Well first of all, Happy Halloween!! Almost a week ago now, but that's okay. This week was pretty normal for a week in the mission. For Halloween we were asked to treat it like a normal day until about 6 when it got dark. So we ended up having a lot of time at the end of the day, and we went to members homes. It was really fun! But we were knocking doors about 4:30, and we didn't think anyone would be trick or treating yet, so we were okay. But then this guy answers his door and the first thing he says is "You're a little old for trick or treating aren't you?" So at that point we decided it wasn't really worth it anymore! Haha it made for a good laugh. The rest of the week wasn't super eventful. We went on exchanges with the zone leaders so I was with Elder Van Orden again. It is fun to be around him again! It is starting to get cold enough that if we are outside no one wants to talk to us, so it makes campus and just talking to random people a lot harder. So we have been knocking quite a bit more than the last few weeks. We had interviews with President Williams on Wednesday. It is always really good to get to meet with him and get advice. He is an amazing man, and super smart. And then on Thursday we got to meet with one of our new investigators, his name is Rob. But he is super prepared! He came to us, so we didn't even really find him, he found us! He came to church this week and we will meet with him again this next week! I am excited for the work that happens here in Green Bay. We had the chance to go to a baptism this weekend for a guy that I taught a couple of times. He ended up living in the second ward, so they taught him the rest of the lessons but we got to go to his baptism on Saturday and that was really cool! Watching people make the changes in their lives brings so much joy into your life as well as theirs. So it was really cool.
Hope you all have a great week! Make time for your study of the scriptures! Especially the Book of Mormon! It is so important to get the time in them every day!
