P-Day #6

I'm getting so confused on which week it is! I started my emails to Nathan by counting P-days, so that's what I'm going to go with! ;)

P-Day # 6 (including MTC time) was Jan. 29, 2018. Here's Nathan's email and some pictures - heavy on the pics this week!

From Elder Donaldson: This week was crazy! So after PDay we had a zone conference on Tuesday which was awesome i got to see Elder Belnap and we got some good training. Then Wednesday we had a district meeting and then exchanges with the Zone Leaders Elders Schut and Berry but that got cut short because some other elders were fighting and they had to take care of that. Then Thursday we had a bunch of service which was awesome we helped at the senior center and at the food bank. Friday was our Mission Temple Day!!! So we drove like 2 hours to portland, i love the Portland Temple it's marble and gorgeous it's my home screen on my phone now! That was fun then Saturday i was on exchanges in Seaside which is probably the most beautiful place i have been with the beaches right next to the evergreens it was gorgeous!😍😍😍 and Sunday we had a regional stake conference so we got to hear about member missionary work from elder christofferson! Elder Hofmann has been kind of annoying me but we are getting along better after i kind of yelled at him and maybe chewed him out a bit but it's all love! Our investigator Carole has had a rough couple of weeks so we're rescheduling her baptism from this Saturday to sometime later in February. Pam and Molly are basically ready for baptism they're just thinking of a date! I love Warrenton and I love the people!

Week 2!

Nathan's email this week: This week was awesome! On Tuesday we had a meeting in Vancouver so Monday night we drove over because it takes two hours. We stayed at the AP's apartment and went to the Mission Office the next day. We got to watch the announcement of President Nelson and the Press Conference which was good then i got to see my buddies from the MTC which is always great everyone's doing awesome! We have a little bit of a competition to see who can come up with the most Bigfoot/Sasquatch apparel or accessories so if you want to help me out ;). Any way we had some good training Tuesday then we drove 2 hours back and had dinner at a members house. The members here are amazing they're so strong and loving with our investigators and so willing to help. Pam Barela who is are super elect investigator who studies seriously everything she just wants to know everything there is to know, we were gonna talk about the steps to baptism then she said "I already lo...

P-Day #8 - Hey All!

This week was crazy we went on exchanges twice! So on Wednesday i went with one of my Zone Leaders Elder Schut in Warrenton it was my first time leading the area which is weird but it was fine and Elder Schut and I had a good time meeting with our investigators and recent converts. Then i was with Elder Schut again! In Astoria though, in Astoria they have the ZL's but also the Spanish missionaries so the apartment is always a party! We had a good day with allot of service and even found a new investigator! For Astoria... We also had Stake Conference which was great President and Sister McAteer surprised us when they showed up and spoke! The topics were Missionary work and building Zion it was awesome! After the beginning of the week it actually got sunny there's no fog anymore! But since the cloud cover is gone it is colder in the morning but it's still in the 40's haha i love it here so much! Couple frogs from service  Beautiful drive  ...

P-Day #9 - Transfers!

 I'm almost done with my first transfer! We got the transfer email of where people are going to be  on Saturday  but I'm not moving and neither is Elder Hofmann, I imagine we have one more transfer together then he's probably going to move also  tomorrow is my two month mark! Our District stayed the same except one of the Long beach sisters missions ended so she goes home  tomorrow ! And her companion is staying and training. We did get a new Zone Leader and one of the Spanish Missionaries left from Astoria we see the Zl's and the Spanish Elders more than our actual district because they're closer and our building is in Astoria and Seaside and Long beach both have their own buildings, we are going down to Seaside today to a couple of beaches and the Nike Outlet so pictures to come! We got some really weird new investigators this week I can't remember if i told you about Dennis but we went to Subway for lunch and an old man came up to us and said "Hey ...
