Gone Down with the Sun

I first have to mention that daylight savings time sucks in fall here. It gets dark at like 5 so then we knock on a door and they get mad at us for being out so late waking everyone up. Then you look down at your watch and it says 6:30.... is it normal to go to sleep at that time? I feel like the only ones up are members ha! Anyways it isn’t new news from last year. Everyone just goes to sleep when the sun goes down.

This week was full of stuff! I had something different everyday. On Halloween we did a split with a returned missionary because he keeps saying he doesn’t know what to do at home. He is super awesome and I bet he served a very faithful mission. Anyways we ended up eating at BWs in honor of the baptism this last weekend. Then we had to be in by 6 and from then on we just called peeps and did comp study. 

The next morning we had Zone Conference and that was awesome! We discussed the “convert” part in Teach repentance and baptize converts. A lot was on how we need to be the vessel that the Holy Ghost can work through to bless the lives of others. We don’t do the converting the Holy Ghost does. I love these two verses Mosiah 3:19 and John 14:26. It has made me have a greater appreciation for the sacrament and the amazing gift that we can have always wit us. That same day we did our exchange with Pulaski. We did the old school way and Elder Sanders came up here with Elder Melville and I. We had amazing lesson with Patti’s husband so he might even be on baptismal date soon.

The rest of the week was the normal teaching repentance. We had a solid lesson with this family that pretty much acted like members ha! Oh and when tracting we ran into this guy who needed a little extra prays so we prayed with him. I feel like only in the south can we stop what we are doing, talk about Jesus, and say a prayer all while in public. I love this place!

Love y’all have a blessed week! Oh P.S. fasting with 8 hours of church is probably one of the hardest things. I am glad I have a testimony on it or it would be brutal! 

Love, Elder Q
