This week was really good! We had quite a few lessons to go too. We had Tim who really is working on how to know that God is there for him. We are working with a recent convert family and we are trying to teach their son Donovan Watkins. They are really fun and love having us over and listen. We also taught a part member family who are so awesome! It is the Law family and they came to church for the first time in 6 years!
Cushing is really good. We have a few investigators like Tim Garrett, Thomas Brown, Mike Pierce, Shirley Maxwell, Sammy Law, and the Karl family. Those are the main people that we are teaching and they are so cool. They are hard to teach because they are so set in their ideas. Some are not necessarily their religious ways but ways of thinking so we are trying to convey a message in a way that logically makes sense to them. I love it because my studies have been so great but conveying the important information is harder.
We have a lot of appointments scheduled for this week with the people we found and a lot of other new people too. Cushing is really moving and I love it here.
It seems like everyone likes to ride their lawn mower around the streets instead of the car though. One day I counted and there were 6 lawn mowers all throughout the day just driving down the road.
P-days in rural Oklahoma are hard. There isn't a lot to do. We are planning on going fishing at some point out here. We have a few people that have stocked ponds so we may do that someday. I haven't thought of any ideas either.
I love being a missionary.
