So just to tell you guys just a little of what has happened to me this week. We started the week off really slow because of how tired we were. Missionary work is so tiring and I'm working out every morning and night trying to stay fit and not get fat. But like I said it was going slow so we decided to try some things. We heard that a ton of nonmembers play ball every Wednesday night so we played with them. I got a dunk on a kid that was actually a Priest in the ward, it was so awesome. I dunked it so hard that I was surprised that the rim didn't break or get bent. Now everyone at church calls me the Baller Missionary cause I am the best basketball player that is a missionary. So that was one thing that we have started to increase investigators. We usually pick up 1 investigator a week if we are good. But this last week we got 3. One was a guy named, "Guy" that does a lot of cowboy work and we got another one on a reservation. We are in charge of the Strathmore and Siksika Nation. There are a lot of Blackfoot Indians here. The other one was pretty crazy. We had heard of some missionaries that had prayed over the map to know where to go so we decided to do that. We had the feeling to go to a street that happened to be the street that the bishop and a couple of members lived on. Before we left we said another prayer telling God that we were going to be in that area and if there was anyone in that area that needed the gospel in there lives to direct us to him. So when we got there we decided to start knocking doors, so we did, and on like the 5th door we found our guy and we are teaching him now. It was a pretty crazy experience but with enough faith anything is possible. I feel that sometimes I don't have as much as what I should because when I'm reading the Book of Mormon it says faith so much. Talking about the Book of Mormon, I started it over in the MTC and I'm in Alma right now, I can read the scriptures better then I ever could.
Something else that was pretty crazy is that I guess that licence plates get stolen a lot up here and we got ours stolen, and we have been driving around without one hoping not to get pulled over. But we just got a new one so it is all good. The food is great and I have given 3-4 Books of Mormon away, it is really easy now that I am a missionary. And there is a ton of candy that is different. Well I hope that you all are having a great time. I miss you guys, Love Elder Allred
