Vidalia - Week 5


Dear Family,

We had transfers this week and I will be staying in Vidalia with Elder Young, and we added another missionary in our companionship named Elder Harris. Also, there are two more Elders that moved into our area so now we have five missionaries here which should increase the work, and hopefully get some great results. Elder Harris is from West Valley, Utah and he is a great missionary. So the Lord is hastening the work!

Last P-Day I went fishing in our pond in the backyard. When we were cleaning out the garage and found a fishing pole. I used a Germ-X bottle as a bubble, a paper clip as a hook, and chicken as bait. I got a lot of nibbles, but I couldn't catch anything. None the less it was great to go fishing.

My P-Days are wake up, work out, get ready, eat breakfast, and study until lunch. Then e-mail, get groceries, wash the car, clean the apartment, do laundry, write letters, and make dinner.

We usually start tracting at 12:00 p.m. and come in at 8:00 p.m., but recently we have been getting a couple of appointments. We select our area and schedules every Friday during weekly planning, and adjust them during the week as needed. We try to alternate door approaches as promptings or situations develop. There are a couple of converts, but I haven't heard their baptismal stories yet. My tendonitis isn't too bad, I just get pain after a little bit of walking and it is uncomfortable, but nothing I can't handle. I am doing alright and the weather is good. I love you all and hope you are all doing good.

Love,

Elder Hinrichs
