Soooo...great week!!! We have been just pushin so hard to get into those members homes! So we have been working from the ground up! President Burt and I have been going back and forth on this and basically we have decided that starting from the bottom is the best way! So, needless to say we have been on top of our members! I think the greatest way that we can help them in their missionary work is by going into their homes and comparing the differences between missionary work and home teaching...I have scavenged for numerous differences between the two and these are what we have found. 1: We wear name tags, 2: We do this 24/7, 3: They teach people who are members and we teach non-members...and that’s about it! We are both on the same page missionary and member alike! One thing that we have been able to do is make home and visiting teaching more focused on missionary work. We have committed each every single member we visit to first off repent and actually do their HT/VT as well as find referrals for us in those whom they HT/VT.
So the ground work is getting laid out and things are going great! Wayne is doing great! He has not come to church yet but he is understanding what we are teaching him! We were able to call him up a couple times this week and read the Book of Mormon with him! It’s been great and he is understanding it as well as making a healthy habit! We were also able to teach him about prophets as well and watch "On the Lord's errand". Literally the most legit movie about good ole Tommy Monson! He loved the video and hopefully will receive an answer soon! He is also going to do the food drive this week with us so that will be fun!
Other than that we are hitting the finding grind! I have knocked out probably 90% of Coquitlam, so hopefully we will get the other 10% done this week! After that, haha, I dont know where I am going to go!
Well I sure love and miss yall! And thanks mom for the packages!
Love
Elder McCown
