4th transfer 3rd week


Everyone,

This week was okay.  Monday we were having dinner, and an investigator called and asked us to come over.  So we went to his appartment which is in our same complex, and taught him about prayer.  We prayed for his friends grandma, who was sick.

Tuesday we did weekly planning where we talked about everyone we teach and what each person needs to do or hear to progress. We did service for 6 hours for an investigator whos husband died a few months ago.  She needed alot of help with things around the house.  She also is a foster mother, so she has 4 kids that make a mess, but we are teaching all of them and they are doing great.  

Wednesday we did service in the morning for a member then went to a donut shop for breakfast.  Afterwards we took care of some things and taught a few people.  Thursday we went to the college and got on computers and did this thing we do everyweek called mormon.org where we go and get more familiar with mormon.org and lds.org so we can share things from it to investigators and members.  Later we had a busy day teaching 4 other lessons.  It was a good day. 

 Friday, like almost every friday, we had district meeting, then district lunch.  We went to a taco shop.   I got dared to drink some hot salsa and did it!  Then we picked up this wonderful member named Karl Flynn, took him to Melissas, then to Laurel Lund and taught 2 powerful lessons. It was really cool. Then had dinner at this wing place. Saturday we stopped by some other places before basketball at 3pm, where we and the other spring branch missionaries meet and play basketball with all the investigators we can bring.  Last week there were 2 boys, this week 3.  Then just tried by some people, got nothing, dropped by one man.  Yesterday we had church.  Tommy came and Chuck, two of our investigators.  Then we had our lunch break and took a short break, then taught until dinner at 4 30.  We taught two more lessons after dinner, it was good.  Yep thats about my week.  oh and we play risk, the board game, when we have free time, and everyone teams up on me and kills me, how mean right!

Anyway, here are some random pics!
Love you all!  Hope to hear from you!

3rd transfer, 6th week


A letter my mom wrote and Aaron responded.

Howdy Elder Bleazard,
Howdy! And no, I hardly ever hear howdy.
How is the work going this week?
Good, people are getting more solid and all.
Are you still teaching the same people or did you find some different people to teach? 
Not a whole lot of new people, we got 4 new investigators, but it was mostly people that were just potentials that finally progressed to the point where they keep commitments and honestly want to learn.  This guy we found in our complex is cool.
We ran into a guy on our street, he said he lived in our appartments at number 324, and so a few days later we stopped by to find a different man who had never heard of the Frankie we had ran into.  This man was moving something so we helped him and we prayed with him, then we came back talked, taught him the restoration, he is cool and read parts of the BOM too!
Did you get the package?
Yep!  Thank you!


I know you are busy with your life and your things!  I  am so
glad you have sisters who love you and cousins that sent
letters this past week.  (I actually wrote several if you get your
mail.)
I did! Thank you! Britt sent a cool cd, Alex Boye, "Be still my soul" I like it!t.
What have your learned about this week? 
I like the spirit alot, it changes hearts and helps people aton!

Are you hating the humidity and the heat together?
Nah, it's not to bad, people talked it up, it will get worst.

Your district is really small in the pictures.  Is it small again?
Again? It has always been 3 companionships, but the presidents daughter just joined the sisters for a mini mission, so we have 7 right now, but it has always been 6, in the field at least.
How many districts in a zone?
3, so about 20 people.
What is your p-day schedule today?
6am laundry, 6-6 40am push ups (100)
On your birthday, Dad said we are no longer parents of a teenager.
Isn't growing up great! 
No, I wish I was still a kid, things were much simpler and easy to enjoy simple things.
I am glad you are enjoying the mission and love serving where you
are called.
Me too!  some people hate it, you have to love it!
Know that you are loved and thought of daily.
oh thank you!
