This week was a great week. We found out that we are moving so we moved out of our tiny room and now have a bigger room and a basement to ourselves. :) Even though moving felt like it took an entire day we had more lessons this week than last week.
I went on exchanges with Elder Carson Carroll.
It was a great exchange. We committed to talk to everyone, because of our goal we spoke to a less active that has not gone to church for many years. We were at the right place at the right time. I wish moments like these happened more. The spirit was with me as well as the spirit of discernment. I open my mouth and the Lord gave me what to say. His name is Hal Barker. His main reason for not going to church and being active is that he is bipolar and has anxiety plus not wanting to change his routine. It was great to testify truth to him and to share my testimony of my conversion with him. In the time we had talked to him his attitude went from “don't try to get me to church because I wont go" to a maybe someday before I die I will come back" to "I will think about it." I am not going to give up on him. I want to see him at church at least once before I leave.

In our area we are getting some good referrals but they have not been home when we have visited.
