Well... I bet you can only imagine how good/interesting this past week has been. Give or take 20 minutes ago, we are sitting here having a grand ole time emailing and everything, and someone calls us back saying that the appointment we had set up for tonight was still good! Super stoked we text one of the members asking if he can come out with us and he said yes and asked where. So I set the phone down and we head out of the family history center, and I close the door behind me. Welllll...we left the keys inside, so, we were locked out of our car and out of the family history center. So naturally we scramble around for a coat hanger. We broke into every single room but we could not get into the FHC. We then look for a paper clip and cannot find a single one! We tried the windows and they were snapped shut. So we are standing outside of the door and Elder Westergard has a brilliant idea and looked up. We grabbed some chairs and I moved the boards in the ceiling and broke into the FHC on the other side. Soooo that was loads of fun!
Rest of the week has been great! Met some more native people, went tracting in -15C so about 5 degrees. I literally look like a marshmallow. Best part of the week besides being able to break into the FHC is that we were able to teach this guy named Ken! Super solid native dude that we had called a couple weeks ago and the struggle has just been finding a time to actually sit down and meet with him until this past Tuesday! We taught the whole plan of salvation and it worked well for him because he had a lot of death in his family!
The members are awesome too! The Biglers let us stay the night at their place again and we played pool all this morning and went out to his massive lake that was frozen in some places! It is so gorgeous up here though!
Sure love and miss all of you though! Hope you had a good thanksgiving!
Love
Elder McCown
