Good to here them Cougars are doing nice and ranked. Right now I´m working with Elder Madsen from the other ward. He´s from Ogden, and a Ute fan so he likes to tell me how ugly my “Y” pillow cases are that Mom sent me. We´ll see how ugly they are come December I guess...
Many ups and downs this week. As usual, it rained pretty hard this past week, and investigators made it to church with varying degrees of difficulty. Our Zone Leaders had a meeting with the Stake President yesterday, and apparently they´ll be dividing my area and putting another companionship here soon. That´ll be helpful, as on our area map on our wall in our house, we´ve divided the area into 7 chunks to help us remember to plan accordingly. (such as not marking one appointment in area 1 and another in area 7, which are about 1hr 30 min apart by foot...).
People who live far out sometimes have a hard time motivating themselves to get up and to church on time. We´re thinking on photocopying that article that they had in the Liahona a couple months back about that Brazilian guy who would walk 25 miles every week to get to church. Maybe that´ll give ém some motivation...
We held a screening of The Testaments for our investigators, and it helped them to realize more that the Book of Mormon was a real thing. Everybody had many questions, including how the Nephites knew about Jerusalem and had the book of Isaiah and stuff like that. We got to bust out 1st Nephi and explain, and now they´re gonna start reading the book from the beginning. Marribe, who has her baptism marked for next week, reads tons and might finish before the baptismal date.
As for misellaneous (I really can´t spell, and this Microsoft word program that I´m using doesn´t speak English, so it can´t help me) items, our shower head is broken, (again) but this time was the coolest. I was showering and the heating part wasn´t working, so I tapped it a few times and then it turned on. But, when I finished showering, the heating part refused to turn off. Then the top plastic part started turning bright red, (and I mean really red, like molten lava colored) something that I didn´t know plastic could do. Thinking quickly, (and maybe not too intelligently) I started whacking the shower head with my hand. (the bottom part that wasn´t red) Long story short, I avoided any burns and managed to save the shower head from exploding. On the bad side, I´m back to taking a nice icy shower every day.
Welp, sáll from me.
