Brand new missionaries/ splitting logs

Hello everyone, I'm jut going to say right now, this email will be a little shorter this time. 

Anyone for duck soup?

But without further adieu here was my week:

We went on exchanges with our zone leaders. 
Both trios stayed in Orofino and that evening we found 6 potentials for Orofino. 
Some more promising than others but still its progress. 

Splitting Logs with the Ward

One lady worth mentioning. We set up a time to visit her a few days after she was found.
I wasn't the one who found her so I had no idea what to expect. 
She is very shy and doesn't do crowds at all. She even gets really stressed out by small things. Upon arrival we met her mother, who greeted us with distaste. Turns out previous missionaries visited her late at night and pushed themselves onto her a little too strong. The mother was there to make sure that we didn't do anything to make her daughter stressed.

Only halfway done with the work.  
We then had to unload and split

All in all we had a good lesson with her, but she said she would prefer to set up lessons instead of us. She wants to be prepared for us when she wants us over. This basically told us that she doesn't want us to come over anymore, it's all in her hands. 

We have two just ordained Elders in our ward who are in the online MTC. 
Their p-days are on Saturday, but because they can't really do anything due to the missionary rules, they want to come out with us to find and teach. So we happily obliged and had a good time.
Unfortunately not too much happened that day but next Saturday we are going out with them again. Fingers crossed for miracles. 

A Great View of the Valley

Last week a sister called us in a frantic panic.
She had sold her house and had to be out by Saturday.
So we had saved the majority of the day to help her out, the the day of the service came.
We didn't know when she wanted us over, so we called her up asking if we could be there by 10:00. Turns out that her boys the day before we had planed to help her, came and took care of everything. So we kinda got trolled there. 

Another Great View

The same day also helped our with chopping wood for some members in need. 
It took longer than expected and took us a whopping 4½ hours.
It wasn't easy, but it was fun. We mostly stacked and split wood with mauls. But it was cool to be surrounded by chainsaw cutting logs for us to load into the truck.

Well I got to get going now. Hope you all have a good week.
