Hi hi!!
Life is funny. When I have all the time in the world to write, I
have nothing to write about. But when I actually have things to talk about my
time is limited. We are going on an adventure downtown to see the CN Tower
(until recently the tallest freestanding structure in the world) so I don't
have a ton of time to write. So let's get to it shall we?
First. Last P-Day we went and played football to celebrate
American Thanksgiving and it was super fun. My flag football quarterback days
came in handy and I threw for like six touchdowns. (be impressed) Also
I am COMPLETELY out of shape and had a hard time keeping up with all the
new missionaries. Sadly, no amount of exercise done for thirty minutes
in a basement can keep you in football playing shape. It was rough. We
ended up waddling around like old men for most of the week because we were so
sore. Yay football!
Tuesday was sweet. We taught a high school student we found at
the bus stop and he was really interested and wants to learn more. We're
meeting with him again this week and hopefully we will have good news come next
week.
Wednesday was also good. Not sure what happened. I never seem to
be able to remember what happens on Wednesday. Its a problem.
Thursday was Car Fast again. Good day. Not anything too exciting.
We celebrated Thanksgiving by saying how grateful we were to have a car on the
other days. Haha. It was fun. Very tiring day.
Friday we got news that our area boundary was changed. It moved
west two major streets. So now the church is in our area and we picked up a few
exciting potential investigators. We had dinner with a member and I tried
sardine paste on my pizza. It was....interesting. Worth trying once. Not sure
if it is something I will keep doing. :)
Saturday was good. We went on exchanges again so I
worked with my district leader. It was fun. I also taught the English as
a Second Language class that we offer as missionaries. Usually the West Elders
teach it but since it is now our area we will be teaching. Its really fun and
reminds me how little I know. The class is doing very well and had five
new students in the past two weeks and they hadn't had any for months. Very
exciting.
Sunday was a blur as usual. Chris came to church and is getting
along very well in the ward. The problem is we can never teach him more than
once a week because he is difficult to get a hold of. Ah missionary work. :)
Overall it was a very good week and the future of this area is
very bright. We teaching a girl tonight that the West Elders found before
the split that wants to be baptized! We'll see how it turns out. :) Pray for my
investigators and pray that we'll find new ones! I love you and hope you are
having a fantastic holiday season!! Do good things!
Love,
Elder E. Smith
