Slow Week

Man this week was a polar opposite of last week! 
Immigration is literally out and knocking doors, so I mean literally no one is answering! It really sucks. We have knocked so many doors this week, my knuckles literally have a callus on them now. 

We had district meeting this week and that was pretty good! The STL's here are driving me nuts. They try to be our moms, and then they suggested that we use members in our own areas to use for member splits, then they use the members in our own area so we cant use them... I'm really irritated with them to say it nicely. 

We went on exchanges and I got to meet this new investigator named Jeremy, he was kind of nervous talking to us and explained that he's suspended and that's why hes not at school and then he just went on this rant about him getting jumped about 30 minutes right before that. So we taught him the restoration and I know the spirit was there very strongly and I know he could feel it. Then his friends showed up and were going to go with him to hit some guys, but we taught them a little bit too, and over all I'm just glad to be able to teach him a lesson and feel the spirit before we left.
 
Other than that we taught another lesson to Nashin about the plan of salvation. We were talking to him and telling him how Satan had a plan also where we would have no agency and so that is why he was cast out. Then he was saying his religion was saying it was a bad thing that Adam and Eve were tempted, because if they didn't, they would be able to just live life and (have kids?) we would all be perfect and have no sense of right or wrong... and then I just told him that sounds a lot like Satan's plan right? and it just clicked for him, and he just went.."ohhhh yeahhh" and he was just like I want to know more about this.. is this in the book of Mormon? we told him yes, all these questions you have we have answered using the book of Mormon. so it was perfect! 

But man, other besides that we have had absolutely zero luck finding new people and teaching! and I'm not exaggerating either. But this week is looking pretty awesome! so i will fill you guys in on more next Monday! 
the sunset we had here which was awesome, but nothing beats
a Utah sunset

Ryan said he mailed us something before Christmas, but after a couple of weeks we still hadn't seen anything. Finally this came in the mail...

 I would've been so sad if his tag was lost in the mail!
We love looking at it everyday!
