At the Sugar Shack

Chancellor Battlefield

With the Spotsylvania Elders

Hey guys! This week was very long and boring. Last P day, we went to the Chancellor Battlefield. It was pretty fun and talks about most of what happened in the Civil War that took place around this area of Virginia. 

On Tuesday, we received two more elders here in the Massaponax area. Their names are Elder Morris and Elder Kohler. They are pretty cool. They live next door to us. Bad thing about them is that since they are here, we had split our area. And they got most of our promising investigators. So for the entire rest of the week, we have been tracting and trying to find new ones. Also, we had to rearrange the district here. We lost both of the sister companionships and the Spotsylvania elders, but we picked up the new Massaponax elders and the two Fredericksburg companionships that are elders. 

We called a potential investigator in our area book. Her name is Sissy. She sounded really excited when we said we could come over and do service for her. We went over on Wednesday and Friday mornings to paint her house. She is a really nice short old lady. She made us lunch both days. 

I went on familysearch.org and found my way all the way to Adam and Eve. So that's pretty neat. That's all that really happened this week. Sorry it was so boring, but I try my hardest to make the week interesting. Have a blessed day! Love and miss you all!
