comp, Elder Leavitt. He is from Logan Utah. He's been out 18 months,
and we've gotten to know each other pretty well from other areas. He's way fun,
and I'm glad president sent him here because he is the elder that is needed
here to bring this area back again on its feet. Anyway, here is our week.
Monday
We emailed and shopped in the morning. Then we went to Five Guys for lunch. After, we went back into Everson and saw some people for the day. They moved our P-day to Wednesday for the fourth, so we had to work for the rest of Monday. So, Elder Haseldon and I went and did work. We also helped the Hillmans put together a swing chair they just bought. After, we had dinner, and then Elder Haseldon packed his stuff.
Tuesday
We left for transfers at 9 in the morning. Once there, I got Elder Leavitt, and we made it back in time to shop for food before our lesson with the Gardners. We taught Lindsey about the plan of salvation.
Wednesday
We went on the gold mine hike again for the 4th. We went in the morning and got a little farther to one of the entrances of the mine, but it was too small to go through, so we just took pics. We had a blast, and we're going again today, maybe to get to the other entrances. One of the people hiking the trail said that we missed the turn for the entrances, so we are going over today, maybe, to back track and go the right way this time. The way it was taking us was to a lake, but we know the way to them now. After our adventure, we then went to a BBQ at a member’s home in Laurels area. After we spent the rest of our time at the mall. That night we got our hammocks out and watched the fireworks our neighbors were shooting off.
Thursday
We went to the food bank in the morning. A few hours after that, I had to go to the library and start doing My Plan. My Plan is the exit program for missionaries going home. It involves goal setting and making plans for my future. After starting the six-week course, we then went and did some work. Later that night we had dinner with the Hillmans, gave a blessing to Sister Muller, and had my first Facebook lesson with the Gardners. We read the Book of Mormon with them, to help them understand it more.
Friday
We had district meeting. Elder Winget talked about light and how it plays an effect in our missionary work (patterns of light videos, etc). Later that day, we had weekly planning. We did some work and had dinner with the Barrons.
Saturday
We went and saw tons of people Saturday, but not a whole lot happened. We did, however, give a blessing to someone and picked up some potential former investigators to start going by and maybe teach.
Sunday
Everyone got to know Elder Leavitt really well at church. We had Alyvia at church, but that was it. After we did our studies, we had dinner with the St. Roses and Schindlers. After that, we had a lesson on revelations with the Murgels and Alyvia.
Well, that's it for this week. Hope you are all doing well. Until next week… I'll see you soon.
