Walmart is never more fun than while you're on a mission |
Howdy Partners,
It's
been another hot one here in Idaho folks! I can't remember the last
time it stayed under 100 degrees during the day! And all this heat has
caused a lot of fires to spring up in the area, burning a few of our
members' houses and lands. It also has shut down a bunch of roads, so
we've been stuck in Weiser without being able to drive to the other
towns we cover.
In other news, one of my
companions, Elder Nicholas, is heading home this Saturday. He's served a
great mission and I've been blessed to be his companion for these few
weeks. Elder Washburn and I might be getting another companion on the
day Elder Nicholas leaves, so trio life isn't over!
The
work in Weiser is going great. Zoe, who accepted the invitation to be
baptized last week, is doing great! The ward is doing a great job of
taking her in and making her feel welcome. It can be kind of
intimidating to show up to a new church with a whole bunch of new
people, but a little bit of love can make a huge difference. We also had
the Szary family come to church for the first time, which was awesome!
Big
news: One of the members that fed us dinner made homemade donuts. They
were pretty dang good. So the three of us decided that we could try
making some back at our place. After much practice, deliberation, and
trial and error, we have perfected the donuts. We've now made them three
days in a row, which is definitely not healthy, but it's worth it. But
don't worry, we watched a lot of videos about overcoming addictions this
week. We're gonna be okay.
I hope your mouth is watering |
Thanks for the thoughts and prayers! Please pray for those fighting and dealing with the fires in this area! God bless!
Sincerely,
Elder Doyle
