it rained three different days this week!!!!!!!!!!!! its been great! there was a full blown thunderstorm last night. 3/4 inch hail. it was sweet! one of the other elders just told me that a road in his area actually caved in. im not really sure what he means by that, but it sounds exciting!

elder parker and i have been doing our best to stay excited about the work. there is not a lot going on in this ward and so that means a lot of knocking on doors for us. knocking on doors with no success is pretty tiring, but we are pretty good at making it fun.

we had a good week this past week! i would say it was our best one yet in the area. we had to pass Kaz off to the singles ward elders. its always lame to pass investigators off, but they are good elders and will make sure kaz keeps progressing.

and we picked up two new investigators. they are a married couple with 3 kids and are friends of a member in the ward. hopefully our lesson with them this week goes well!

i also made a visit to the ER this week. my swollen knee turned into a swollen leg. turns out it WAS infected. all is better now. they gave me a painful shot in the bum, did an ultra-sound on my leg, and gave me a different prescription for an anti-biotic and it seems to have done the trick :) i was slightly scared for a moment, i was laying in the ER and an employee came in and asked me if i had a will! i said "no, do i need one!?" the lady kinda laughed and said, "no, we just ask as a precaution" hahaha, im alive, so now its funny.

the New Testament is going great! ive been reading the Sermon on the Mount. lots of good stuff in there.

i dont know what else to write.

heres a joke, maybe ive already told it, but it goes along with the new testament:

Q. what kind of car did the apostles drive?


A. it was a honda, because they were all in "one accord"

hahahahahaha

i hope everyone is doing great, and is having lots of fun!

love,
elder donovan
