Last full week in the mission field!

Hey everybody!

So this week was good! We worked pretty hard this week and I was able to avoid being really trunky, so good things happened. Having Elder Oaks, Elder Kacher, and Elder Dunnigan come and teach us was a real treat, and I'm super happy that I got to hear another Apostle right before the end of my mission. One thing about Elder Oaks that really struck me was how humble and willing to learn he is. He's super cool.

My sister, Gabbi just entered the MTC this past Wednesday, so that's super exciting for her! She's totally going to tear it up!

I think I told you last week about the part-member family that the Clarkston Sisters contacted and set up an appointment for us, but we were able to go and try to teach the non-member lady. Problem is, is that her member husband is the biggest talker I have ever seen in my life :) and so he totally took the show and ran with it and sort of taught the Restoration and stuff. But he taught it in such a way that even us life long members had a hard time following him. We couldn't get a word in edgewise. So it wasn't the best lesson ever, but we got a return appointment, so hopefully we'll be able to have better lessons in the future. 
We were also able to finally contact a less-active guy that our Bishop asked us to try to contact, and we were able to have a good talk with him, and he was really open in having us come and teach him and stuff, so that was really exciting as well.

So just so you all know, this is my last full week as a missionary...

Today, we're going to be going to the Auto Show, so I'm pretty stoked about that :)

Anyways, thanks for reading!
