Area: Trinity River (Yes!)
Companions: Gamez AND Reed
I'm just kidding about not having time (or the desire to write:). We just had transfers and Elder Gamez and I are actually staying together for a third transfer! This is the first time that either of us have had a companion for three transfers, but the twist is that we ended up getting a trio, our other companion is named Elder Reed. He came out with Elder Heath and Elder Anderson trained him in the same district as me.
This last week went decently well, we had a really hard time contacting
some people that we have been teaching, and some of the less-actives in
the branch are active now, so our number of lessons took a huge hit. We
were working a lot towards finding new people and new areas that are
more densely populated with Hispanics. It really seems like we will be
able to turn around the area this week though because with Elder Reed,
we have knocked on a total of three or four doors while finding, a lady
opened the first one and talked a little bit with us and then let us
right in, we got to teach her and she is going to let us come back, so
she is a new investigator. Then we knocked a couple more without any
answers, but then the last one we knocked we ended up with a potential
investigator, and he seems really willing. I know that this transfer we
are capable of baptizing, and I honestly feel like if we do our part and
have the faith, we could baptize multiple people, as long as we put
that trust in the Lord.
I love you guys,
Elder Stanley Scott Dye
