So basically this is all happening because a missionary went home in our zone ( I don't know why) and so his companion that was left in the Weatherly area joined our companionship and so now we cover Monte Sano area and Weatherly area! Its been pure craziness!
Since we're working both areas we have investigators and appointments in both areas so the first day we spent a lot of time planning everything out and figuring out how to make it all work. And its been working pretty well so far, we just do a lot of driving... which is fine as long as the Lords work is getting done! Which it definitely is!
Our new companions name is Elder Fulton, he's from Utah and he's just awesome! He'll be in a couple of he pictures at the end of this letter. Its been so much fun being in a trio and Elder Fulton has added an awesome new freshness to our companionship and i'm so grateful for this opportunity we have to work together as a trio and cover both areas. Even if i have been living out of a suitcase for the past week haha!
Anyways, this week was also Halloween (obviously) and it was a lot of fun! On Wednesday we had a tri-ward trunk or treat and it was a lot of fun! We decorated our car with the sisters and the Zone leaders and handed out candy to all the crazy kids. We actually used the webbing and spiders that you guys sent me a couple weeks ago to decorate the trunk! Ill include a picture! It looked awesome!
On Friday night, we went to a members house and carved pumpkins with them and then roasted bratwurst and s'mores around a fire! It was so much fun and ill include some pics of the pumpkins!
Then on Saturday we were able to teach a couple that were Messianic Jews. Kind of a contradiction but their religion is their religion and I respect that. Anyways, we taught them and had an awesome discussion with them and it was their Sabbath so we got to do the prayer to close the Sabbath with them! It was such a cool experience and the spirit was so strong while we both discussed our thoughts and beliefs.
On Halloween all the missionaries were told to not be out of their apartments past seven unless at a members house, so we went to a members house that was having a party for all the missionaries in our zone. We had chili, s'mores and hot chocolate and played a bunch of games and did origami haha! It was a lot of fun and the members were so awesome.
Then on Sunday, because we cover two areas, we went to two sets of three hour church.... Which was a little tiring but awesome! We also forgot about daylight savings so we woke up at 5:30 thinking it was 6:30 and got to the church at 7:20 thinking that it was 8:20.... so we sat in the church for an extra hour before anyone even showed up! The one day we could've slept an extra hour and we missed it! Ahhh! But whatever, i'm over it...not really but that's okay.
After church we had two lessons with potentials and ate dinner at a members house! And now its Monday and we have a full week of work ahead of us and i'm so excited!
I hope you all stayed safe this weekend, had a lot of fun, and ate a bunch of candy! Transfer calls are this Saturday, on my birthday, so next monday i'll let you guys know whats happening this next transfer!
I hope you have a great week! I love you all so much!
Sincerely,
Elder Honn
p.s. We made the jello brain with the mold you guys sent and it was awesome! The rest of the pictures will just be from the Halloween weekend!:)
