Crazy!

   Hey family and friends. Sorry for such a late email. We went the library today and for some reason the computers at the library would not let us get us on any of the church websites. So I'm now at the Hatchers house emailing you on there iPad. Haha don't worry I asked Pres. Gerber if we could and he said yes. :)
    Now onto the week! This last week has been a very good week for us in the Blue water area! On Monday we were able to go to the Bills and have a great dinner and also shared an uplifting message. We talked about the sons of Mosiah and of course Alma the younger. Just talked about how we can all just stand up for our faith and other things in life. Without backing down.
 On Tuesday we did not have much to do but we were able to make a great day out of it. First we went over to the local hospital and asked if we could putt ourself down on a list so we can give blessing and service. The we went to a less active house, Brother Rae who we have not been to for a long time. Brother Rae is about in his 80 amazing man but his health and other things are stopping him from coming back to church. Later in the afternoon we were able to see a family that just moved into the ward and hoping to start coming back to church. Around 6 we went with the Zimmers to a nice restaurant that looks over to Canada.
    Wednesday we had District meeting and it was great. The focus of district meeting was on teaching with unity and also adjusting your teaching needs to the person. Chapter 10 of PMG. This week focus will be on more finding and the Lapeer Sisters will be giving the instruction/discussion. Other then that we went and help people in the ward move and stopped by a couple of family's.
 Thursday Elder Leonard had his one year temple trip! So that meant that Elder Wallace and I had to go down to North Shores with another Elder and help him in his area. Haha one funny thing is later that night Elder Leonard did not have dinner so we went to Panda Express in Troy. Guess who I saw......it was Jazlyn (Curney) a family I baptized in Troy about two years ago. It was pretty awesome. Sounds like the family is doing great!
   Friday and Saturday we basically just stopped by less actives and knocked doors which is great! Found one new investigator which is always great. We are planning to see Sean this Thursday but sadly I will be on an exchange with Elder Peterson in his area of Lapeer.

  It's crazy to think that this week is my last full week of being a missionary. It's sad butt it will be a great last week of working hard and having fun all at the same time! :) I will be shipping my bike home tomorrow, I have the box and all just need to dropped off at UPS and swipe the card sadly.

We'll love you family and can't believe it's already that time. :) I know that the church is true and really that I have and will be learning a lot this last week.
