Fort Mac Chapter 9

You would think I would know which chapter I'm on, but I still have to look every week. :) Well this has been quite a gong show of a week. First I'm writing this on Wednesday. The Library was actually closed for Monday and Tuesday, but We had Zone conference that same time, so we finally get to email Wednesday. It's going to be a long one this week. :) Monday Pday, then supper with the Diggles. Everything else fell through, so we did some tracting and potentials. Pretty good night. Tuesday We went to Gregoire in the morning, our lesson fell through as well. We came back and had lunch then went to Grandma Jean with Sis Olsen and Swainson. It was a really good visit. We asked her to pray specifically to know what we are saying is true, and she did. Most specific prayer ever. We then tracted and tried potentials. We then went on crazy splits. The Zone leaders came up and so we went on 6 way splits for two nights. Tuesday night wasn't bad. We all met at the McDonalds downtown. I was picked up by Bro Swainson. We had supper at their home and then we went and visited the Simpsons then Bud. It was a good night. It was pretty cool. It was Sis Simpson's birthday and they were going to go out to dinner, but they waiting until after we came. :) Wednesday We tried some potentials. Went to lunch with everyone. We then did mormon.org time. Tried more potentials. This night I went with Bro Rivers. Wednesday night was a GONG SHOW TO THE MAX! All of our appointments fell through. We did get to go to Thompson's which was good. Everyone's appointments fell through that night. It was crazy. Not doing that again.  Thursday We had a District Brunch, since the Zone Leaders were heading back. Most of the reason was Elder Stewart is going home. We then had a lesson with Malinda with Bro Sousa. It was great. We then went to the church and played a bit of dodgeball and then had District Meeting. We then had supper at the Fitzner's. We then had a lesson with Diana with Bro Fitzner. It was incredible. We taught her the history timeline of the Bible and the Book of Mormon. We also talked about the importance of Jesus Christ. It was incredible.  Friday We dropped off a Chinese Book of Mormon to Diana. We then did Weekly Planning and then lunch. We tried by some potentials. We picked up supper from Sis O'Bray. She was trying soo hard to have us over, but numbers couldn't work. We had supper and then went to LA Olsen's. It was interesting. We went over and were visiting. At the end his parents came. They are Fundamentalists. Interesting people. :) Shared a scripture on prophets and following the prophets. :) Made his dad laugh a little. :) Be bold. Saturday We were invited by a lady, we tracted into, to attend the 7th Day Adventist Church. It was pretty interesting. They are very friendly and welcoming. Many of them said that they might come to our church. The other elders went the last week. :) It was fun. We then went and had a lesson with Jeet. We acutally got to sit down with him. It went pretty great. We then went to Gabriel's Baptism. It was incredible. We then had supper with Simpson's.  Sunday We had ward council and then church. We had some lessons that all fell through again. We had supper at Macpherson's. It was fun. We then tried more potentials since the rest of the lessons fell through.  Monday We did what we needed to and drove to Edmonton. Elder Hentunen and I stopped by some families in Londonderry. We stayed the night at the mission home. Tuesday We had Interviews and then Zone Conference. We then went to the temple. It was great. I hadn't been in 9 months. We then went Christmas shopping. I'm all done. :) Then stayed another night at the mission home. This time with St. Paul elders.  Well that was my week plus some. :) Gong show, but what else can you do. :) Love,  Elder Colin O'Neill
