Things are getting a little busier because of Transfers and a new policy that come out from the District Presidency that says that no one is able to travel alone anymore. So it's been like a big brain teaser/puzzle call it what you will, to get people to where they need to be. And there has been a lot more critical thinking and planning involved. Just barely had a cool experience like 20 min. ago in the office, a guy came in and started asking about our church and we talked to him about the Book of Mormon and he said he would read it and he even wanted a few more that he could give to his friends. And a little earlier at the super market buying groceries, a man stopped me and asked why we were here and said he would like to meet with us and learn more. One more quick, last night we had the goal to place a Книга Мормона and we weren't having a ton of luck. It was close to the time that we needed to get back and it looked like we weren't going to give it to anyone that night, but I said that guy right there, one more chance before we went home. He took it! You need to find and email Michael and Lisa Kelly and tell them how great their son is. He is so patient when I have questions and need help and he is just the best. This might be a surprise to you, but there is actually no snow here yet! But like you have said, i need to start getting serious about buying things. Well we gotta get going, I love all of ya, wish you all the best this week! - Love Elder Bennett
