This week has been a super great week for us. Of course last week I got Elder Stephens as my companion, he has been out 6 weeks longer than me and he is great. He is from Magdolina New Mexico and has 8 younger siblings. We have lots of similar interests so that is good. He likes being outside and playing sports. Elder Cortez also is living with us now too, i knew him from Toledo. Elder Robinson is particular about some things so that is what reminded him of me mostly. It has also been pretty fair for the weather so more people are out and about for us to talk to which is great. We were able to set a baptismal date with Corrina, so that is always good. We have struggled a little getting in contact with people this week, but have been able to do some good work I think. We have done a good share of biking and visiting less active members this week. Yesterday we went to a food bank in the basement of a baptist church and helped out there, mostly just giving people their food or helping them carry it outside. We also helped another man move into the ward on Saturday, he is a super nice guy. Yesterday we had a cool experience, we had just got done eating our lunch and got out of the truck to go knock on a less actives door. We saw a guy walking down the street so we talked to him. After a little bit he told us he hadn't prayed this morning and that he was about to relapse on taking drugs( which he was in the process of taking addiction recovery classes), but because he talked to us he wasn't doing that anymore and was going to work. I feel I have learned mainly how to better teach people this week. Elder Stephens is a superb teacher. I am doing pretty good right now I think. We are just chugging along doing missionary work, time for sure fly's by that's all I know.
Love Elder Koden Hunt
