P Day #7

Yah i already lost track of what week I'm on but i have transfers marked on a calendar so it wont be too big of a surprise for me. Since I am still training it's like a 95% chance I'm gonna stay in Warrenton with Elder Hofmann for this next transfer at least but after that it is likely that he'll get transferred out and I'll be leading this area! I've already told President McAteer that I want to train early and often, not sure if he took me seriously but I love that guy and I know he loves his missionaries.

 It has been very rainy and grey and foggy on Tuesday we went to Rainier, Oregon, i think, for a mid- transfer interview with President McAteer which went well but it was sunny for probably about 15 minutes so that was nice i haven't really seen the sun since though. On the way back we stopped at the Logger which is a diner and had huge burgers pictured below haha it was a 1 pound pattie.

 This week we've really been focusing on finding since Warrenton is pretty much out in the boonies tracting isn't effective at all so we do a lot of member work trying to reactivate and get part member families and stuff like that. We did find 3 new investigators this week! We found Sue Moore a lady in her 60s with 2 compound fractures in her back because she just moved in the same complex as our recent convert Michelle. She's super Christian but her bible knowledge is lacking so we help her with alot of the words we've only met with her once but she is at Michelle's house so much that we just visit Michelle to have a lesson with Sue! Our 2nd investigator is sister price her husband and son are members but she is super skeptical. Then one of the members daughter's is investigating the church which is awesome! Carole is doing well her baptismal date got moved to Feb 23rd! Pam and her daughter Molly are super elect but they are waiting to pick a date which is weird but whatever they're awesome and not going anywhere. 
Yesterday at church we were talking and a member told us that Brother LeChurch was sick so we texted his wife to see if we could come over. A little preface brother LeChurch is like 90%blind in both eyes so he can't make out details but he still chops wood and sells it for money because he is retired it's mainly just a hobby but it does help he just does it very carefully haha. His seeing eye dog Clayton is dope. But either way he does have Bronchitis so i got to give him a blessing yesterday which was awesome because i love that guy and that was my first blessing! I don't know what we're doing today hopefully something fun but i know tomorrow we're helping dig a trench if it's not raining too hard haha.

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...
