We're doing alright

The work here is alright; we have not have very much luck as far as finding people, because the town is soooo small. But we're doing alright, we have an investigator this week that we started teaching and were hoping that we can continue to teach her. Most of our time is trying to work with the less active members of the branch, and also working a lot with the branch with family history, and other activity's in the branch. We started a bible study last week and are going to try and get both members and nonmembers to start coming to that with us. We have also just been doing a whole lot of service everywhere that we can find.

So this week we did a ton of digging up old investigators. We called everyone in our phone and started to really look at everyone in the area book and call everyone that had a number or an address that we could go and see. we got a few appointments set up so were hoping that we are able to teach some lessons because it’s been a while since we have taught one haha. It’s really hard to find good people that you can talk with and be able to have a conversation with.

There are a few places here that we have not been able to go and see yet but we're hoping that we can go out and find somewhere that hasn't been tracked in the last few weeks. But it’s been super fun getting to know all of the members of the branch here and just the people here. A few days ago we were helping out in the library and some ladys came over and asked if I could help them work the computer.... hahaha, so I was more than happy to come and help out. So I went over to help and they were just super upset at using the internet. They were trying to sign up for something but couldn't figure out how to use the internet. So I went over there and was able to help them get all set up and get everything figured out.

There’s something that everyone should know about being super far down south, in the middle of nowhere. It’s like time travel, like the internet, IPods, tablets, all of this stuff is still like super strange, it’s like Japanese down here, so if you know how to use a computer like everyone needs your help haha. You just have to think about where the world was about 20 years ago. And that's where Camden Alabama is at right now. So it’s super fun down here. Yesterday our neighbor shot his bow and arrow into our tree yesterday on accident haha, so that kind of gives you an idea of the people down here haha.

Anyway, everything is going smoothly down here for the most part. This week we're going to try and go to the farthest southern part of our area and work down there. Some food for thought, we are the most southern part of the mission, so if we go too far south we might end up in the Florida mission, and that would not be too good haha.

Alabama Rocks.
