No news is good news - week 35

We had an alright week this week, nothing too crazy but still had some great lessons anyway!

This week we have really been focusing on talking with and getting to know the members more and more. There were three families that we really wanted to focus on this week and we were able to see some of them a couple times which was really good. Most of the members in the branch have other people in their families who arent members that we can start teaching so it is really great to be able to meet with some of these people and really start to get to know them.

On Wednesday we had everything fall through except the member family that we had FHE with. It was actually a super bummer day but things always end up working out alright.

On Thursday we had a fantastic weekly planning. We looked through our area book and found a bunch of people who had been baptized kind of recently and we hadnt seen them at church so we wrote some names down and decided to start trying to find some of these people which turned out to be really good.

On Friday we had a missionary Fireside in the evening. We focused a lot on studying the scriptures and really making sure that people understood the promised blessings that come from reading the scriptures and keeping the commandments to actually read the scriptures from modern and olden day prophets.

On Saturday we had a whole lot fall through but another great lesson with the Ashton family about the restoration just to make sure that they really understood the importance of the priesthood and how vital it really is..

Sunday was nothing really out of the ordinary but a fantastic lesson with a woman named Sharon and some of her family. We talked about the Gospel of Jesus Christ and was able to focus a lot on baptism and the need to be baptized.

Its been a pretty great week. Nothing too much out of the ordinary, but I hope you are all doing well and I love you much!

All my love,

Elder Dorrance
