Week 22

Life in Shelbyville, or as the local's call it 'Shovel' is purty good.  This past week we've been pretty busy taking on 2 counties.  our area from corner to corner probably takes about 1 1/2 hours to drive.   But at least now we have a car eh?!

The past week we've taught several people, and about 7 of them we have plans to set a baptismal date with this week or maybe next week depending on when we can see them! 

First we have Barbara, She is on probation however so we'll have to get special permission to baptize her.  

Then we have 4 of her grand kids, who by the way are the craziest, unruliest kids you'll ever meet.

Then we have Mike, he's a neighbor of a member in lewisburg.  He's the only one who asks real question's that are good, i like him.

Then we have Donna, a friend of Barbara's, who'll probably get baptized when Barbara does.

And then on top of that we have Jan still!

All of these people are referral's!  So Remember!!! REFER PEOPLE TO THE MISSIONARIES!!!

In other news, the people here in shovel Cannot drive worth beans...  I've witnessed like 2 crashes and several almost accidents, a few of which happened with us.  

I've heard that no one will be home for Christmas? is this true?  Y'all are crazy....  

I actually hope to be able to try and do the call home on Christmas eve if at all possible.  Cause the member were going to on Christmas hate's us, and the ward, and pretty much everything.

But i doubt i can do it on Christmas eve.... so don't bank on it.

That's all for now i guess....

Love Ya'll!
