So this week was a pretty good week. We had a baptism on Saturday with Janie Oliver. She is actually 70 and was super excited to get baptized, she was even baptized by Bishop Davis. We also had Zone Conference this week, so President Brown and Elder Murphey and my friend Elder Jensen, the assistants, came and we had the conference from about 10 to 5 with a lunch break in the middle. It was really good and I learned a lot for being better at teaching people. The weather changes everyday, yesterday was borderline hot and today is windy, rainy, and borderline cold. You never know what you might get here. We ate dinner at the Yawu's, they moved from Africa a few years ago and were baptized about 1 year ago, so i got to eat some African food without going there. It was cabbage with pork and bone in fish ( I didn't get any but elder Whittaker did, he doesn't like fish either), chicken wings, chilli, donuts, muffins, and plantains. We also visited Cornelius, a less active with a really big afro he sticks his hair pick in when he walks around. We cleaned at the Food bank and unpackaged soap this week. We also found some new people, so hopefully we teach them more than 1 or 2 lessons. I did get the package on Saturday, thanks so much. I was asking Elder Whittaker if he knew what scotcheroos were and so it was perfect to show him. I checked out the book and my pick by just looking at the pictures was lot 28, but 1 looked good too haha. And thanks for the gloves and pen dad, you can always use pens and gloves, especially from Sitz. Thanks for the updates, Elder Mitchell is the District Leader for us 4 and Elder Liddell and Elder Elggren in the New Portage Branch, which is right below our area. I don't mind to much being on a bike, at least when it isnt to cold, because we are able to get outside and move around a little more than when you have a car. With General Conference coming up that is exciting for us, we will probably end up watching it at the church. We have been just trying to visit and as always find people to teach. I hope you have a wonderful week, I am doing good, i forgot my camera at the baptism, so maybe I can get a picture to you from Elder Whittaker. I appreciate all the support still from everyone. Have a great week.
Love Elder Koden Hunt
