Lisbon Transfer Three Week Four

aloha everybody! this week has been fun but at the same time not very eventful. elder johnson and i still get along great and ive learned so much from him. hes an awesome missionary. cant believe its june already! it goes fast. congrats on getting your surgery moved up grandma. im praying for you and grandpa. so last pday was really fun. our district went to the browns house and helped them finish up the zipline. its four hundred and fifty feet long so its way fun. and theyre the ones with rope swings and stuff too but this time we brought airsoft guns and had a big airsoft war in the forest which was awesome! then i brought my guitar and we built a fire and made smores while e koford and i took turns playin. it was alot of fun. and yesterday for memorial day a family invited us over for a cookout and we learned how to play cornhole. its a game with a board on the ground and has a hole in it and you have to throw a bean bag type thing full of corn into the hole or on the board to score. kinda like horse shoes. it was actually pretty fun. ive never seen it played sober before haha. we also had zone conference this week. it was really good. every time i hear from president sorensen i like him more and more. we are focusing as a mission to double convert baptisms. its a stretch and weve been learning alot about setting baptismal dates and so far the baptism dates have sky rocketed. e johnson and i want so badly to set some baptismal dates and use the new committment patterns that we have been taught but just cant find anyone to teach. i feel like this area is right on the edge and has so much potential we just have to give it a little push. we are workin crazy hard to find people without much success yet but this week have been workin on new and better ways to approach and teach people so im excited to start workin with those and see how well they work. so its really exciting but at the same time makes for some long days when you work all day and still cant teach anyone. were just looking forward to find somebody who is really prepared and ready for the gospel of Jesus Christ. sometimes just takes time to find them i guess. next week is transfers so i wont email until tues again. chances are pretty good im leaving cuz in my last interview with president he told me that change would be good for me so well see. anyways i think thats bout all thats been going on. like i said fun but not too eventful. i really love studying from the scriptures though. i look forward to morning studies and nighttime when i have a little time to study them. they are such a blessing in my life and i know they have brought me closer to my Savior. it amazes me how many people lost their lives so that we could have the scriptures that we do. anyways i love you all. thank you so much for your letters. have a good week!
