First off....HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!!! HOPE IT WAS AN AWESOME BIRTHDAY!!!
So I am staying here in Burns Lake...I dont know why it’s called Burns lake though...it’s too cold here for anything to burn...and the lake is frozen...that just doesn’t make any sense.. So besides it being below freezing here almost 24/7, it’s been great! The coldest it got this week was about 6 degrees...sooooo cold...I have never seen those numbers before which is the crazy part!
So we tracked in snow a lot this week...talked to a lot of people...and we were able to teach this week! We finally have some solid people to teach which is basically the best miracle ever! One of them is Ken Solonas. He is a super cool humble native dude that had been taught by missionaries before and he is coming a long quite well! He loves having us over and before we left one time he asked for a book of Mormon! He ASKED for one! So weird but sooooo cool!
We also got a text from someone that we had been trying to teach before, and we had never gotten in contact with them for a solid 4-5 weeks. Anyway, she texted us saying that she had been in Vancouver for the past little bit and that she and her family had been sick, and that she wants to meet! We are so going to see them this week though! So stoked!
Everything has been great though! Can’t get any better here! The members are awesome! I can’t wait for Christmas though!
God has been so good though! We have been finding new people to teach and it can’t get any better than that because it is really really cold outside, and I can only imagine it is going to get colder in the coming weeks!
Sure love and miss all of ya though!
Love
