Hey Everybody,Well wow that's all i got to say its been a crazy week! We have been working super hard this last week and got a lot of new people to teach. We got 5 new ones which is more in one week then i think i have gotten in one week before. We also taught alot of lessons but sadly we didn't have a baptism this last week, the font broke and then the power got messed up so they moved it to this next week. Which is crazy, so we will have 3 baptisms this next Sunday. I really don't know how its going to work because they both have different programs going so it will be fun trying to figure it all out, which falls on me because our ward mission leader doesn't talk to us and the Bishop is good guy but really busy so he just says whatever you guys want. So its kind of stressful but oh well it will all work out hopefully. Oh yeah speaking of the power out at the church. We finally broke 100 degrees for 1 day. It was a pretty bad storm and i guess it knocked out the power at the church so we didn't have church yesterday, which was really weird. I was thrown off all day because of it. We also went on exchanges this last week for a day. It was a good break and really fun and then we are going up to Paul's Valley to do exchanges on Thursday till Friday night. Oh yeah so it us, 2 elders in Paul's Valley and then 2 in Ada. Everybody is at least a 45 min drive away. So we don't really see anybody else on p-day. So its just us down here. I would drive up to see somebody else but its not worth the 100 miles so we don't. Our phone number is (580) 277-1452 and we don't have anything really next Saturday so we wont plan on a dinner or anything really. Brian should hopefully remember a little bit how to get down here its pretty easy just go down I-35 from the city and go down to you hit Ardmore. Its about 2 hours from the city depending on how fast you drive. Today we are just going to relax and catch up on some sleep probably and see what happens go look at some stores to see what they have. I am getting the letters its the same address as before. I don't need anything. I'm doing great so don't worry about sending anything out with Brian. Well that's about it for this week. I'll take some pictures of the baptisms and send them next week and some other fun stuff. Talk to you guys next week
Love y'allElder Downs
