So this week was good. I cant believe that next week is transfer email week?!?!? crazy Elder Mills and I both think we are staying here.
So Elder Mills and I have been talking to EVERYONE so this week we decided that we were going to do chalk art!! so that was fun we drew out the Plan of Salvation (well Elder Mills and I are not really good at Drawing) but that is ok!
It has been really smoky here because of fires this week.
So this week has been full of Different languages Spanish Samoan and Bengali.
Teaching a English class the Family I was teaching they speak Bengali and they went really fast though the work sheet so I got another and again they were done before other Groups were finished so I told them They will read it in English (to practice) then they will teach me how to say it in Bengali and I will practice that... lets just say I am NOT going to be learning Bengali haha

The Prophet
Well the Prophet came to Winnipeg! He and Elder Anderson came. Elder Anderson's talk was on the Gathering of Israel "this is the Most important work you can be doing right now". He was NOT just talking to the missionaries, this is ALL of our work! that includes Going to the Temple and helping the people on the other side, inviting people to follow Jesus Christ and His church here on earth.
President Nelson talked about the Temple. (the Winnipeg temple is Just starting to be built) we can bring a temple to you but you have to be prepared to receive the temple. Everyone who spoke was great! I am grateful I was able to get transferred back to Winnipeg because ONLY the missionaries in Winnipeg got to go!
This week was good we have been working on talking to EVERYONE like everyone. We were driving down the street and there was a Guy walking so we drove past him got out of the Car so that we could talk to Him. We are continuing to pray and ask for the Lords Help to lead us to the People who are Prepared and ready to here the Message. Tell you the Truth sometimes I feel like He is leading us the the who are NOT prepared.
Now why would this be? we are doing our best, Lord why dont you give us someone to teach? that has been on my mined and I know that The Lord is leading us to people. but He is Just seeing if we are willing to put in our effort and Time and our FAITH that He is preparing the people hear.
I am so grateful to be on a Mission and being able to learn to Reply on the Lord for help. I know that He loves us and wants the Best for us that is Why he gives us tries!

We talk to a lot of different types of people. some people have lived here for 5 years and still don't know English so we just give them cards and tell then to change the Language. (well I think they understand that haha)
this Sunday we went to the Primary so that we could so we could teach the Song I Hope they call me on a Mission so that was good (they are all better singers then Elder Mills and I. We tool a Video of the 2 of us singing and we just laughed the hole time)
Something that I am trying to Focus on in the Book of Mormon. Such as Memorizing where scriptures are so as we are street contacting we can share those so people can see what the Book of Mormon teaches. (I have done that before I just got really lazy with my Memorizing so I stopped making flash cards. also because the flash cards take so long to make and I always seem to have a lot then give them away to another missionary)
The Book of Mormon Is awesome!! I have been reading in Alma with the War Chapters and I love them! we can learn so much such as Satan will poison us be Degrees or we need to be continually fortifying our weakest areas (our temptations) and making week things become strong!
I know that to be true that the Lord can help us make our weak things become strong! I have seen this in my own life back at home but also learning to be a missionary.
Remember to Trust the Savior and His timing!

Hello
So this week was Crazy!! it was fun we are working HARD to find someone to teach!! we are doing our best.
So this week Elder Mills and I were tracing about 15 -20 min walk away from the Church... We could see that it was going to rain... well we thought that it was just kinda sprinkle on us and we would be ok... we were SOOO wrong it just starts Dumping on us... No members near by or even an investigator who we could hope to get into there house, so we start or Run to the Church. thought the Grass (now mud)
oh man I forgot how out of shape I was in haha we were running as fast as we could for like 5 min but still we got just soaked .. so that was funny.
Elder Mills is awesome! we love to do lots of the same things back home. but the best part is we teach with the same stile of teaching so I feel we work well off each other.
So my first week we talk to this family on the street. they just move from China so they could not speak English very well. so we told them that we teach a English Class on Saturdays and we gave them a card and the address to the Church with our phone number on it (because they were new here and did not know their address or their phone number)
well I Gave then the Wrong phone number :( I though that I had it memorized but it was just a little bit off... anyways they came to English class!!
Then we invited them to church the next day.... They thought we invited them to another English Class on sunday haha so they came and they were so confused...``Elders, where is English Class`` there is not English class today. oh ok we will be back on Saturday haha
anyways I am doing good!
Remember to Love the Savior today!
