Another Monday, another week gone by, and each one feels like it’s going quicker than the last. We stayed pretty busy this week. We had interviews with President Killpack on Wednesday, those are always great experiences. I don’t think I need the reminder every transfer, but it is always nice to know and feel President’s love for me and for the other missionaries.
We also did a ton of service. We counted up the hours, we did about 9 and a half hours of service for people in our area. We saw a miracle through service too! We were raking a member’s leaves, and someone we’d had dinner with a week or so before drove by and told us about a completely inactive member who was getting kicked out by her ex-boyfriend on really short notice. We were able to run over and help her move stuff out and just be there for some support.
We’ve had a lot of teaching opportunities as well. We had an amazing lesson with one of our investigators named Paul, his testimony is so strong and he would’ve been baptized months ago if it weren’t for a predicament he is in. We also met with a girl named Dannit and a guy named Fabian, both people we started teaching recently. Dannit accepted a baptismal date for November 18th (another miracle there!), but Fabian said he’d have to think about it some more first. Pray for him to feel the spirit! We’ve got a lot coming up this week too! We’re going golfing here before too long, so I’ll have to wrap this up. I hope everyone has a safe and happy Halloween! Don’t eat too much candy!
Also, shout out to my good friend Elder Clayton Redding, he just finished his first week in the mission field, serving in the Monticello area of the New Mexico Farmington mission. Good luck man!

Elder Amari wrecked his bike, as a result we had to make a trip to the urgent care center:
