April 3/2017 - Fun Week

This week was nice. We had/have a missionary who is sick staying with us for this whole week. He is with us overnight and in the evening but he stays in the mission office during the day. I feel pretty bad for him. Hopefully he can get better before having to go home but we are not sure yet. 

Monday we tracted quite a bit. 
Tuesday was district meeting and then we tracted quite a bit. Our area has been hard to upkeep with being out of town and having so many Zone Conferences. Miracles are real though! I will talk about that in a second. 

Wednesday was an exchange with the Saskatoon ZL's. I exchanged with Elder Griffin. That felt a little funny because he just left here like a month ago. We had a pretty good day full of tracting. It is getting warm here so tracting and Street contacting are way more effective now and we don't need to worry about getting kicked out of apartment buildings. That night we had a dinner appointment with Bishop Smith. I think the members might get a little frustrated because we are always on exchanges so it is never the two of us at a meal appointment together. It was a good day though and we found a bunch of Potentials. 

Thursday was MLC. We brought all of the leadership in from the whole mission so we had an extended one. It went from 10:30-5:00. Elder Wright and I trained on how to maintain baptismal dates after we set them. It went well. We surprised Sister Craig by asking her to come to the front and we practiced setting expectations after settinga baptismal date. At the beginning she was like "Just call me Carol". That was weird haha. That Night we exchanged with the Regina ZL. I was with Elder Francis and we found a new investigator and set a baptismal date with him. 

Friday we finished the exchange and I got to go split with Elder Timms (Old Companion) to go teach a turnover lesson. His name is Rico and he is super solid. he moved from the Philippines and he has a girlfriend in the Philippines who is a member. He showed up at the YSA ward and they have taught him like 5 times. Then they found out that he is 36 so now he is ours and he is getting baptized April 15! That is transfer week so that will be dead but it will be great!

Saturday was Conference! So was Sunday! Rico came and so did Emmanuel. The work is Hastening! Rico loved the talk on Sunday about the guy who met with the missionaries because of his Girlfriend. So relatable!

Hope Everyone had a great week! 

Love Elder Stewart
