Week 38

Greetings from Arizona!! 

Here is the update for the week...

April 27
Today P-day was pretty good we had zone activity where we played glow in the dark dodge ball zombie ball and basketball! Had a really good time hanging out with all the other Elders, go Testostazone! We made visits the rest of the night.

April 28

Today we were on exchanges, Elder Timm came to my area with me. We taught Brother Koutz then did service for him.  I mowed the backyard and Elder Timm weed wacked all in our proselyting clothes!  Sister Quintana had to cancel dinner but dropped off a yummy stuffed crust pizza! Then we shared a message with the Winfield's and biked home!

April 29

Not a super productive day today. We called a lot of potential investigators to clean up our area book. We set goals for the next month and made visits. We had dinner with the Marbles who are awesome and hilarious! We had a good coordination meeting then made visits the rest of the night!

April 30

Today Elder Timm and I woke up early to go to a session at the Phoenix temple because Elder Davis and Owens have been recently. When we got there, to our surprise, President Griffin and Sister Griffin were there with the AP's as well as President Juchau and they were all in the same session which was cool and I got to see the new video the "gold throne one".  Jose the member that took us bought us In and Out afterwards! When we got back we taught Brother Antie.  It was super hot today! Our dinner with the Perkins cancelled because one of their sons has chicken pox. Then we went on splits and I taught the Tryon's. When we got back we visited David Valenzuela and set up an appointment for tomorrow.

May 1

Today we had zone meeting after lunch which was good. We didn't have a dinner but we had a lesson with David Valenzuela tonight finally! It was a very interesting lesson thanks to Brother Hardt, one of our Stake Missionaries.

May 2

Today we did a little weekly planning and had to redo the "Safeguards Online" course. We then went to a potential investigator, Jamie Schmidt, and helped them load a moving truck. He was a really cool guy who is a MMA fighter. We had dinner with the Eaton's and had a really good lesson with them to help her quit smoking. Made visits the rest of the night.

May 3

Today was pretty good.  Wasn't too hungry during Fast Sunday, haha! We thought our Gospel Principles teacher wasn't at Church, so I was going to be mad if we had to teach on no notice again, but he was in class.  Our Elders Quorum lesson was pretty pathetic, the President put on the Joseph Smith movie for the entire lesson. We had dinner at the Hagensen's, which was really good and then made visits the rest of the night.

May 4

Today was pretty unproductive we tried finding a ride to transfers because Elder Davis is getting transferred, so I will have a new companion on Wednesday. We didn't have a dinner.  Our lesson with Nicole Moya cancelled. We taught the Marble's, Arboleda's, and Willing's together.

That is about it for this week.  I will let you know about my new companion next week!

Love you all,
Elder Ashby
