C Falls

hey everyone good news....IM STAYING HERE!!!! i cant begin to explain how excited i am to be staying in the falls. e hicks is staying too which is awesome. i would love to spend the rest of my mission here but unfortunately that probly wont happen. this last week was pretty good though. we now have six people preparing for baptism in december and january which is sweet. this area is amazing. last night we actually taught a family at the bishops home which was a little intimidating at first but turned out really well. i think i also forgot to mention that we got new phones now that are really nice and we can text which is kinda weird. it helps though cuz people always text us and now we can text them back if we need to. unfortunately some missionaries use it way too much. but thats bout it for this week. im mostly just so excited to be stayin here with e hicks and have christmas and stuff here. love and miss you all. give hankers the lovins for me. speakin of i hear youre takin good care of him grandma. thanks

aloha!!! so this last week has been pretty crazy. first off we found out late monday night that we were going to be out of town all day tues and wed so we had to cancel seven of our appointments. it was sad cuz we worked so hard to get them all and they were all people we have been trying to teach for a long time. oh well. itll work out somehow. so we went to medina for those two days and i went up to cleveland for a meeting. it was really long but really good and i learned alot from president sorensen. its startign to get cold and even snowed two different days this week! its crazy. ill be glad when i dont have to worry bout snow in the winter anymore. we have an appointment today with the burgess family (one of the ones weve been trying to teach that cj, the deacon, referred us to). im excited for that. we also got a referral from a member family and saw them and set up an appointment for later tonight. we had a scare at church yesterday. sis gerstenslauger started having heart problems during sacrament but luckily theres a bunch of residents in the ward so they took care of her till the ambulance came. they arent sure if she had a mini stroke but thats their best guess. shes doin alright now though which is a blessing. but thats about all thats been going on this week. love and miss you all. give hankers the lovins
