Week 54  Oct 29 2019
Brayden Knowlden

     Well as I am writing this I have a head cold and I'm not feeling to hot. Monday was the usual stuff, and we really didn't do much sadly. Around 445 we made our way to a member that lives right outside of the actual ward boundary. We had a really good time. For dinner we had some delicious steak. We then made our way to another members house for Family Home Evening. We shared a message with the Hovey Family and made our way home.
     Tuesday was a pretty good day after studies we made our way to the Jenny Museum and we helped rake the lawn. We then changed and had a lesson with Brother Gould and he has been sick for a while now, and was just happy we came to check in on him, it helped give him peace. When we got back home we did some weekly planning and had a good talk about how we want to improve our area. That night we had an amazing lesson with our Pam. Brother Volpetti changed up his whole schedule to help us out.  It was pretty dang cool for him to be there with us. The lesson was on the Restoration, we honestly had an amazing lesson, she asked a lot of awesome questions, we hope to set a baptismal date with her soon! For the rest of the night we did some street contacting.
     Wednesday morning we got up and made our way to the Food Bank. It sure was a surprise for them to see three of us! There wasn't a lot to do today, so we helped organize most of it. We then came home and did studies for up until it was time to go to Ward Coordination. We got to the Church and we had some time so Elder White was working on "My Plan" all missionaries do it to help transition to go home. We then had a good coordination and then went out to dinner. We ate at "Lobstah Hut" I got a Lobstah mac and cheese.  It was sooo good! To end the night we had a lesson with a Cape Verrdian, (Portuguese speaking) so Elder Leite did most the work. He wants to feel what we feel with prayer, we hope to meet with him again.
     Thursday we had some good studies, and I made it a goal to finish the Bible before I go home and I am really enjoying my studies of it. Though at time I am confused I know it will help me later on! After lunch we had a lesson with our friend Al and watched a short video on the First Vision. He seemed to really like it! We then came home and made a plan to share a message for visits with members. We made a really interactive restoration lesson. We would be doing it tonight at our dinner lesson with the Martins. They live in the furthest part of our area so it took a little bit to get there. We had burgers for dinner, they were pretty great.  We then gave a Gospel message. After that we made a stop on the way home to see the Salmons. We also shared a message with them. Sadly that was the last time we would be seeing them, they are heading south for the winter. They sure are an amazing family.
     Friday morning we had our District Council and it was over video to save miles. Later Elder White worked on his "My Plan", after he finished a section we came home for lunch. Shortly after we drove to the Kingston Library to see if we could hold a English Class there. We filled out an application, we should be getting a message /email soon. While on the way back we did some tracting before we went home for dinner. After dinner we called some friends and made our way to see Pam, sadly she wasn’t awake so we could try another time. To end the night we went to visit Ollie, Larry, Peyton and Myana. We had a lesson on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It went really well, then Peyton and Mayana said they want to be baptized, we will be working with them too!
     Saturday was a great day. We got a text from Pam saying sorry we didn’t meet yesterday but said we could come over for a lesson. We had our studies then made our way over to visit Pam. We had an amazing lesson with her on the Plan of Salvation.  It gave her a lot of peace on the message we shared. She is so happy to hear that we truly have a loving God. After our lesson with her we changed at home and rushed to the Hoveys home. They invited us to go clamming with them and a non-member father of sister Hovey. We honestly had a really good time with them and I found about 30-40 clams! After a little bit we came back home to change and go to the Chapel for the Ward Trunk or Treat. When we got there Sherri a friend we are teaching brought us some costumes to use. We had a fun time with them. I was Captain America, Elder White was Batman and Elder Leite was the Hulk. Even our friend Pam came, and she felt so welcomed. We sat and talked to her along with a few other members. While we talked to her, some members walked around with her grand daughter so she could have fun. She truly is getting ready for baptism! To end the night we went to Market Basket to get a couple food items for the weekend.
     Sunday, we had a great time at Church, it was the Primary Program and it was lots of fun! We had three friends come today, they all had a good time. The second hour was Elders Quorum and we talked about prayer with faith. After Church we came home for studies and I took a nap because I was really tired. When I woke up we made our way to the Webers home for dinner. We had black bean soup, it was perfect for the rainy weather. It was fun to get to know them more. We shared the Restoration message with them, and the kids enjoyed it a lot! For the rest of the night we did tracting in North Plymouth and we even found a couple people with interest!

            Proverbs 16:16

     "16 How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver"

     Some of the greatest treasures of life truly is wisdom and understanding. As we have a greater knowledge on what we believe it can truly benefit us and who we are to become! I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen
