There's a severe thunderstorm warning right now so the
weather outside is bonkers right now. I'll be fine though.
Haven't heard anything about tornadoes. This one night back
when I was in Grand Island, there was like 8 funnel clouds
and some touched down in a town called York that I've
actually been to quite a bit. They were out in the country
so no serious damage so that's good.
But anyways things are
going good here. Well it's always tough reopening an area
but hopefully we can get some stuff done. We don't really
have any solid investigators but this one former
investigator talked to us for a bit and invited us back some
this week so hopefully that works out. My companion is from
BC, Canada and is 28 years old. And is super awkward. So
needless to say I do most of the talking. And even though
he's been out 21 months I do most of the coordinating as
well. So yeah I wouldn't be surprised if President Weston
has plans for me to train soon.
President Weston is awesome
by the way. He hates tracting haha. Hates it. Which I won't
complain about at all. He a pretty funny guy as well.
Someone was talking about maybe extending their mission and
he said "Extending? I wouldn't want to extend even for 2
months." But yeah he's really in tune with the Spirit and
pretty awesome and says funny stuff.
I got to go to the
temple this past week on Friday. It was good. The temple is
super small it was weird. But it was a good experience.
President Weston actually told me in Celestial room to "Hang in
there" cause yeah I would be lying if I said that Mendel was
my favorite companion. But don't worry I'm hanging in there.
I hope things pick up here soon. I'm sure they will. We have
a good ward and bishop. Too bad a lot of the area is
military housing which we can't proselyte in.
And with my
reading I'm on chapter 18 I think of 3 Nephi so I'm getting
there.
Hopefully by next week we'll have some investigators
to talk about.
Well anyways I love you guys! I sent Austin a
letter so I hope he got it. Well have a great week
everybody! I could go for some couch rest right now and some
T.V. Whatever it'll still be there in 1.5 years.
Love you
guys!
Love,
Elder Ballif
