Week 23 - January 1, 2018

New Year--New Me!

Honestly, not too much happened this week.  Everyone was traveling and enjoying this season.  So sorry for the lame email.  Hope everyone had the best New Years ever.

Tuesday.  We had a lesson with a guy.  His life has been awful lately.  His mom has cancer and his wife and kid left him.  I feel so bad for him, but he told us that he has never prayed before and we taught him how, and he just started  crying after his first prayer ever.  It was unreal--one of the cooler experiences yet.

Wednesday.  Today I went on an interchange and we basically contacted the entire day and had some Bible bashes.  That's it haah.

Thursday.  Today we met a family that has been inactive for 14   years and now we're teaching their kids.  They are so cool.  They had so many questions for us.  They're such an amazing family, and I hope we can continue to work with them.

Friday.  Another day of contacting the whole day, but I love it.

Saturday.  We had some awesome lessons this week.  One of them is this new family, and they are so cool.  We taught them about prophets and now they want to know everything so bad.  Also, we had a lesson with another guy and he had read all of 1 Nephi in 7 days.  What an incredible feeling.  He loves the Book of Mormon.  He just needs to change his life around so he can be baptized.

Sunday.  We went to church and then ate, but after we had to go and stay in the house because everyone was partying, so we just watched them.  Love, Elder Copeland
