September 12, 2016

Not a whole lot to say this week, other then we picked up two new investigators. Eric's wife and then this one dude that is kinda crazy who believes in Arianism. I think that he will get baptized in the near future. When we were teaching him the first lesson I got the opportunity to recite the first vision for the first time! It was pretty crazy just how powerful and how much it brings the spirit. I know that he felt it, at least for a split second. We also got in with 11 less actives this week, that might be the highest that has ever been done in my area. We were so busy this past week and I believe that we will even be busier this week. I have reached a record high of 190 pounds, so I have gained 15 pounds since I left home. This scared the crap out of me because I didn't think that I looked much different. We get served meat every time for dinner so we are getting a ton of protein, and I have also been eating an egg every morning, sometimes two to get even more. Some missionary left a whole big thing of creatine, so I have also been taking that when I work out and I have been getting pretty solid. It also got down to 5 degrees Celsius yesterday and we should be getting snow everyone says. I haven't made it out to the Heterite Village yet, but they do set up stands out in the street every once and a while so I bought a big bag of potatoes and some whole wheat bread that they had made. They are pretty interesting but they have really good healthy food for cheaper than what is in the stores which is nice. Well hope that you all have a nice week. love you all!
Love, Elder Allred
