It's kind of becoming fall. I think it will be really pretty when it does.
I know fall is coming because I'm starting to miss Cox Farms. It's too bad
Luke won't be working there this year, but he'll probably find a better job
somewhere else.
Those cookies you sent were super delicious! A testament to that being
that very soon after their arrival, a horde of hungry missionaries flocked down
and ate them all. Missionaries are like cookie vultures....
So are you still sending out my e-mails to people? Or just uploading them
on my blog? I may prefer the latter, cuz then you can cut out the pointless
stuff. But make sure you let the people who were on the list know! Dana said
she wasn't getting e-mails anymore.
This week we were able to meet with a less-active woman we had been trying
to get in contact with for a while. We were planning on sharing a mormon
message on the Book of Mormon, but she didn't have a dvd player! I looked down
the couch at my three-week companion, and the 17 yr. old priest who came with
us, and knew that the fate of that lesson rested on my shoulders. Actually,
this type of scenario is a very common occurrence that I just felt like
dramatizing. But I was able to pull a pretty decent half hour lesson out of my
nonexistent hat. I don't share this to brag about my skills, but just to say,
it's amazing what a mission does for you! Until I started training Elder
Boswell, I didn't know how far I had come. I never would have been able to do
that before! So we still talked about the Book of Mormon, then we gave her 9 or
so yr. old daughter a copy. She was so excited, she kept asking her mom to read
it with her.
Aside from that, the week was pretty good. We weren't able to teach Mandy,
but we got in contact with her, met her husband, and we have an appointment for
next week. We got to go to the temple again this week!
Love you!
Elder Georgia
