We taught Quindee again this week and when we finished the lesson we said, well Quindee that is all of the lessons haha and she asked, Do I have to pick a date right now? haha so she did and she is getting baptized next week! Super exciting! She is way solid.
We went on exchanges this week, I stayed in our area and Elder Buntrock went to first ward area. All of the appointments we had fell through or they didnt answer their doors haha so I did quite a bit of finding with the missionary I was with. It is crazy how much finding we do in second ward area, but we have so much more work going on in Lakeside branch and YSA, hey it's all the same work though. Like we are teaching a bunch of YSA people, no one super solid (except Quindee of course) but it is still exciting, lots of teaching appointments.
Sherry is one of our investigators in Lakeside who is super prepared. She was going to get baptized years ago but couldn't overcome some things and this time around she is ready to give those up and be baptized. We taught her a couple times this week and she is doing well! the members in Lakeside are super missionary minded and awesome fellow-shippers. We are going to finish up the lessons today and then have her baptismal interview on Thursday then her baptism on Saturday. it is pretty exciting!! she is awesome!
So we taught Vlad this week on skype. He speaks English very well, so it was mostly in English but some things were said in Russian so it was fun to practice. I have forgotten so much it is kinda frustrating, but that's alright I'll just study it in college. Back to Vlad though I am not quite sure where to go with him because the city he lives in is about a day and a half journey to the nearest church... maybe he will move or something so he can be closer to a church ha
We had sushi for lunch the other day and I am not a huge sushi fan but it was really good this time, we also had euros..the pita tacos with lamb meet..just tryin new foods and liking them ha its been good.
We have also been making family mission plans with the members we eat dinner with just goals they have to help the work progress, whether it be with non members, less active or active members. we help them set "SMART" goals and then taker a picture of it so we can follow up. It seems to be working pretty well and tons more members are doing work, its cool.
We also had interviews with President this week, he is going around the mission and doing interviews. He is so awesome and so inspiring and such a great example. You can truly tell that he loves the Lord and the missionaries and this work. He is awesome.
Transfers are coming up but I think we both might be staying, but then again you never know. I guess we will find out next week.
Love you and hope you have a good week!
Love Elder David Witt
they have an outdoor hockey rink in town, it was pretty cool.
