Couch Moving and Smart Phone Training (Boring....)

Mon: We had a super fun family home evening with a member family that doesn't come to church that often. It was super fun and a really good lesson.

Tues: Another Exchange! Today I was with Elder Lawrence in my area. We had a good exchange and were able to teach a pretty good amount. Also, we had a church BBQ tonight and a 16-year-old we have been teaching came out and afterwards we did a church tour. He had a really good time and thought our church was super cool! 

Wed: Today we had Zone Conference! It was the most boring Zone Conference I have ever been to because all they did was play training videos about the smartphones we will be getting. We got through it though! After Zone Conference, we had a little time before dinner and heard a member that lives nearby was getting rid of a couch. We told her we would take it and she was like alright. After we took it out of her apartment she was like "So.. Where is the truck?" We then picked up the couch and carried it a quarter mile to our apartment. (Don't worry we took turns so we wouldn't die, there were 4 of us) She thought we were insane but hey! We have a couch now! Our gym memberships have been working! 

Thurs: Spent most of the morning helping decorate the church for a women's conference and filling out missionary paperwork. We had a lesson with some members who have an orange tree. Elder Israelsen had never picked an orange before so he was pretty excited! 

Fri: Today we helped move in 2 couches for the member we took the couch from earlier this week. It was a struggle because it was just Elder Israelsen and I because the other Elders were busy. We made it though! A couple more weeks of this and we will have the biggest fore-arms in the mission! 

Sat: Today we met a 91-year-old Hmong guy! He is the Oldest guy I have ever taught! Him and his wife said they would be willing to ride the bus to church tomorrow as well so that will be fun! 

Sun: This morning Elder Strong and I went together to go teach a lesson so the other Elders could go to Ward Council. We were able to teach a super cool family then go ride the bus with the 91-year-old and his wife! It was fun! 

Hope everyone has a good week! Till next time! 

-Elder Yskes
