Fort Mac Chapter 6

Hello to Family, Garrett, me, My, Regan, Regan This week was quite a fun week. I forgot my planner again. New transfer left my old planner in the apartment. :) Monday P-day. Didn't do anything too out of the ordinary. We got everything done, so we played some uno for a bit till we had to leave. We had supper with Swainson's. It was an incredible night. Had a very good conversation with them. Don't remember what we did the rest of the night either. Tuesday We had a lesson with Nahia in the morning. It went really well. Her father in Edmonton was sick so she was down there last week. She is still just as interested. It was a good lesson. We then went and had stopped by Grandma Jean. We talked with her for a bit. she called the night before and told us that she was advised to stay away from the Mormons and so we didn't need to come by. Well we wanted to understand what was going on. We had a good conversation with her. We are going back next week. I think we had supper with Rusnell's that night. We had a small snow ball fight after. :) We then went to LA Olsen's. It was a good time there. Wednesday We tried some people in the morning downtown. Sometime in the afternoon we went out to the Kidd's and helped them around for a bit. The other Elder's came for supper as well. We then went and tracted in Gregoire Lake Estates. Found a couple of potentials. It was pretty good. It started snowing while we were out there. Tracting in a Winter Wonderland :) Thursday We had District Meeting and then went for lunch. Don't' really remember what we did that day. Friday We did Weekly planning and then we went to Gregoire to try some potentials and tract. It was interesting being Halloween. We were told many times, "this really isn't the day to be doing this". What else were we suppossed to do? We had supper with Diggles and then went home. We had to be in by 6 if we didn't have any appointments. We played some card games. I tried to teach Elder Barber Crib, but that failed. We mostly played Speed. Saturday We had a lot of lessons set up that cancelled. We tried some potentials downtown and tracted. We tracted into one guy that we debated with for a good little while on his door. Why do people enjoy telling us so much about what we do and what we believe? It's a little annoying. Just a bit. :P We then had lunch. We had a lesson with Dwayne, but he had to reschedule. We then went and met Sis Eric's friend March. He was meeting with the missionaries a few years ago, but lost contact with everyone when he lost his job. He is struggling a lot. We met him and he is going to come to church. We were suppossed to have a lesson with Eric. Well that didn't really happen. When we got there no one answered, but he was walking up the street. He awkwardly let us in. We were half teaching lesson one. His dad came in and we tried to include him in the conversation. Well then Eric took off and took a shower. His Dad wasn't interested so we left. We went up to Thickwood and we got our Flu Shots. We then tried potentials. We were going to have a lesson with Jeet, so we stopped by Tiffany. Well her husband answered and said she wasn't home. Elder Barber saw her in the window as we were walking away. Don't think we are teaching Tiffany anymore. Jeet then wasn't home. Aaron met us there and still had some time, so we tried potentials. We went and saw Tenicia. She was home and we had a super good lesson with her. I can't even describe how much she respects what we do. We made her cry a couple of times. It was a great lesson. We then went home and had supper then tried by some more people. Sunday It was an incredible day. We had church. We had Nahia and March at Church. It was incredible. Testimony meeting was interesting. Some interesting Testimonies. The rest of church was great. After we went to Gregoire. We were supposed to have a lesson with Joe, but his family was sick. We then went to Al Rich. He was home and we had a great conversation. We were almost late to coordination. We then had supper with Harper's. We then stopped by Tina. She was home. We had a great conversation with her and then we were late to the Fireside. It was incredible. It was about Member missionary work with the Stewarts and Diggles sharing their story. It was amazing. Well that was my week. Tons of miracles. Hopefully this week will be the same. :) Love, Elder Colin O'Neill
