Hi Everybody,
It's crazy how long I've been out here!
Here's the rundown of my week:
Monday:
I left a white shirt at
another elders apartment from the previous week then we went to an old
church and climbed up the spire.
Then we went to Walmart to grab a few
things and I got a candle thing so our house doesn't smell like old man.
Then went to the library to email and then had dinner at the the
second counselor in our Bishopric's home, and we had cafe Rio, which
isn't out
here, and it was so good!!
Tuesday: we talked to bishop after he finished feeding the cows and then
headed to a little town where I found that big wheeled bike and it was
so funny to sit on it.
Wednesday: (hahaha) I threw a gift card at my comp and nicked his ear
really bad on accident. Woops! We went into town to go see a woman that we've
been teaching and we both have felt like she's been avoiding us, and so
it's kind of sad, but we just keep trying to get a hold of her. We had
dinner with our ward mission leader and then went caroling with the
youth for their mutual it was super fun!
It was so fun to help people, and then we had a white elephant thing and I got a spot-light and it was super fun shining it into the field at the cows and at bishops house hahaha!
Friday: The bishop came into our house and
talked with us again for like a half hour and went our finding for the
rest of the day.
Saturday, we got up and put jeans on! Sister Thomas asked us to deep
clean the church for the special day of service. After that we made
some breakfast cuz we where hungry. After making breakfast we headed
out to a small town to try some people, and started knocking. After that
town, we were going to go to the next town over, when bishop called and
said to get home so we did, and we went out with sister Mayther (and her
dad) who's going home soon, and went caroling again to some families and then ate dinner at bishops house and it was great!
Sunday, we had asked 8 people to come to the special sacrament meeting
and 0 of them came! It was really sad, but our Sunday service was really
nice! Elder Castell sang a song and then we had a linger longer after
it, ( a linger longer is where everyone brings food to church and you
all stay there after and eat because everyone lives forever away cuz
we're in the sticks!) It was sooo good! We had some smoked pulled pork
and lots of other things! We helped clean up then had to head back up
to the little town where we were Saturday, for a guy that said to come
back, he didn't answer so we went to the next town over to try this guy
named Terry that I've never met before and tried to get ahold of a few
times, I
thought it would be a waste of time because we've tried him like three
times ,
and he didn't answer. This time he answered, and we had an hour lesson!
And it was crazy because it was my first time meeting him and I asked
him to be baptized! Talk about listing to the spirit! It was the most
amazing experience.
Love you all! Merry Christmas!
Elder Roylance
