Knock, Knock, Knocking...


We changed nametags - and went as each other!!



Hello everybody!

So the start of the week we had exchanges with the Zone Leaders! I went out with Elder Ovard and we went tracting all day! It really was not an eventful day, it was actually probably the most I've ever been rejected in a single day. Nobody even took a pamphlet, so it was tough, but I still feel like I learned a ton! The next morning we went back our into the streets, and it was mostly the same. 

So the temperature dropped this week so we started getting into the 30s and 40s, the nights have been getting in the teens. So pretty chilly, the wind is the worst part.

We've been doing a lot of tracting, but haven't seen much success. But just grinding away! 

So this week we had a dinner with our recent convert, Chris, he had a crazy experience this week. He was shopping at Family Dollar and it got robbed! But he also got a referral for us which was the cashier at the Family Dollar. He said she noticed a change in him and wanted to know what it was from, so he's like, "Oh let me tell you when we're not getting robbed." So we got that coming up in the future.

So when we were tracting we knocked into this super old guy. He invited us in, which was really nice cause it was cold, then preceded to talk to us nonstop for over an hour! There wasn't even a break in the conversation for us to cut in and excuse ourselves. I also have to admit that while he was talking I started to nod off, my only excuse is missionary work is tiring and I am tired almost all day every day! But it took us awhile to get out of there. Super nice guy, seems really lonely, really likes his dog.

So this week we have a possibility of a baptism! We have been working with Ashlynn for a long time now almost 10 weeks. It's been a slow process but if all goes well her baptism will be on Saturday!

Not a lot to update on, but things here are going well!

Love y'all!

Elder Andrasko
