This was a strange roller coaster kind of week. To start, last Tuesday we had Zone Conference where all the missionaries were given Samsung Galaxy smartphones at the end. They are replacing our old phones for now, but as new missionaries come in they will enter the field with smartphones rather than tablets until eventually all of the tablet users are gone and each individual missionary has a smartphone.
Each night of the week we had a lesson, unfortunately Wednesday during a dinner appointment my illness hit again full force. The way we got around that dilemma though was by having Elder Daugherty go out with one of the zone leaders to teach while the other stayed with me. This ended up leading to an exchange with the zone leaders Thursday to Friday night. I hear that the lessons went well though.
Saturday we had a great lesson with one of the families we are teaching and Sunday they came to church along with five other investigators! We were excited, and it was was the most I think I have seen come to church that I can remember. The best part is that a lot of them are very solid investigators.
Finally that leads to today. This morning we had a temple trip up to the Portland temple. It was nice being able to recharge this final week of the transfer and prepare for whatever may happen. At any rate, thank you for all of the support and know that the Lord is blessing this area!
