This week seemed liked it just kept dragging on! Happy Valentine's Day!❤ Hope it's a good one for y'all!
This week on Monday we had some P-day so everyone in the Palmyra North Zone came to the Palmyra building and we played a games and hung out and had a good time! It was so much fun! Then we had a couple
appointments that night and one was with the referral that we received on Saturday! We had set up a time at 8:30 to visit him! Well we got there and he said he had read all of 1st Nephi and 2nd Nephi! And he is big into geanology, and asked us question about that. We answered to the best of our ability and began to teach the restoration! We got to the principle of Jesus Christ's earthly ministry and the man stands up and says it's my bed time... he booted us out of his house! We asked if we could come back and he said no. Bit he said he would come
to church... it was so weird!
Tuesday we had interviews with President Evans! It was awesome. I told him about my struggles this transfer and he gave me some really good tips to read out of preach my gospel! It's helped a lot. We had another FaceTime lesson with lexy and hailey! They reward the Book of Mormon and now they are progressing! So awesome! And we ended the night by tracting an area in victor that's on the golf course, very very rich. No listened to us. Haha
Wednesday we had service at saints place again! Love going there! It's so much fun! All of our deliveries were in the 4th floor of the apartment buildings tho.., that stunk but it was a good work out! After studies we went out to go tract a little bit before dinner. One guy thought he could scare us by smacking his window as hard as could
right in front of us, it worked. Haha but he ended up inviting us back! Then we ended the night with learning more about family history at the center at our church building.
Thursday we had zone meeting in palmyra! It was awesome! The trainings were on effective scripture study and praying with faith. It was super spiritual and awesome specially since we were like 100 yards away from the sacred grove. So awesome. #blessed. We tracted afterwards and we knocked on this door and we didn't even get to say anything and this guy say "I'm all set, I'm straight." Haha I couldn't stop laughing for some reason, it was super weird. I wanted to open his door and tell I was to. Haha then we played basketball with a bunch of nonmembers at
the church building! It was a lot of fun!
Friday is the weekly planning day! Elder Griener kinda just took over and wouldn't listen to what I wanted to do or what I thought we should teach an investigator so I just laid in the floor. Haha it's been tough. Real tough. We blitzed our area cause we have no investigators so Elder Marks and Peterson came and Elder Peterson and I stayed in Fairport and tracted some streets and Griener and Marks went to Victor to tract down there! We found 3 new investigators that day! Hopefully we can make something work out of all this! We have been working really hard. And it's hard to stay motivated because our area Book isn't reflecting it. It's defiantly a learning curve. It's been fun.
Saturday morning we did service at the library and we tried calling members to set up appointments, no one likes us it seems like cause no one will answer our phone calls! Haha it's weird. But we got a couple set up and then we went and tracted until dinner. After dinner we taught the whiteheads and tried to get in contact with some potentials but didn't have much luck. Sunday was a great Sabbath Day! That referral that told us he would come... he came! It was really good to see him there. We got him introduced to all the family history people in our ward! And got him all set up with that. Hopefully we can get the ball rolling with him. He's a great guy! His name is David! We had dinner with Bishop Maxwell and his family! Then had finding for the rest of the night. I think we've called almost every potential in our area book. Haha and we tried to get in contact with some less actives but didn't have any luck again. It was an interesting day.
Well I love you all! I'm so grateful for all the support I get from each of you. I hope you all have a wonderful week! And I know this church is true! I've realized that I'm a true guardian of the grove, I'm serving 15 minutes away from were the church was restored. It is truly an amazing feeling. I love it. Yes it's hard, yes it's worth it. I wouldn't trade any of the experiences I've had for anything. I love being a representative of my savior, and brother Jesus Christ. Happy Valentine's once again!
Love,
Elder Judy
