Well then

Highlights:
- We got back in contact with an old investigator Oscar and we are teaching him again and he came to church. What a miracle. 
- We had an awesome YSA activity. It was a hog roast. We had 150 people there and 1 of our investigators came and brought his roommates whom we'll probably start teaching.
- I get to go to the Ft Collins temple this week. I'm looking forward to that.
- We were able to be guided to some cool people who are prepared and find them right before the Jehovah Wittneses did.

Monday, June 18th

Highlights:
- Sadly many of our appointments with people canceled or bailed out.
- But we found some people this week that are really prepared for the restored gospel and now we need to see if they'll accept it.
- We had zone conference and that was pretty good, aside from me conducting it and giving a departing testimony.
-  It was really hot last week, but it will be nice and cool this week. 😂

Take care!

Heat of the Moment

Highlights:
- Tori, Rony, and Megan got baptized in Peoria ward.
- We just started teaching a bunch of people here in our wards. So that's pretty exciting.
- It's been really hot here. It'll probably hit 100 pretty soon.


Later!

Naked Chicken Chalupa

Highlights:
- On Saturday we decided to have 100 gospel conversations with people. So we went all day and skipped dinner (nobody signed up that day) and we got to 100 at 8:50pm and then we went to taco bell and ate naked chicken chalupas AND a member came in and paid for us. It was a good day. We had lots of good conversations and got many potential investigators and people who said we can come by again.
- Carolyn backed out again and said she wasn't ready. Oh well, we'll keep working with her.
- We had a Missionary Leadership Council (MLC) and we got a preview of five missionaries from our mission touring the mission putting on a musical performance called "Meet the Elders". It's pretty funny and really awesome. It's like a pre-show for the Book of Mormon musical that is coming to Denver this month.

Answers to some questions I asked Elder Wheelwright:

We are out in the country a lot, And that truck is our mission vehicle, and it's pretty nice.  We're in a trio for the whole transfer, and the zone leader thing is whatever.  It's not much different from what I was doing to before.


Double time now go!

Tuesday,   May 29th


Highlights:

- So my fate ended up being Brighton Stake. I'm serving in the Ft. Lupton ward and Northridge YSA branch. Ft. Lupton covers a handful of tiny towns spread out in the country, and the ysa covers 2 stakes.
- My companions are Elder Draper (Riverside CA) and Elder Charpentier (Austin TX). A trio. It's been pretty fun.
- We should be having someone baptized this saturday if all goes well. Carolyn is facing a lot of opposition so pray for her. 
- Happy Memorial day!



Have a fantastic week!
