November 8th Update

We've had a busy week! Monday we always feed the Elders breakfast & then we cleaned & washed clothes (p day). Tuesday, November 3rd we had our district meeting. Our Elders here in Jackson always ride with us & we take them out to eat afterward.


These are the missionaries in our district.  They are all really good missionaries!

Elder Compton on the left and Elder Waite on the right

One of the missionary couples said that they deliver Kit Kat  candy bars to the adult members on their birthday with a message & a cute ribbon so we decided to do that & the ones we've delivered them to seem touched so it's been fun & everybody likes it. We delivered several this week. We went to one home & the sister who had the birthday had gone shopping so we gave it to her husband to give to her but he said he was going to eat it! He has a birthday in a couple of weeks so I told him "don't eat it we are going to bring you one in 2 weeks" but he said he was going to eat it!



Wednesday, November 4th we went to our first transfer meeting & it was a very spiritual. Our awesome mission president had all the brand new missionaries bear their testimonies & all the missionaries that are leaving also bore their testimonies. Our Elder Compton was transferred & Elder Waite was made district leader. Elder Reni was transferred in.

We finished up our visiting all the member homes this week on Saturday. (We also cleaned the church for the 3rd week in a row on Saturday but we didn't this week.  Barry typed up a message to leave on the family's door if they aren't home. He has taken 50 families off the roll using people smart to get their new address.

Barry says I remember the people we've visited by their pets--i.e. the family with the 3legged dog, the Great Dane, the long haired chihuahua, the hungry cats (yes I feed them) etc!

Barry also finished up the new home teaching routes & gave them out today.

So I think that pretty much sums it up. We are really looking forward to seeing everyone on Nathan's birthday & in January!
