It was a good week. It was busy.

Sister Leslie and I are getting along well and for the first time in the Oldham area we have so many appointments that we are struggling fitting all of them in. Many are less-active members and a few investigators as well! It's crazy!

Our mission had been compiling "A Mission Song," they are going to record it and then we will all learn it. So we got a phone call this morning saying we had been nominated to be 2 of the 8 singing on the recording. So that was a bit of a shock. So we'll be going into the recording studio on Friday!

We had some miracles happen yesterday. Last week Sister Leslie was talking to someone on the bus about general conference and this man interrupted asking if we really have a living prophet on the earth today. So Sister Leslie invited him to the broadcast of conference and he came last week. He said he really enjoyed it, but then was unable to give us his phone number or where he lived. We had set an appointment to meet at the library this last Tuesday, but we couldn't find him. We were a bit discouraged because we didn't know how to contact him. Well he showed up at church yesterday and stayed the whole time. So we set up another appointment for this week.

Also, a week ago we talked to a man on the bus... well he talked to us at first. We got on the bus and he said, "Oye, I'll talk to you." So we went down and talked to him about the gospel. He seemed completely uninterested so we thought all we were doing was planting a seed. Well he showed up at church yesterday completely surprising us! He still doesn't want to meet with us yet, but he said he might come back to church another time in a few weeks. So that was pretty great!

We heard Thursday that they are introducing new Sister leadership in missions. Training Sister Leaders or something like that. They're basically zone leaders without the Priesthood (as Sister Preston put it). So that will be interesting. We'll start having those in our mission starting next transfer. So many changes with all the new missionaries and everything! We have 15 sisters coming in at the next transfer.

Well, I don't have a whole lot else to say for the time being. I haven't figured anything out with fall housing yet, but working on it.
