This was an interesting week for Halloween, first off it snowed at least a foot and got to -4 degrees, Thermals in-gauged! Met a member who has a lot of medical issues and he has been ignoring us (and everyone) for a while, but finally we got in to make sure he is ok. It was really good connecting with him.
For safety Missionaries go in to our apartment early on Halloween. During the extra time I found myself with, I suddenly discovered that I had I finished the Book of Mormon again from 3 Nephi to the end that night it was sick!! Starting my studies on the Doctrine and Covenants for the first time I am enjoying it a lot.

So that means that so far in the last 6 months I've read the New Testament, Book of Mormon again, Our Heritage, Half of the teachings of Joseph Smith book, and I'm up to Samuel in the Old Testament, and all the way to section 20 in D&C.....Since when do I read so much?
Teaching at this moment isn't exactly happening, there's presently no one to teach. But we are trying our best to help out our less actives and members in their testimonies. I felt that this transfer would be for this purpose and It makes me happy to see them grow and progress, then share their light of Christ with their loved ones.
The other night a family had us for dinner and made these really AMAZING RIB RACKS!! and homemade chips that were fantastic. They have two little kiddos, they are super smart 6 and 5 year olds. They both go to french school and they taught us a little bit. During dinner the Daughter called Elder Bowman a "Big Girl" it was cute and he had zero response to that one haha.
Last night we were walking around Down Town and a lady yells from across the street, "Hey do either of you guys have a cigarette?" We yell in response "No, do you know anyone who would enjoy a message of Jesus Christ?" She was So confused! it was hilarious "Wha..what?" .....Priceless!
