Elder Van Orden!

This was a really fun week! We started with district meeting on Tuesday. So we were in Green Bay last Monday for P-day, and then we drove down again Tuesday, and then Tuesday night we went out to the middle of nowhere to do some work. We met Elder Van Orden in Crivitz, which is a small town pretty far west of our area. So we had a busy night Tuesday, and then on Wednesday we drove out back to Crivitz to drop Elder Van Orden off, and then drove down to Oconto. So Wednesday was full of driving, and then Thursday became a pretty normal day... except I was sick... So it was a little rough. But it was just a 24 hour thing and Friday morning I felt really good, so it wasn't as bad as it could have been. So then on Friday we were able to teach a lesson to a guy named Chris, and he told us he wanted to come to church! He couldn't come this week, but hopefully next week. We were also able to talk to another investigator twice this week. Her name is Patty. We talked to her and her friend for a little while on Saturday, and they invited us back again yesterday! So we are hoping to invite Patty to baptism this next week!! Other than that pretty much a normal week of work! It was good! 

Here is a spiritual thought for ya: 

There is a talk by Brad Wilcox called "His Grace is Sufficient", and it was quoted a lot by a speaker yesterday in our Sacrament meeting. But one of the lines I like in his talk is "Christ doesn't make up the difference, he makes all the difference". We cannot, under any circumstance make it back to our Heavenly Father on our own doings. We all will make mistakes, but thankfully because of Christ we have the chance. He makes ALL the difference in our lives. I know it to be true. I get to testify of it daily and I love it. I hope you all have a great week!!
