Well this week was pretty uneventful. It seemed that we saw almost everyone on monday that was an investigator everyone else decided that they were to cool for the preaching school. 

But I did get a new companion and I did stay as junior companion. But my new companion is from Spanish Fork Utah or as I'm told they say it, not from him but others, Spanish Fark. But he’s a shorter guy only has 1 sister who's on a mission in Huston Texas. He’s a swimmer who placed 5 in state for the butterfly stroke who likes to rock climb and is apparently ok at it. He’s a pretty good missionary haven't had much opportunity to teach with him because it seemed that everyone we tried decided to not be home at the time that we tried um but I guess you got to do what you got to do. I look forward to my time with him which could be as long as 4 months or as short as 5 weeks depending on what my good ol faith full mission president decides to do.

But the week did go ok I guess there were a few good things. We were able to see a less active and teach him a short message that was apparently a Do Not Contact for a while. I’ve discovered on my mission that a lot of times that missionaries put Do Not Contact on people because they just said they didn’t think they were going to come back or something at that nature when really there was good potential to teach them and when the spirit does the teaching it can change there hearts as it says in Mosiah 5:2 And they all cried with one voice, saying: Yea, we believe all the words which thou hast spoken unto us; and also, we know of their surety and truth, because of the Spirit of the Lord Omnipotent, which has wrought a mighty ^achange in us, or in our hearts, that we have no more disposition to do ^bevil, but to do good continually.

We did strike out more then we hit but hopefully the opposing team couldn't hit a pitch if they wanted to either. I guess it aint how many you miss but how many the other team doesn't get sometimes if my analogy will work ha. 

But I look forward to the weeks ahead don’t know if they will all be good or some bad but I guess we will find it out. But love yall and I’ll talk at ya later.
