Week 65 (1/20/2020) Yoda


See, when your main prozelyting area is closed, and you have to be in your apartment doing office work half the time, and you have a 1000 piece Yoda puzzle, there is only one thing to do. At one point our whole floor was converted into Yoda puzzle solving lab. Now he is framed on our wall, and we talk to him like he is another person living here. He was a tough puzzle, for sure. 

In other news, some of our work is finally picking up, people are getting back in town for the summer. Someone we have been trying to contact all transfer finally got back in touch with us, so we should be meeting with him this week. 

Wednesday we had our zone conference, and we just focused on faith in Jesus Christ, which I love! I wish everyone was just more focused on the Savior! It was good to spend that time just talking about Him. 

Oh, Monday we had fhe with the YSA, Elder Carraway and I got to teach the lesson, so we talked about the tree of life...which was also the subject of institute...and Sunday school, and we did come follow me with some other YSA. I feel like I got Lehi’s vision on lockdown at this point. 

Skipping around a little, church was wild. President Harris, the Orange stake president, was there to teach Sunday school. And then President Hewlett showed up. And the President Ratcliff of the Beaumont stake. The stand was crazy, we had all these keys jangling around up there. It made Sunday School really good, though, with all of them sharing insights. 

Let’s see here...we did blitzes with two of our companionships, a comp study with another one...had a meeting with President Hewlett and President Ratcliff about missionary work in the stake...

Oh, funny story from branch council. None of the YSA leadership showed up, so the branch presidency just had two of the YSA that were there sit in. One of them it was her first week, the other one was our investigator, and they were both honorary members of the branch council for the day. Pretty funny!

Well, Lamar is supposed to open up here Tuesday, so we are pumped to get crackalakin on campus. 

Love y'all, take care!

Elder DeFord
