Alexandria Stake Conference brings friends and Elder Lehr's mission "sons" together: Elder Toone, Elder Allen (son #2), Dawn Leone, Elder Lehr (mission dad) and Elder Sabey (son #1) - happy times! |
This
week has been real good. The weather was an overcast basically all week so
biking was soo nice. We had some pretty dang cool stuff happen this week.
Finding: Well we were trying to contact a referral the sisters gave us and we got a
little lost along the way. Any who we stopped at this one house to check our
planners and stuff and we get a prompting to knock on this door. So we do and
we find a mother with 3 children and they met with missionaries before in
Shreveport and saw how members of the church were always happy and they want
that. So we had a great lesson and it was so cool all the kids pulled out their
notebooks and took notes of everything we said and were asking great questions
and the whole family wants to be baptized! So we will see how that progresses.
Stake
conference: We had stake conference this weekend so I got to see Elder Sabey
and Elder Brimhall and we all had a great time. It was also so neat to see all
of the members in Many there. It was like a family reunion for me basically. I
love them so much. Also our stake president, President Deford is seriously one
of the most humble and spiritual people I know. Seriously talking to him just
makes you feel like a million bucks. He is just so loving and profound and
understanding.
That
was most of the exciting stuff that happened this week. It's interesting I only
have 7 weeks left. It feels like I'm going home soon but it feels like I'm gonna
be a missionary forever. It's weird. Also I talk about going home a lot but it
doesn't distract me. I am just happy here. Life is good. Natchitoches is just
not a very stressful place. I'm working hard, playing hard and enjoying every
last bit of my mission I have left.
Love
yall
Elder
Lehr
