Hi mom!
I forgot my camera and
so I will send a pic from our hike today. I’ve been doing very well, this week
was an ok week. It could've been better but it was just ok. Here’s the week.
TUESDAY- today was the
first day in our new apartment. We got
up and went to district meeting and afterwards we went to chick fil a where we
got our food paid for!! There were some people from the district leader’s area
who were there and she paid for our food. Then we went to interviews with President
Sainsbury. It went well. Just told him that it’s been great so far. I told him it was a lot better than last
transfer. Then we left and went to the zls apartment and they changed and then
they took us back to our apartment and then we just moved some stuff into the
new apartment and then we went on splits. I went with Brandon Lee. He’s
preparing to go on a mission and he’s going out with us a lot more. So we went to see this guy William and we had
a great lesson about the Plan of Salvation and Restoration. Then we tried to go
follow up with some people but they weren't there. So we came back and moved
the rest of our stuff over. That was the day
WEDNESDAY- Today we got
up this morning and did personal and comp study and then we went and played basketball
with our investigator Chris. It was fun
and then we went and moved a little more of our stuff over and then we went and
helped this new investigator Joe with a fence he was working on. It was pretty
small so no big deal. Then we taught him the restoration and he said we could
come back so we are now seeing him. Then we went home and took showers and then
did comp study and then we went and taught this guy Cameron and it was pretty
quick because we had a dinner appointment in 15 min. We rode back home and went to basically the
best dinner I’ve had. It was with Brother Messervy and Sister Rabuck. They told us stories about their life, such
as brother Messervy met Thomas S Monson on his mission. It was a long story but let’s just say he
taught his sister. It was just awesome. They gave us some food also to take
home. After the appointment we went and had Brandon Lee pick us up and go over
to basketball that night. We had an investigator come and it was so fun. I
think I scored 27 points in the game. (Not to brag) then we went home for the
night.
THURSDAY- Today was a
good day. In the morning we did weekly
planning and then we went out at 4 because planning took a long time. We tried
to see some people but they weren’t home, but we scheduled 2 church tours for
Saturday so we were pumped about that. Then we went over to the Coxs for dinner
and they made sloppy joes and then we went and saw Sister Hollander and
apparently I might be related to her, lol.
Then we went over to Arlene Morgans and talked with her for a bit. Then
we walked back and were picked up by the Sparkman elders and they gave us their
car for a dr appointment up in Birmingham for Elder Ratigan. Then we came home for the night.
FRIDAY- Today we started
our journey up to Hoover and we had the appointment and then we went to Subway
to meet up with the APs and then we went to the mall for a bit. We went to the mission office to grab a white
handbook for Elder Ratigan and then we started our way back home. It took us 2 hours to get home. We picked up Sparkman and then we went home
and said goodbye to them and then we went and saw Eric and William and they’re
doing great right now. Then we talked to some people and then we went home and
started the area book plus giving referrals to people. That was the day.
SATURDAY- Today was a
busy day. We went and helped Carolina
Coats move out of her house. We filled up a pod with her furniture and stuff. We
didn’t get everything in and so she ordered another pod and its coming Monday. So we left and went back to the apartment and
then we went and did personal study and comp study and then we went with Seth
over to the church and we waited for the 2 investigators to get here to give
them a tour. 1 only showed up. It was William and we gave him the tour and
testified about things and then we invited him to go to a baptism tonight that
the zls were doing and he said yes. So we went to the baptism and after he said
he really liked it. He’s just awesome. Then we went home and biked in the rain
and saw one guy and then we biked home and we were soaked.
SUNDAY- Today was a slow
kinda day. We went and met up with our
ward mission leader and then we had a great ward council meeting. We are doing this thing in our ward called
the 40 day fast where the members select a day to fast for missionary work and
its going well!! Then we went on with church, it was so long. Then after church
we went home and had lunch/dinner and then we went and saw Joe on his way out
the door and then we tried to see Nick.
He wasn’t home so we tried to follow up/drop people and we went and saw
2 people that we dropped. The first guy is like I’m tired don’t come back and
the 2nd guy was just drunk and he was just not interested at all. I got so
pissed with him when he turned to me and I was silent because of how mad I was
and he’s like "Why aren’t you talking? Is it because you have to do this?'
and I told him, No, I’m out here because there’s a God that loves me. And that
there is a devil. Then we left. I was just mad at him because he swore at us the
whole time. Then we went home.
Monday- we went on a
zone hike this morning and then we came here. We don’t really have anything
tonight. There’s a big storm tonight.
No I am not sad that I
didn’t get to go to Ariana Grande. Lol I’d rather go to a George Strait
concert. Yeah I am liking
Huntsville better, it’s like Utah here just without the mountains. Elder Ratigan has been out for 15 months and
he says it feels weird to say that. He goes home in January of 2018. My time here is going by fast. I was talking with elder Fotu today and he
can’t believe it either. It’s good and sad at the same time.
We are planning on
having 2 investigators come with us to church and watch conference.
When I come back we are
going camping alright? Lol.
I feel nervous and
excited about talking to you on Mother’s Day but I’m ready to talk to yall.
Well mom I better go. I
hope you have a great week and I will text sister root about transfers. We are
most likely staying but who knows.
LOVE YOU FOREVER AND
EVER!!!!
Elder Webb
