Well we had transfer calls this last Saturday evening. It was a surprise. Nothing is changing for my companion and I. He is a little upset. This is his greenie area and he will be here for 6 months at the end of this transfer. I remember Richard being a little upset when he had to stay in Lamar for that long. I loved my greenie area and was ready to stay for another little bit.
The weather has sure cooled down quite a bit. There is a weather service we are allowed to call and the other day it said it was 41 degrees at 9 in the morning. It heated up to about 65 that day. It has stayed around 70 for most of the week. It is nice to have it be a little warmer. It is a little harder to make it out the door for exercise in the mornings though.
Planning on areas to tract is getting a little harder. We have knocked a lot of the doors that are near by our apartment. The streets of temple are pretty crowded and there aren't any side walks so we try to stay off of our bikes most of the time. It is a little easier to contact people while on foot anyway. I think we will spend more time on the bikes this transfer to save some time.
We had a disappointment this week. We had a man named Clifford scheduled for baptism this last week. The day before his baptism we got a call from him. He had punched on an appointment the night before. He told us that his cousin got into an accident and he had to go take care of him so he was moving that day. He was moving to his uncle's house who is a pastor of another church. I'm pretty sure he didn't move. He has had a hard time giving up cigarettes and I think he is just embarrassed to tell us.
Other than that we had a pretty good week. We found a few people that seem semi promising. I know that if we continue to work hard and be obedient we will be blessed.
I love y'all
