This was a really good week. Sorry no new pics, but I will work on that. Last week we played soccer and it was a blast. It was so much fun. This week was a pretty open day. We worked really hard to find somebody. We did! We found this guy named Forrest. He is straight from Texas and he loves the Lord. He said we could come back and we tried another approach of inviting him to the Ward party. It is a little country ho-down. That has been a huge aspect of finding for us recently.
Since everything was crazy today, I’m just gonna hit the highlights. We had a meeting in Vancouver. It was a really good meeting. They usually are and this one just helped us see more of what we can do. I had a couple lessons this week with Brandon and we taught him some of the commandments. We talked about chastity first and then we went to tithing. When we got there to teach tithing he said, “Elder's, I cheated. I read the pamphlet before you came.” He recently just found out how to use the Gospel Library app. It was awesome! So we had him teach us tithing.
I went on exchanges and we did some service in the morning. And spring here in the Northwest could either be 60° and sunny or it can be 40° and pouring down rain. This time it was pouring down rain and the service got canceled. But that day we felt like we needed to find a priesthood holder. We went and looked for a guy who we thought could be a potential leader in the ward. The place we felt like we needed to go was in an extremely wealthy neighborhood. But we worked hard we didn't quite find him. But we will if we still work hard.
That's about it. Sorry for such a short email but things are going really well.
Love,
Elder Astle
