Thanksgiving!

This week was great, we stayed busy with lessons and member meals.

Wednesday night Elder Alton and I were on exchanges and we went and had an awesome lesson with a sick Less Active family. After that we went knocking for a little bit but, had no success, and I told him we should go apologize to the guy we made mad. Lol So last Sunday when we were Mansion Knocking we knocked on one and the guy wasn't interested. Then as we were driving out we took the wrong road and went down to this guy’s pond and had to back up and drove on his grass a little bit and when Elder York got out to back us, the guy was up at his house yelling at us to get the truck out of there. So we did and he came to the road at the top and cussed us out and took a picture of our license plate. He told us that the ground is really soft down there so we made huge ruts. We didn't feel like we did, it was dark so we couldn't see if we did. We wanted to go and apologize to the guy the next day but Elder York and Elder Decker were not wanting to. They said he will be super mad at us still, or there is no point in doing it. Idk why they thought that. But Wednesday night we went back and apologized. We got let into the mansion and talked to the guy and he was happy to see us. He said there were no ruts and he smiled and laughed and it went great. After that we felt soooo good it was awesome! The other guys felt pretty dumb after we told them.  

Thanksgiving day we had Breakfast with Sis Thornbloom then went and played ultimate frisbee with the zone. Then had dinner, then another dinner, then another dinner! haha We were so full! It was all good food tho! After that I called up some Investigators and got them to the Church so we could play basketball and burn some calories! That went great, and felt great!

On Saturday we were able to attend 2 awesome baptisms for the Zone! One was for a 13 year old boy who’s dad finally let him get baptized after 2 years. Missionaries that taught him and had gone home came back for it. It was a full house and was awesome!

Yesterday we had a good time mansion knocking! Talked to some great people and even got a potential investigator haha. Also, yesterday Rosie received a calling to be a Ward Missionary!!!!! So awesome! I’m so happy she gets to come to the Ward Coordination meetings now and will share the Gospel with all her friends and Family! I love this work!!

Yesterday we got an awesome Investigator to Church and he bonded really well with the members! It was awesome, we are seeing so many miracles out here and I love it. Transfers aren’t for another 2 weeks, so that’s good!

Love you all! Elder Anderson
