This week has been long.

Monday we had dinner with the Summer family after we spent the day with the other missionaries at the park by the zoo. We had fun play kick ball and eating hotdogs and having brownies.

Tuesday we had District Meeting in the morning. After District Meeting Elder Licktey went on Splits with us. He came with me in our Area. Elder McGee went with Elder Helms in Rowling Hills ward. We had dinner with the Trulock Family. Then we had time to see the Baham Family.

Wednesday we had time to attend Correlation meeting with the WML Brother Cooper. Then we went over and mowed the Yee's lawn for them. Then we exchanged back and sister Mock dropped off food for us. This is the daughter in law of Sister Mock in Wellington and the daughter of Allan Brundage in Argoinia. It is funny to run into people you know.

Thursday we had time to help Sister Adams clean out the gutters at her house. Then we had lunch and then were able to see a few people before dinner with the Galloway family. Then we had a team up with Brother Hibbs in the Ward. We were able to try 3 families and all them were home and talked to us. It was a great night.

Friday we had Zone Training. This was a great meeting that the Zone Leaders taught us a lot. Then we were able to see lots of people that ended up not being home. We did some tracing today. Only had one good contact out of the whole street we knocked.  Then we had dinner with the Peterson Family. 

Saturday we had time to do service for the Fleetwood family. Then we had time to tract and visit some less actives. Then we had dinner with the Balzer Family out in Norwich. This is a fun family they have 12 kids. The oldest is about 27 and the youngest is few months. We had a great time talking to them. We talked about scouting and the church and missions. It was a great evening.

Sunday we had Church. It started at 7:30 with Ward Council then we had church at 9. We had lots of members show up but no investigators. But it was a great Fast and Testimony meeting. Then we had time to work and then we had dinner with the Genteman Family. He is the Bishop of the YSA ward so the Zone Leaders also had dinner with us. Elder Every one of our ZL got a ipad this week at the Mission Leadership Meeting. Elder Pasquale didn’t get one because he goes home with me. So next week I don’t get one when the rest of the mission does.

This week has been very hot. It has been in the 95s and with humidity. Lots of fun. Thanks for everything. Have a safe week. Love you all.

Love,

Elder Andrew Allen
