Chicken Coops and Centerville Contacts

Dear Family and Friends,

I had a week full of missionary work and it was fun. However, on Saturday we cleaned out a chicken coop that was fairly gross and I smelled like poop afterwords. We still went to McDonald's after the work and I was pretty hungry after sweating buckets in that oven of a chicken swamp. Our investigators are doing well. We have three awesome investigators in Centerville. It is always fun to go down there, but what a drive. We are on the fifth week of the transfer already, I can't believe it. My scripture this week is 3 Nephi 22:13.

13 And all thy children shall be taught of the Lord; and great shall be the peace of thy children.
Thanks dad.

Love,

Elder Blazzard

Exhaustive Missionary Work That Will Persist

Dear Family and Friends,

It was a busy week and I am exhausted. I hope all is going well. We had four investigators at church this week which made the entire work for the week amazing. One of our investigators started the stop smoking workshop yesterday. She is doing great and comes to church every Sunday. We had a lot of member help this week and it has been fun working so close with the branch. We have a branch party coming up this Saturday, so while you all have a get together (Blazzard), so will I. We helped three people move this week and my back did well this time. I wasn't too happy about the heat and humidity though. I had to call TiWi, the car monitor system, because our unit in the mission vehicle has not been tracking our service since May. Oh well, it is always fun talking to tech support. Have a good week, love y'all.

Mosiah 27
25 And the Lord said unto me: Marvel not that all mankind, yea, men and women, all nations, kindreds, tongues and people, must be born again; yea, born of God, changed from their carnal and fallen state, to a state of righteousness, being redeemed of God, becoming his sons and daughters; 26 And thus they become new creatures; and unless they do this, they can in nowise inherit the kingdom of God.


Love,

Elder Blazzard

Investigators at Church

Dear Family and Friends,

It was an enjoyable week for me as we met a lot people and continued to work with investigators. Very busy. We were able to provide a lot of service and it was fun. We had Zone Conference meeting this week which was good. We also had the oil changed for the Jeep on Tuesday in Franklin.

On Friday, we arrived at the church meetinghouse at four o'clock in the afternoon to set up for a funeral. It was a little crazy because we were the only ones there when the non-member family members started to arrive. It was a good service and we talked to a lot of people.

On Saturday we helped deep clean a basement. It was a little gross because of the huge spiders, but I made it through. On Sunday we had three investigators to church. One of them we have been working with for over two months now and he ended up staying the entire three hour block for meetings. We have been inviting him to attend for those two months

I had a fun week. Be safe y'all.

Mosiah 26:22
For behold, this is my church; whosoever is baptized shall be baptized unto repentance. And whomsoever ye receive shall believe in my name; and him will I freely forgive.

Love,

Elder Blazzard
