Week 72: Thanksgiving!

This Thanksgiving was really fun. That morning we played football with the two wards here in Lawton. We had about 30 people show up and we had to sub out a lot of people but I got lucky and didn't have to sub out at all. That day we had an interesting meal. We had the turkey and all the regular things with it but with the bonus, we had fried chicken and other southern dishes. It was a fun experience. 

We did a lot of finding this week and found 3 really solid people who we set up lessons with. Johnathan, Cindy, and Julius. Julius was able to make it to church because his friend was speaking in sacrament meeting. We had two people ask if he was going to make it next week and he was so pumped to come back next week. We are working with him. 

Happy Thanksgiving!

“I am convinced that missionary work is not easy because salvation is not a cheap experience. Salvation never was easy. We are the Church of Jesus Christ, this is the truth, and He is our Great Eternal Head. How could we ever believe it was going to be easy for us when it was never, ever easy for Him?”
