Training (Week 73 In The Field)

This week has been crazy! On Tuesday I got my boy at transfers (the Elder I'm going to train) His name is Elder Zaugg and he is from Canada! Him and I get a long great so far. It's just tough because he knows nothing, and so I have to teach him everything. But it's really fun so far, helping him learn and grow. He's already grown in the past week I've been with him. I hope to be the best trainer that I can be. It's so hard, but I'm learning a lot on how to teach him how to teach.

We have had no luck getting in with our investigators this week, so that stinks because he's supposed to invite someone to be baptized his first week, but it is what it is.

We had dinner with a less active returning to activity, and he gave a great spiritual thought on how we always need to be trying to do our best, and the lord will help you. The spirit was strong and you can see his desire to do better.

We also had dinner with a potential investigator on Friday, who is really strong in her faith, but is super kind to us and loves us. She's Jewish, and believes a lot of the same things we believe, but she doesn't want to leave her current religion. But we gave a spiritual thought from the Book of Mormon and we asked if she would like one, but she politely declined. She is so nice though, and we had a blast at dinner.

That was the extent of our week. I've been trying really hard to get him teaching experiences, but haven't had to much luck yet, but we will continue to keep trying! :)

I hope you all have a fantastic week! Love you!
