Today
was a pretty good pday! We went hiking in walnut canyon for district activity!
It was fun to get together with everyone and hang out! We taught Travis
Grantham part of the Plan of Salvation which went really well! We extended a
baptismal date and nothing we extended seemed to be a good day so we invited
him to pray about a baptismal date so we will see how it goes!

Freddie
took us to lunch to Route 66 diner! We headed out to ash fork to give a Book of
Mormon to a referral. Herby isn't interested in meeting with us but in reading
the Book of Mormon but you never know maybe he will be sometime! We had dinner
at the London's which was really good breakfast food. Crêpes and breakfast
casserole! Super good! We taught Califia the first half of the Plan of
Salvation which went really well she is having some guilt with reading the Book
of Mormon because she has been taught all her life not to but I have faith that
she will continue to progress! We headed to Bellemont for exchanges and I brought
Elder Ockey to Williams!!!

Had
loads of fun with Elder Ockey today! We get along super well and are really
similar! We went out and did service at Barbara Wilson's house! So much fun we
got to smash windows in the dumpster with a hammer and had to push an atv from
her lower property to her upper property and it had a flat tire! So so tiring
but a great memory I'll never forget! We shared a quick message with Josh and
Nicole because they were sick so we taught them at the door for a few minutes!
We ate dinner at Macdons! We taught the Paynes which went extremely well! We
taught the first half of the Plan of Salvation! It made sense and we talked a
lot about baptism! We will see if we can get them on date soon! Elder Ockey and
I teach very well together! We exchanged back after a great day!

We
had housing inspections and weekly planning today. We were asked to help a new
member in our ward move in. So we rescheduled our dinner to 4 and it turned out
that they weren't going to move in until the next morning so we sat at our
apartment waiting to be picked up to go help for about a half hour before we
were told. Pretty boring day.

We
went to flag this morning to relieve our family search training which was
awesome! Learned a lot and found some family names! We had district meeting
where we learned about becoming master teachers and master finders! We had to
get our oil changed in flag so we didn't get back to Williams until 5:15 and
after dinner we taught Robert the first half of the Plan of Salvation which
went really well talked a lot about baptism and extended a date to him but he
wants to be ready before he will committ to a date. We had the doughnut
challenge at the Flannery's but I was not hungry at all so I failed miserably
and only ate two doughnuts! Elder Meisenbacher ate 11 but not close enough to
Elder Parkinson's record of 18 pretty good day!

Today
when we were headed to online time we got a text from Freddie letting us know
he was expecting us for lunch which was not a concrete plan so we had 2 lunches
today... We made visits up highway 64 and then tracted a little bit when we got
back. We had dinner at the Adams and made visits to end the night. Pretty
boring day.
Sunday
January 25
Today
we had ward correlation which was good! We spoke in church which went really
well I actually was running out of time so I had to summarize the last half of
my talk I spoke for about 15 minutes probably could have for at least 25
minutes! Califia dropped us today she said she feels like she if furthering
herself from God by meeting with us... She said that she will still read the
Book of Mormon and pray about it though. We had dinner at the Smith's and
taught the Christiansen's. We received a referral from salt lake and will
contact her tomorrow hopefully!
Love you all,
Elder Ashby
