Thanksgiving

Last Monday we went out to teach our friend April and at first she said she wasn't interested anymore.  We managed to get her to open up and we were able to answer some of her questions.  She got "anti-ed" by her family and her neighbor, but after we talked to her for a little bit and answered her questions she allowed us to come back.  She was really the only person we were able to teach this week, but it was really exciting that she let us come back. 

On Thursday we went out on our bikes and we rode about 10 minutes away to a town called Essexville.  We tried out a new door approach where we ask people what the birth of Jesus Christ has done for them.  We were able to hand out 2 Books of Mormon in one hour and on top of that we got two return appointments!  On our way back home it started dumping snow.  By the time we got home we looked like snow men.

On Sunday church was cancelled and the problem is when church is cancelled it's usually snowy and very cold.  So we decided to go share the Christ Child video with some members.  We ended up having three members in a row answer and let us in.  Its amazing the spirit you can feel during that video. 

For Thanksgiving we went to the Martinez'. I literally thought I was going to die after one plate of food.  After we ate we went around and visited a bunch of members.  For dinner we went to the Jaimes' and nobody was really hungry so we all had a piece of pie for dinner and called it good.
