Hey how are you guys doing? Its been an interesting week. We tried to do alot of good but not alot got done. Sadly alot of people did not want to talk to us besides our recent converts or active members. We did teach a few people but not really successfully. Alot of them said don't come back. Which wasnt fun but oh well its really hard on my comp but thats something that he'll have to get use too is all the people that will say nah i'm ok i got my own church. Hes had a bad week so its been rough on both of us since he really doesn't want to go out in the heat and doesn't like it so its a fight to go out or even wake him up in the morning. I didn't think it was that hard to go out and do stuff or even wake up most mornings, yeah even once in a while its really hard but most of the time its not that bad. I almost got to go golfing down here but the guy that was going to take us cancelled last minute so thats to bad. Hes going to try and do it in 2 weeks. I hope so, if not i have to wait till next year to go and i really don't want to wait that long. This next wednesday is zone conferrence. I'm super excited to go to that and see some people. Dinner with brian was really fun. I like it when he comes down i really enjoy it. And Ernie is pretty funny guy i like him alot too. I think that this will probably be the last time i see him before i get home, unless he comes back real quick. Oh guess who i saw this last sunday... Charles Lewis. He just got back from going through the temple. It was awesome. Hes grown so much and its nuts. He taught the priesthood lesson and its really cool to see him teaching and testifying about the gospel, since last time i saw him he wasn't completely sure if it was or not and now hes dedicated to it. That made it all worth it all the doors i tracted down here and all the people that said no. Well thats about it for this week. Not much to report on next week i'll have some pictures and more stuff to talk about. Only 2 weeks left of the transfer which is crazy. Transfers are on sept. 14th. I'm almost 100 percent sure that i'm staying and ferg is leaving so i think that i'm here for the last 3 months. Well have fun with the roof. Send some pictures of it when it gets done so i can see it. Love y'all
