March 22rd
P day was an awesome day- we helped out at the food bank again, we did a service project and many people where shocked to see us in regular clothes 😆 but it was awesome, lots of member bonding time and just fun fo work with everyone. after the services we went over to the church for a little and it was chill there, we called home and I was on the computer writing a talk I was asked to give on Sunday.
After that we headed to Oklahoma City and got to go to the okc temple for the first time, it was so awesome and my heart was filled with the sprit! It was a 2 hour drive and makes me miss all the temples in Utah but that's ok it was worth the drive! after the temple we got dinner at a place called Dave's chicken super yummy and then headed home.
March 23th
Sigma day today- to start it all off there was some rebar on the side of the road that elder Siddoway ran into accidentally and it completely blew the sidewall of our tire so we had a flat and had to change that thing on the side of the road but we got it done fast. we then drove to a tire shop and left the car there since we had service at the food bank again. it was a chill day stocking lots of shelves getting ready for the next day. after that we had just a day of walking and knocking on referrals doors and checking in on members of the ward. over all, a good day
March 24th
Started the day off with District council and it was a good one and surprise! AP Huffaker and AP Beuler came to our district council and it was good to see them! they were doing an exchange with one of the other elders. after that we left and had a good lesson with our friend Kendra. She was super sigma and the lesson went well. Hopefully we will be able to extend a baptismal invite to her next time and then we did a lot of member work today and just walked around in the pouring rain which was fun.
March 25th chill day
We had a lady named Lori reach out to us and she had been taught by missionaries in the past but she was in a bad relationship with someone and just a was in a deep hole and could not mentally handle everything at that time. she reached out and said she was ready to start taking lessons which was awesome! she is so chill. after that we taught a new friend named John who was super chill to talk to. He sadly was not at church this week but hopefully he comes next time but that's all for Saturday.
March 26
Ok ok now the day we have all been waiting for- transfer news- but before that I’ve got to talk about the day.
To start woke up and had church at Fort Sill Army post like always, super awesome to talk to all the soldiers and get to know them! then after interviewing a soldier for baptism we headed over to the AIT side and had our church service there. turns out most soldiers in AIT served church missions which was super cool to learn and after that we went to our family church ward and there me and elder Siddoway both gave a talk and it was super good. My hands where shaking 😆 but I made it through on my own hahah 12 talks later i'm still nervous to go speak to people. After church we went to the hospital again to give a blessing but turns out the person no longer is there anymore so we left. We then did our weekly planning which is just where we plan out the week, how we want to teach and we talk about how our friends are progressing and any personal goals we want to work on. Then we visited an awesome house, the Rodriguezs they are so fun to talk to. They have a gigantic husky they named Cookie- he is so fluffy too haha after that we parked in a Braums parking lot for T-doc (transfer news)
Now the moment you all have been waiting for…..is Elder Saunders leaving Lawton 1 North area or is he staying……
I am leaving Lawton1 North area and am heading back over to the Tulsa side and going to an area called Skiatook which is super awesome! I will be with Elder Hunting
