It's the end of summer and beginning of fall, but the heat and sun are still just as intense as ever. Hopefully in the next few weeks, things start to settle down. It's also taken me way too long to get this email out.
On
Wednesday after district council, we had to drive from Galveston to Sugar Land
to the mission office, for a new monitoring system in our car. That trip was an
hour and a half then getting back to our area was another hour, so that day
pretty much all we did was drive.
We
had a lesson Thursday with Julia, who took us to Tookie's burgers in Kemah, and
we were joined by our nonmember friend Ashley. It went really well and both are
on their way to being baptized soon. We went to the Roofners for dinner, who
are members in the Alvin ward, and then went to institute that evening.
Friday
we got to do our food truck service again, and deep cleaned our apartment
afterward to get ready for the new transfer. We taught our member friend Jesus,
then came back to our church building to play volleyball with the Clear Lake youth.
Saturday
morning was basketball yet again, this time at a park because the church was
being used without us knowing. It's kinda frustrating as missionaries not having
access to stake and ward calendars for any area we serve in. We stopped by and
said hi to some friends in the afternoon, and in the evening we played
volleyball and card games with our member and nonmember friends at the
institute activity.
Sunday
was extra special because of mission prep. The youth asked us a lot of really
good and somewhat difficult questions that we all had the opportunity to answer
and we each shared our personal testimony about missionary work.
We
had transfers on Monday, and our area didn't change. Our district members did,
however, so we really didn't do anything fun. FHE was a blast though since we
played volleyball.
This
week was really spiritually uplifting and a great way to end off the transfer.
