My week was awesome. We did a lot of fun stuff plus the temple trip was soo cool!!!!! I LOVED THE PACKAGE YOU GAVE ME, HOLY COW A GOBERT JERSEY!!!!!!
We went over to the Roots for dinner, you probably got a pic. If you did can you send it to me? Here’s the week.
MONDAY- After we left the church we went and played tennis for 2 hours, it was very fun although we are terrible at it. We went home after that to get dressed and go to our dinner appointment at chick fil a. Then after that we went to see the Albrittons and they were home but said it was too late to talk so we left and tried to go see this other guy we met but he said it was too late also. So we were on our way back and we stopped and talked to this lady walking and she talked with us and she knew a member from a long time ago. She didn’t want to hear a message but she liked that we talked with her, then that was the night.
TUESDAY- This morning we went out with a member of the ward Brandon. He’s going on a mission soon and he’s wanting to come out with us more. So we went and saw this investigator Myli and we were going to teach the restoration to her but she had alot of questions about the church. Like why don’t we use the bible and why do yall use the book of Mormon so much? We answered her questions and then we left after an hour and Brandon's like, is that how they all are? Lol. We told him that she just wanted answers to her questions. Then we went to sister Hearnes and asked her if she could tailor my pants and she did. I also ripped a pair and she sowed those up as well. Then after that he dropped us off at our apartment and then we met this guy Donald. He offered us to drive his 2016 mustang! We sadly had to decline that offer. Then we went in and taught him a little and then we went to Josh and Hailey Hearnes to have dinner and then we went on splits. I went with Brother Smithson and we went and taught William. I went in and I started teaching him about the first chapter of the Book of Mormon and then committed him to read it then we went home for the night.
WEDNESDAY- We got up and started getting ready for the temple and then the zls came and got us and we started the 2 hour drive up there. We had zone conference first and then we went to the temple. It was very nice, loved it as always. We met a member of ours in the celestial room. We talked with him for a bit and then he was about to leave then he shook Elder Ratigans hand and then he came up to my ear and said, "Elder Webb I’m so glad to see you in here. You are a great representative of Jesus Christ, I can see your light shine within you and you are a great example of an instrument to our Heavenly Father. I love you and you are the best missionary out there” then he left. I almost shed a tear there. I’ve never had that happen since the mtc. Then we left the temple and we took pics outside and then we started our 2 hour ride back to Weatherly. When we were dropped off, we had dinner and then we went to see a less active and then we went to the church and played basketball with some investigators and members, then we went home.
THURSDAY- we woke up and did studies and then we decided to do weekly planning outside and we had a great time out there and then we went to this guy Eric Genders house and talked with him about past missionaries and we talked with him for a while. Then we went and got lunch and then we went home and finished weekly planning and that lasted till about 5. We had dinner and then we went with brother Swenson to see this person Leah Johnston and they were doing a Passover dinner and then we went home. A Passover dinner is when they reenact the last supper that Jesus had. It was cool.
FRIDAY- Today was an ok day, we had appointments fall through. I got the package that my mom sent me and boy oh boy it had some cool stuff!! Then we went and saw this guy Rodney Biggs and then we went to try to see this guy Christian but he wasn’t there but his dad was and we taught him a bit about the restoration. Then we went over to this place called green cove trailers and we talked to this Mexican dude and he liked our message but he lives in Huntsville. Then we were almost to the home of the person we were going to see and this guy came out and said " no soliciting here!!!!” And we told him we aren’t solicitors and then he’s like yes you are you guys leave! That includes your religion! Then we kept telling this guy and then we started walking off and I was shaking my head and laughing and he’s like don’t give me that eye boy! And he was talking to elder Ratigan and then we left. Boy were we angry with him. Then we went home for dinner and then we went over to the Shellmans home (less active) and they let us play their flutes and then we went home for the day. Ugh people.
SATURDAY- Today was a good day. We did studies in the morning and then we went and helped Brother Messervy move a table out of his house and into a new one and then take that table and bring it to his home. Then we went to this place called Moes, it was a Mexican place and I got the nachos and boy oh boy were they good! Then he took us home and we got dressed and we went with Seth to try to see some people. We met this guy from Ghana and he was very cool. He wanted to meet with us on Monday and then we left and Seth took us home and then we went and tried to see this guy Don but his son was there and he was interested and then we went to see this person Mandy and when we were talking she made this face as if the neighbor hit his dog or something like that. After the lesson she asked us has anything weird happened to yall on your mission so far. We asked why and she looked at me and said "when Elder Webb was talking over his shoulder there was this like white glow in the shape of like a ball or a face. I was shocked but I thought that was so cool!! Then we left and did some store contacting and then we went home. Cool day!
SUNDAY- Today was a long day. We went to the church and had coordination meeting and then sat for 2 hours for sacrament meeting to begin. Elder Ratigans allergies were acting up and so it was a long morning for him. Then sacrament meeting started and then after church we went home and went to the Roots for dinner and we colored eggs there and had some ham and potatoes and then they took us home. We went over to the Shellmans because they made us some rolls and then we talked with them for a bit then we went home.
MONDAY- we woke up and cleaned and then we came to the church. Don’t know what we will do the rest of the day. We are seeing somebody at 6 and then someone at 730.
We have one set of sisters in our zone. It’s sad. Lol.
Hey can dad send more of those lacrosse pins? I’m giving them to my comps and people in every ward who helped out the most.
OH YA we are still on the bikes a lot. I’ve gotten used to it though. It’s getting hot here.
My one picture is a van. Two people could sit in the front and I chose to sit with the table. Lol. 2nd pic the Tennessee river!
I guess church scared the family of 10 off. She sent us a text and said that she didn’t want any more lessons. We are going to go talk with her tonight.
Same old stuff for zone conference, although I had a lot of people including president and sister Sainsbury tell me I’ve lost a lot of weight and I look healthier. Elder Redd and I talked and he’s a pretty cool guy. He’s comps with Elder Porter (met him back when I was in Wetumpka).
I like the pics of yall!! I started laughing when I saw the pics of Raymond and grandpa! What’s with the one leg up for ash in one of the pics? She looks like a city girl!!! Ugh one of those. Lol. Keep her mellow, lol! It makes me miss home but I’m sticking it out here. 14 more months, 3 more till the year mark!!! The rice krispies were still soft and they were good.
Well we are just about to leave, love you forever mom!!!!!!!!!
Elder Webb
