Week 78

Hi Everyone :D

so I don't forget, say happy birthday to Dad for Saturday.

Yes Elder Johnson is staying. so am I this will be his 3rd transfer and apparently I'm the DL - transfers is weird this time so it's on the missionary portal instead of phone calls and I have an option to change stuff that Elder Johnson doesn't have so I assume its DL bc I had it in Rotorua and Elder Pukepuke says DL's have that....  well see haha

It's been a up and down week. S is waiting to be baptised not right now. so that's kind of a bummer. we met 2 girls on the street they remembered Elder Gerrado and had lessons at J's - A is cousins to J (someone we already know) they were all happy to have lessons again now, we just have to get a time off her (J) We had Thanksgiving at the Sprouse's on Thursday (3 Americans in the area...) didn't mean much to me apart from getting a feed. We helped Sis G paint her house and patch a few holes (nifty thing I learnt doing work exp at church offices see did serve me well going there haha) 

M has taken a few steps back sadly with the Word of Wisdom and it hasn't helped him too much as he has a DUI and it's not his first, could present some problems for us seeing he is going to court next month :L 

On Wednesday we met someone nice. C she was part of a charity in collecting stuff in town and she called out to us so we went over to talk and she asked us all these questions about our beliefs she already knew missionaries. sadly she doesn't live in town but it was a nice conversation, if only more people were like that. 

We had a choir of 6 for Sunday. we saw G again just finished a bike race on the Saturday around lake Taupo and Sunday he'd gone for a long hike they just got home he said to try next weekend when they weren't so tired.
