December 12, 2016 - Big Week...Assistant!

This week was Very Good! It was super exciting and full of adventure!
Monday we taught Sheku and Bax and actually Sheku's son Tyrell joined. he is 10 and hopefully all 3 will get baptized! for the remainder of that night we kind of just tracted and froze to death.

Tuesday was a big day for us here, we had our Christmas Zone Conference. It went from about 10:00am-9:00pm. There were so many good training portions and Elder Wright and I feel that ours went very well. We had the pleasant surprise of President Craig joining our zone and listening to our portion. That was fun! Everyone really liked the practice that we did that I described last week. President Craig was laughing pretty hard. President and Sister Craig and the Assistants all also gave portions and it was very spiritual. President Craig asked everyone to prepare a talk so I did that Monday night but lucky for me I did not get called on to give it. He called probably around 15 missionaries to give a talk on the spot. It makes you glad that you prepared one when you are called on. That night we watched the Cokeville miracle. It was a pretty good movie I think but I haven't watched one in over 17 Months so I may not be the best of all judges. It was a great day overall.

Wednesday I exchanged with Elder Romeril and it was great. We absolutely froze. We definitely stood awkwardly in a Tim Horton's for a bit to warm up but we found 2 new investigators which was great. We taught Sheku again and I love that man so much!

Thursday we had our exchange with the Assistants and I was with Elder Griffin. We had a bit of a slow day but taught 1 family. We also had ward correlation.

Friday and Saturday are kind of as blur. We taught a bunch of Lessons which was nice because lessons are better than tracting in -30.

Sunday was a bit of a sad day because Sheku, Bax and Tyrell were not abler to make it to church so their date will need to be moved back but they will still be baptized for sure! Sunday was also the day that Everyone has been bugging me about for a couple transfers. it is the night that President Craigs new assistant would be called and some people thought it would be me. I was super nervous and so was elder Wright (probably not quite as nervous) but at 10:23 The call came and President Called me to be his New assistant so I am being transferred to Waverly ward in Winnipeg and will be with Elder Griffin. I am pretty excited but sad to leave Bax and Sheku.
Love you all

Elder Stewart
