DRAWING OF ZONE

October 29, 2012

Well Monday started off with a relaxing P- day with hamburgers and Mormon movies in the chapel with the zone. Me and Brown and Anderson left to go search for mountain dew like always. Then after we decide what we would do for the rest of the transfer and I was given the responsibility to design the zone shirts and with the counsel of my zone leader (who wouldn’t let me do anything cool) we have a design ha-ha. So Tuesday in district meeting I took a photo of the zone and drew ourselves for the backs of the shirts I'm hoping it will look good on them but we will have to see in a few weeks when the shirts are printed (if we can find a place cheap enough to do so). Anyways after a long Monday night of playing phase ten we decide to play phase ten again on Tuesday. I still have only lost once in the 6 games we have played let’s just say my zone leader wasn’t prepared for the years and years of Lake Powell training that I have at phase ten. Wednesday we did service in this ladies house in the other branch and we moved a humongous stack of bricks in the pouring rain and mud. I had a great time, but the other elders didn’t ha-ha. I found a salamander and it bit my ear but the picture is on a different elder’s camera. So Thursday work visit with my district leader we walked the whole day so he could realize how giant my area is and how difficult it is to find people, let’s just say he got the message ha-ha. So low and behold we get home that night and guess who the zone leader is doing a work visit with… yea Elder Brown so we all played phase ten and I won on the tenth phase by points ha-ha it was a close one but yea clutch no big deal. Then Friday my companion gets sick. He has an internal fever from the food and we got to take a day off. So I practically read the whole New Testament while we tried getting his fever down. Saturday we left and tried visiting all of the investigators that just might come to church, only found one. Dang it is said we have tons of baptismal dates, but we can find anyone to remind them and to excite them to come to church. Let’s just see what happens tomorrow. Sunday morning we are late to the church ha-ha took a long shower. So we get in the chapel and Marisol Vera is sitting with a member her 3 kids weren’t with her but hey she was. Then we were like dang that’s sweet and right at that moment mister Nils Alacin walked in with his backpack on without fear. Nils is a 19 year old kid who I found on a work visit with my zone leader. This kid is more prepared than anyone I have met in the mission. The kid always reads the pamphlets and he is always at home when we have appointments and when he can’t make an appointment he calls us and re-schedules. The kid's questions are always about the next lesson and I think this kid will be a missionary. So I was pretty pumped on Sunday after a week were no one was in thier house. So this week we are all healthy and the zone has baptismal dates. In October we didn’t make the goal, but November we have the potential of surpassing it.

Realize the little miracles in your lives every day. God is a God of miracles. He is the same yesterday today and tomorrow. He cannot change or He would cease to be God. Pray for miracles, pray to recognize them in your lives. Ask and ye shall receive knock and it shall be opened unto you.--
