ELDER JOSEPH RICHARDSON - July 19, 2016 - Week 47: Building Steam

Hello everyone!

This week was great! We are working on building our area slowly but surely.

Last Tuesday, we had a good lesson with Dominique. She's a new person
we're working with. She has had all the lessons before, but can't get
baptized until she turns eighteen. We talked about the scriptures and
essentially just encouraged her to carry on learning. She has already
read the whole Book of Mormon once, and is rereading it now.

On Wednesday, we visited with Rhett again. He is interested, but we
can't seem to get him to come to church! Ugh! It's kind of frustrating
when people tell us they will come to church, but then flake out on
us.

Thursday was interviews with President Griffin. I had a good talk with
him and with Sister Griffin. Things are going well.

Friday, we had a Zone Meeting. We had a short break and got to play
Mafia for a little while, which was unusual, but fun. President
Griffin wants to make sure that everyone is actually enjoying their
missions, not just enduring them.

On Saturday, we visited Rhett again and helped him with his truck.
Elder Dill set it up because he loves working on cars and it gave us a
good chance to just visit with Rhett.

Sunday was long, with a bunch of meetings. We did help with a super
cool blessing at the end of one ward though, which was as cool.

Today we randomly went to Ross, a clothing store, and found a cool
Star Wars shirt for like $4. It's pretty fun.

That's about it for this week.

Keep Hauling That Water,
Elder Joseph Richardson

P.S. It's been super hot!

Believe it or not, this T-shirt design was pretty important

Elder Dennis cleaning our floor. The t-shirt on his head was not necessary, but was a bonus.

We took profile pictures at the church!
