Hey
Family,
So
this week was a good one and the weather was really nice and wasn't to hot.
Good to hear that you are all safe where ever you are. This week was nice also
because we had our car and it allowed us to do a lot more as well as a way to
get out of the heat. We have been trying to meet with people through the week
but have had little luck with the new people that we talk to. We however are
able to meet with Jeffrey and a member referral Ben. Kind of a slow week but
was nice was the lessons we did have were with members. Also that Ben came to
church that was a really big thing for us.
So
this week has been full of a lot of service to the ward members and Just Serve
opportunities. It was a lot of fun to get dirty pulling tons of weeds and
lifting heavy things as well as assembling shelves. It's nice to be able to
help in some kind of way when ever we can and those opportunities have become
more frequent. So Elder Kimball and I are very happy.
Now
to the lesson we had this week. Starting with Ben Hoop who was referred to us
by President Smith of our mission Presidency. He is also the stake president that
worked with the committees to get a temple here in Ohio. Very nice man but is
intimidating because of all his achievements. He is also a professor at Ohio
State over the department of Agriculture. Anyway we had a lesson at his house
and taught Ben who is a very nice and open to learning and said that he would
be baptized. Sad thing is we learned at church that he live in the other Ward
boundaries and we will have to refer him over to the sisters in our district.
Also
had two lessons with Jeffrey one with Brother Robinson and one with Brother Hsu
(sue). Both were really good lesson and Jeffrey is making very slow progress
but for him I guess it's very fast. He is over coming some big things in his
life that have held him down for several years so all though it's slow he is
moving in the right direction. Jeffrey connected with Brother Hsu the most
which is good because Jeffrey needs a friend. Brother Robinson was very helpful
though in helping Jeffrey open up a little more with us. As well as after the lesson
we got to know Jeffrey's son a little better. We played a street version of
Pickle Ball and it was a lot of fun and Brother Robinson was really good.
That
was our week really and it was fun to do some different things. It is also
always fun and rewarding to serve others in anyway we can. Hope you all have a
great week and that you stay safe. Keep me in the loop so that I'm not
completely lost on events. Keep up all the good work that I know your doing.
Love,
Elder
Young
