Dear Family and Friends, Monday, March 2, 2015
I can not see any of the mountains
from here. They have large rolling hills here with lots of trees that block
your view of the mountains. We are really close to Mt. St. Helens here, but I
have never seen it. In Camas we could see Mt. Hood and the tip of Mt. St.
Helens, but not here.
Weekly outlook:
Monday: p-day with basketball and
nothing exciting. Tonight we taught a lesson and put her on date for
baptism.
Tuesday: this morning we helped
unload the bishops storehouse truck and helped deliver food to needy ward
members. Today we interviewed an individual for baptism. Tonight we had
a ton of lessons. Everyone around here is really friendly, so almost everyone
will let you teach them a lesson, but people rarely follow commitments.
Wednesday: today we had our iPad
conference. We got new iPads that we will be able to keep after our missions. We also got Facebook taken away for at least a few
months so that they can train us on how to properly use
it. Tonight we taught a lady.
Thursday: today we did a lot of work
in Kalama, a town a few miles up the freeway that is in 2nd
ward. Tonight we taught a lady about some commandments. We then taught an individual about the priesthood.
Friday: this morning we taught a lady
again. We taught her the rest of the commandments. Tonight we took an individual up to the Longview stake center to show him the baptismal font and give
him a lesson. We taught about temples.
Saturday: the biggest thing that
happened today is that we taught a lady. We taught her the plan of salvation. A gentleman came to the lesson. He is the 16 year old who owns a bakery.
Sunday: 6 hrs of church. 2nd ward
PEC and ward council. We only had one investigator at church. That was
pretty depressing. Tonight we taught a family.
