What 3 weapons would you choose?

Week one of the transfer is over!  What a week :)

It was a relatively long week, as missions go... which means it was still one of the fastest weeks of my life.  

My companions are:

1) Elder A

Farm boy from Utah.  

Farm boys have great work ethics. :)  In fact, I was almost worried that he might outwork me.  'Tis not so, but we're totally on the same page, it's awesome. He's way funny, and is a great missionary. He's been out for about a year.  His 3 weapons in the impending zombie apocalypse would be

 a) A revolver,

 b) Katana,

 and 

c) shotgun.  

Pretty solid choices, We'll keep him around

2) Elder S

Same as last transfer. Good guy, glad to have him around :)

a) Maul

b) Shotgun

c) Sickle

I don't know why he thinks a maul is a good idea, but that's okay, we all make mistakes.  Although that one may be his last.

3) Elder T

He's our new boy from Hawaii! Get this, he chose me to be his Father!  Who'd have thought?! I thought I'd never be a father again.  It's way fun :)  

He's the happiest, most optimistic companion I've ever had.  Great guy, so happy to be here, eager to learn and to work.  

a) Bow & Arrow

b) Machine Gun

c) Shotgun

Hah.  Good luck finding ammo for your machine gun, Tani.  

4) Elder Lonas. 

Yep! still here!

a) Machete

b) Glock 19

c) One-handed Crossbow.

So by the last week of last transfer, most everyone we had found and taught last transfer had either been baptized, dropped us, or we dropped them.

Which means this week we knocked a lot of doors! SO MUCH FUN! Elder A and T both love knocking, so I'm happy :)    We've found more new investigators in a single week than I have in quite a long time, so we'll be working with them a lot this next week, doing our whole wheat and tares thing.  

Mainly I just want to knock more doors :)  We'll be placing a lot of emphasis though on trying to solidify the people we found, helping them get to church next week, and putting them on date for baptism.

I've been thinking recently about a talk given, I think by Elder Uchtdorf, entitled something along the lines of "always in the middle".

When people ask me how far I am into my mission, I just say "Oh, I'm in the middle"  :)

I'm definitely past the point of 'picking up speed' and the only thing I think I need to be wary of is the tendency to want to 'slow down' near the end.  What a silly idea :)  I'll be in the middle of my mission until the end :)

I'm in 3 Nephi right now, working around chapters 3&4.  I'f you're bored, I recommend looking up the definitions of "expedient" and "subsist" and see where it takes you.  

Well, I'm out of time.

Love,

Lonas
