so a born again christian, a jehovas witness, a jew and two missionaries all run into eachother. this may seem like the start of a joke, but it honestly we tracted into all of them in the past four days ive gotten to this area. we're here back in the city of idaho falls and the work here is straight up struggling. this stake has had a past of missionaries who didnt do nothing to help further the work but now, we have the members' trust back and things coming along slowly but surely. anyways, we have 13 apartment complex's, where most of work is and we been tracting some of them this past week. we are having very little success but we ran into a less active lady the other night who wanted us to come back so we are seeing her tonight. this week has just been super crazy.
my new companion is elder olsen. he's been out for 7 months and is from mona, utah. he was raised on a sheep farm and was a sheep rancher before the mission.
we gave talks yesterday in one of our wards and as we came into the church building, we had a non member who was walking around so we decided to talk to him. i guess that's not what he wanted so he started running and left and just kept on running and he never stopped. that was kinda weird. this area is something different but the members here are willing to work and help the work progress.
my companion and I were able to go back to rigby and see two investigators we were working with get baptized. it was good day.
i wish i could tell you everything that happened here in the last couple day but we dont' have much time left here. thanks for all you do! the church is true and and god love us all! y'all have a good week.
