Vegemite ~ yep, I tried it

Hey Family,

Well what can I say about this week. It has been a week full of ups and downs for this missionary. 

We found some people who really need the gospel and are keen to learn and had to drop some people that I really was hoping would be able to get baptized.

I have decided to not go through the whole week like I usually do anymore becaus I just don't have the time to sit down and write out what happens everyday. . . .  So I will just give you some highlights of my week and you guys can ask me questions later that are more in depth about stuff. 

We were finally able to meet with our recent convert that was baptized in July and has not come to church for 8 weeks. It was super sad to hear him tell us that he no longer thinks that our church is the only true church. He still thinks our church is true but also thinks other churchs are too. W are hoping to be able to teach him a couple of lessons this week so that he can feel the Spirit and know that this is the only true church again. 

I had dinner at the Vincent's home again. They are great people and I have really grown quite close to them in the last 6 weeks. They made me try Veggiemight! It really was not bad just really salty. 

We met a gentleman from South Africa who is really in need of the gospel in his life. His guilt has driven him to the very edge and we came just at the right time. He is very keen to learn more and wants to feel the peace that comes from the atonement again. 

We had a Zone Blitz in Kings park this week as well and it was great. I took some picture which I'll send. It was a great chance for us to meet people and get lots of referrals for our Zone. I went on exchanges with the Zone Leaders as well. I had a blast and learned a ton. I was in the Lockridge area for that day and was able to meet some truely amazing people. 

Yesterday we had another cottage evening at the Berryman's house which is always good. For those of you who do not know what a cottage evening is don't feel bad I did not either till I got here. It is basically a huge family home evening with a couple families.

Dad: You look good, very clean shaven

C: Yep, I may have to start shaving twice a day because any stubble is too much stubble.

Found this beauty in my flat, let's just say I sleep with one eye open

So I received a call from President Fife last night and........... I will be staying in Girrawheen! My new companion is Elder Kay. I pick him up tomorrow from the airport.  He has been serving in a country area recently so that is why I have to go to the airport. 

Well I hope all is well.

Love,
