Week #60

Dear Everyone,

So this was a pretty fantastic week. A very big change from the previous week.

Monday: So this turned out to be an okay day. I said last week that we would be going to an aquarium. That was false. Well, we were going to go, but it turned out that it is closed every Monday. Dang it! Oh well. We just went home after that. Taught a couple really good lessons in the evening. An overall good day for us.

Tuesday: A way good day. We 4 lessons, all with members present. They were all way good. We even got a new investigator who is turning out to be way good. We taught the usual English and we had a good turn out this week as well. We taught a way good lesson after English too this family that we have been trying to teach for a few weeks. It is a mother and her daughter. They are interested and really like going to church as well. The daughter comes to the activities every week as well.

Wednesday: Another fantastic day. The Zone Leaders came to Sisaket for a surprise visit to our District meeting. That really was quite the surprise. I am glad that I had one prepared. After that I did an exchange with Elder Nelson again. That was great. We taught 3 lessons and got a few new investigators for them. It was a fun day.

Thursday: Another good day her in Sisaket. Elder Grover and I did our weekly planning. It was really good. I always like doing weekly planning. I feel much more prepared for the next week. It means I don't have to think as hard :) We taught a few lessons in the afternoon that went well for sure. The members here are such a great help to us.

Friday: A most excellent day as well. Taught another 4 lessons with members. I can't believe how much the Lord has blessed us this week with people to teach. Elder Grover and I have been having a lot of fun.

Saturday: Consisted of 4 more lessons with members. It seems though that we taught very short lessons because something came up at the last minute. There is a woman who we are teaching (the same ones from Tuesday night) who works at the prison. She got a last minute call to go into work to be with a woman who was addicted to some hard core drugs. That was a little frustrating for us because we have been trying to find a set schedule to teach them. A pretty good day. Then there was a church activity that we attended with some investigators. It was called "Sisakets got Talent." It was way fun. Got lots of video of Thai style dancing and skits and such. Way fun.

Sunday: It always seems that Sunday is our slower day. We had 4 investigators come to church. That was cool. Then we only taught one lesson which happened right after church. Other than that, nothing else. Although I was very pleased with the amount of work from my District. They are all a bunch of great missionaries.

That is all for this week!

Love,
Elder Ackerman
