Zone Conference - playing the Harmonica

Monday- today was a pretty fun day! We had p day and then the rest of the night was doing some follow-up with some potentials. We played sports in Appleton on the carpet, which kind of sucked. But then we got to go to dinner with this kid in the Appleton first Ward. He took us to Texas Roadhouse! So that was really good.

Tuesday- well today was the 3rd of July, and the big firework show in Appleton was tonight! So our day was a little rough because nobody was home. We did some knocking in the afternoon with very little success, and then had a couple of BBQs we were invited to. One of them, half of the ward was at. And other one was with a part member family! So we basically had to dinners, and I ate a lot. It was not healthy, but it was good!

Wednesday- Well it was hot today! Like 95 with 95 percent humidity.  So we started the day out by trying to contact people on the streets. The Main Street, College Ave had absolutely nobody on it... So it was pretty rough. And we walked around and I was sweating like crazy. We decided that it would be best to do our weekly planning today so we didn't have to try and bother people. Then we practiced our musical number for zone conference and had dinner! It was a pretty good holiday.

Thursday- today we had zone conference! Elder Raymer and I played come come ye Saints on the harmonica! It was pretty dope! So then we went to Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner and that was pretty good! And even better, I got to go on exchanges afterwards with Elder Jeffs in Appleton 1. So it turned out to be a great day!

Friday - Today, Elder Jeffs and I biked around all day long. Gladly, it wasn't as hot as it was on Wednesday, but it was still pretty warm. We were able to contact a few people and teach a couple of lessons! One of them to a guy who was drunk and hilarious! My butt is pretty sore... Bike seats are the most uncomfortable thing of all time.

Saturday - Today I was back with elder Raymer! We had some good times. Lots of knocking doors, and visiting people! We were able to set up a few appointments for next week! All day today we were walking, so we probably walked almost 10 miles. It was really fun though!

Sunday- Well today we woke up and went to ward council and then church. After church we had lunch. Then we went out to little Chute! There are a ton of people out there that we are working with right now. So we were able to visit them, and set up appointments with them for next week. We are excited!

Spiritual thought-
Here's a little something I found interesting this last week. During sacrament meeting I was reading the words to the him I know that my Redeemer lives and a line struck me. It was the line in the second verse that says he lives to silence on my fears, he lives to wipe away my tears. I think that describes how Christ feels about us perfectly. He is there to help us when we are afraid, and to comfort us when we are frightened, saddened, or just need help! I know that He lives and loves each of us!
