Everyone!!!
So the last week was a party, lots of people cried, not me, but it was great. But the main thing is the mission field, right? Getting there was kind of crazy. So, Wednesday morning we woke up at 3:15 AM, finished packing (my suit case weighted 70lbs at first, i moved stuff and got it down to 50lbs). Then we got on the bus at 6 AM, and then it was announced the Dallas airport was closed, so we got off the bus and spent the day at the temple. Basically till 9:30PM, when we went to bed. Then we got up at 1:30 AM for the 3 AM bus, we got on the first plane, I sat in between 2 Elders so I just went to sleep.
I got to Dallas and called my mom and talked for 30 minutes, so great! I got on the 45 min flight to Houston and sat next to a girl and started causal conversasion and worked in the gospel, first vison, restoration, and plan of salvation, I gave her a pass along Book of Mormon card and got her number, but she isn't in my area so I will have to call her in as a referral. I truly taught from the spirit too, it was awesome!
Then got to Houston, met the APs, the President &his wife, next day got my companion Elder Fultz (6' 3'' 205lbs, B ball and football player), eventually you will get a picture of him. A picture is probably on the blog. Went to the temple with new companion. Then went and taught a girl (DeSaundra, 8th grader). Friday was the first full day, different, but good, Saturday was the same, then Sunday was awesome! We had 2 baptisms, 3 lessons and dinner with the bishop, Bishop Machado, oh and we had dinner apts all the other nights too. We haven't gone tracking yet, we keep pretty busy with the people we have & my companion hates it, so we just haven't yet. Oh ya, you can write me at...( contact family for address) any questions for next week?
With Love Elder Bleazard! 5 days in and its great!
