So we did have transfers and I am staying. Elder Thompson is leaving. This is kinda unusual but I am really excited. My new companion is Elder Davenport. I like him he is a stud.
This was a really awesome week!
Monday we gave a baptism interview for the Mount Tabor Elders. She was solid. I really like doing those.
Tuesday we were on exchanges with the Alameda missionaries. I got to go serve there again. It was a blast! I loved it. We talked to so many people. We taught a sweet guy named Theo. He was just down to learn and down to meet. It was a good day. I was with a new missionary. He needed a pump up and Theo was just the guy for the job. Then we taught a less active lady. She just has a hard time reading for herself. We helped make it easier for her. It was a good lesson. We had a stellar day, I was pooped! We worked it to the ground.
Wednesday we had a zone conference. We had a training on planning. It went well. We had to make it fun because nobody likes a long sermon on planning. We did a good job and we definitely prepared for it. It was a really good meeting. We all learned a bunch of things. A lot of the trainings were about faith. Then we had a sweet lesson with Nate. He is a less active that is turning his life around. He has made some really big changes. It is cool to see.
Thursday we had a good day. We have been working really hard to find some new people.
Friday was our planning day and we have learned some new ways to plan. It doesn't take as long anymore. Then we had an exchange with Elder King and Elder Pabst. They are way awesome! We went up and blitzed their area. I learned a bunch on how to ask for referrals. It was a bunch of fun.
Then we went out and tried to find some new gators. We applied what we learned and it seemed to help us out a bunch.
Sorry this letter isn't very long - we had to run up to Vancouver and drop of an Elder to go home.
Elder Astle
