This week was awesome! I ended up doing a lot of work in the Corner Brook area while we were on exchanges. I got my very first potential investigator while knocking there this week! It was awesome. I'm a little bummed that I don't get to see it all the way, but it still felt good.
We left Corner Brook Wednesday afternoon and were driving the rest of that day. Since my companions went to Nova Scotia for a Zone Leader Conference, they picked up a new car for some Elders on the other side of the island and drove it back to Newfoundland via the ferry. We had to drive about 6-hours to the Bay Roberts area, passing through our area while doing so to exchange cars, and then we had to drive 4 more hours back home. That was a really long day, but I got to see a TON of Newfoundland...and it's amazing. There are so many lakes up here. We passed about 20 of them while driving.
Once we got back to our area, we went contacting and we got another potential investigator! He told us to come back again sometime this week so hopefully we can start teaching him. We also received a referral from one of the members here. His name is Zhivago (pronounced Shervago..???) and we contacted him and invited him to come to conference on Sunday. We were kinda bummed because he told us that he'd think about it and we assumed that was just a polite way of saying no. But he actually showed up and watched with us! We were really excited. We also invited him to family home evening this Monday, which is just playing games at the church, and he accepted! So hopefully we can finally start teaching people this week.
Well, I hope you are all doing great. I miss you all a lot. Heavenly Father loves you very much.
Here a some pics from the week...
[Cathy Borden is a member and she really likes pills. She just really
likes taking pills. So we basically police her pill consumption. She
knows when she's being bad, so whenever we ask her for her pills she gives
them to us. We keep all of her pills in this bag - haha.]

[Eating Cucumbers for snacks during Conference haha!]
[Contract we all signed because we were going to Mcdonalds too much. The bottom print is too small to read but it basically states that if we go to Mcdonalds, the next day we can only eat a head of lettuce and water. ]
[Twewve! Nuff Said!]
Love you all. Have a great week!!!
