Week Thirty





This week was straight up crazy. It was really tiring too. 

So we started the week off in Plymouth for zone p day which was really funny. When that finished we had to drive to Laconia for exchanges.

Exchanges were a pretty good time. We were out for about half the day when the Elder I was exchanging with stomach decided it didn't want to work anymore😉. So we got trapped in the apartment for like the last 3 hours. I taught some fun lessons out there in Laconia. It was good being in something that somewhat resembled a city again😂 Then we drove home for like 3 hours. It was a good time though.

On Wednesday we got to work in the area for a little bit. It was pretty good. But then we had to get packed and ready for another few nights away from home. So after teaching a really cool lesson on the Book of Mormon we drove to Randolph and picked up those Elders and then we drove back to Laconia and stayed the night.

The next morning was Zone Conference at the Joseph Smith Memorial. I'll be having it there as long as I'm in this area. So that's cool. We learned a lot about what we are going to do to become better teachers. So it was pretty good. Elder Stegeman and I got a really cool picture of us teaching people there too. So that was awesome. Then we had our interviews with President after zone conference. So we got to stay there and wait for like 3 extra hours.

After that we went to the KFC/Taco Bell that was built in the same location Joseph Smith got his leg worked on. So of course we got some chicken legs in honor of Joseph Smith. Then we got the opportunity to stay another night with Laconia.

After that we drove back home and finally got to stay in our area. So the past few days we have been trying to catch back up with our area. Then to make the week exciting I got to give a talk in Sacrament Meeting. So that was awesome! I don't mind giving those. It's almost a relief as a missionary to give the talk. You don't have to do any extra explaining to investigators after the service😂 You never know what people might say up there.

This week taught me a lot of patience though. Since I'm so far up in Colebrook it takes along time to get everywhere! Now that it's over though I'm very excited to get working again. We found a few new investigators that are awesome, and I'm excited to start teaching them! Anyways I hope y'all had a little bit more of relaxing week then me.
