Walk Off

09.05.11







So this week was really awesome. We went to the hospitals here and put our names on the chaplain's list, so we are going to be able to go and see some people there. The main purpose of it is that it may lead us to more people. We also went to the old folks home here on the island to See if we could do some service, no its not called del boca vista, its called the pines. It seriously is the saddest place in the world. I asked this old guy John what he liked to do there and this was his response "uhh, go mad". It was pretty funny and sad at the same time. I had to feed an old lady and all she wanted to do was eat her cake. It was really pretty depressing. Im really glad that grams can take care of herself and that she no matter what will never go into a place like that, i wont let it happen. The nurses there are like the nurses in happy gilmore. We did a lot of service this week. We helped Jackie ebanks move into another apartment in the heat of the day and there were 5 of us there and 2 of us working, guess which 2 haha. We moved what i think were the heaviest TVs in the world they were huge and super heavy and of course she was moving to the 3rd floor. I biffed it pretty bad on one of our trips up with the behemoth TV. We also moved some furniture for sis Robinson, and she also lived on the top floor. We moved her furniture up and put it together. This whole week we have been trying to build up our teaching pool. So we have been knocking a lot of doors in the heat and we really didn't have too much success this week. But we are planing on a super star week this week. There was on really cool experience that we had, A lady named Lesbia and her family kinda came up out of the blue, Elder Montgomery and I knocked their door way back in June and she didn't seem to interested but we went and saw them this week and they have been wanting to learn more about Joseph Smith, she said they read the pamphlet and haven't been able to get it out of their minds, but they lost our number. So its really cool that we got to see them again, I hope everything keeps going well with it. We had a branch talent show Friday night and Elder Mccready and I did a zoolander walk off. It was a lot of fun. http://airhart.tumblr.com/post/9818406770/the-walk-off you can check it out here. We had a really good Sunday, had some good investigators come to church and some good lessons. Then we went to dinner at Jordan and Margarets and it was a potato bar and it was really good, I love potatoes. Just so everybody knows the box was full.
