June 11, 2018 A Long Week

This past week was a week full of hard work. We only had 1 lesson so we were super packed with finding. We have been trying to set a standard or carry the District in a way because there is little motivation in the district. It really helped out this week and we did a lot better in our efforts over all.

There was a few things this week I would like to tell about. First, we found a super awesome potential investigator named Anthony, Second we got to sit in a sweet Corvette, and last of all I got to fix Elder Hansen's horrible hair cut. 

 

So probably the highlight of the week was finding Anthony. We were out finding and we felt prompted to go knock on a door right across the street from where we parked. We knocked on the door and met a guy named Anthony. He was talking to us and then out of nowhere, he gets shoved out of the way and his wife is there screaming out of pure joy to see the Missionaries. She was a member who was baptized a while back and since moving to Florida she hasn't gone to church. Her records aren't moved and so we are going to help her do that and we invited her to church. After talking with her, we asked if Anthony was interested in taking the lessons again with us. He said he was and we have a return appointment for this coming Wednesday. They have a son named Jacob and they are a super elect family! What a Miracle!!!

So next, we were tracking in a different area and Elder Hansen and I both love Corvettes and Camaro so we point out every one we see. We saw a guy who had a super nice Corvette and so we decided to knock on his door and ask if we could take a picture with it. We knocked, and he answered and while closing the door and saying not interested, I asked if we could take a picture with his car. He said sure and so we started taking a few pictures. After a minute or so, he came out and asked if we wanted to get in his car so we did. It was super awesome and the guy thanked us for the work we did even though he wasn't interested. 

Last of all, Elder Hansen got a hair cut at great clips. He paid $16 and his hair looked horrible. It looked like a bull cut and a flat top mixed. He had a leadership meeting on Wednesday and he didn't want his hair to look bad so he begged me to cut it. I was scared that I would mess up his hair even more than it was before and so I didn't really want to do it. After a while, I finally decided to do it. It ended up looking a lot better then it did after he got it professionally done. Maybe I am a future hair cutter. Haha

This week has been super long and tiring. The most important thing I learned is that as we give our all, the lord truly will bless us in every step of the way. Lets all recommit to do a little better each day and even if its a minute a day, devote that time to the Lord and thank him for all he does for us as well as strive to do his will. Blessings will come. I know that and hope you all will find joy in living the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I love living the Gospel. Its brings me so much joy. I hope you all have amazing weeks full of Joy! I love you all and wish you all the best!
