this week has been a slow one. elder tekanene has been having a hard time. he is getting transferred and luckily for me he is still willing to get up in the mornings and ride our bikes to the track and me run while he sleeps on the bleachers. he is such a great missionary.
we had a lesson on tuesday with our investigator and she just was not ready for it. we taught her about the tree of life in 1 Nephi 8. it did not go well. not that the lesson was bad it was just that the spirit was not present during that lesson. the only time that you could even feel a smidgen if the spirit was when we just flat out told her what our purpose for being there. no bueno. after that we just didn't have a great week. we had an investigator not follow through on an appointment we had and so we weren't able to have a lesson with her and so we set one up for this tuesday (tomorrow) and hopefully we can help her get to the waters of baptism.
i really hope that this next week will be better. transfers are on the 15th so i'll have a new comp by next monday. im really sorry for such a short letter but there really wasn't anything much going on this week! here are some pics of our district with out the sisters cause they had to leave early from district meeting.
i love you all so much and can't wait to hear back from you!
love
Elder Jens Smith
