Dear Woodward Family,
Greetings from Woodward, Oklahoma. I guess that it wasn't a ZL prank because here I am in Woodward. I haven't had time to take a picture yet because we have been so busy here. There is a lot of work happening here. We have quite a few super solid investigators that Elder Park and I both feel could get baptized this transfer. The first two are Jeff and Shaquinta. They are both super awesome! The first lesson I taught here was with them. The missionaries had been meeting with Jeff for a little while now, but this was the first lesson Shaquinta had been there for. So we ended up teaching them the Restoration. The lesson went really well. After the lesson was done I found out some pretty exciting news about Jeff. Jeff is from Haiti. I was really excited when I found this out for obvious reasons. You are probably all pretty excited about that as well. Then yesterday both Jeff and Shaquinta were at church.
So Wednesday was transfers. It was a really long day full of driving. 2 hours from Wichita Fall to Moore, then another 2 1/2 hours from Moore to Woodward. Then we got right to work. Normally after you get to your area after transfers you take a little bit of time to go to Walmart to get some stuff to last you until Monday. We had so much happening on Wednesday that we didn't have time to go to Walmart. It was a very crazy day but we made it through.
Friday was District Meeting so we drove all the way down to Clinton for that. We were able to ride down with the Senior couple who is here in Woodward. So that saved us a lot of miles. We got back from District Meeting about 3:30 and got straight to work. Both of the appointments we wad set up that day fell through so we went to visit a less active member named Jed. Jed it a super cool guy. Most of the time we were there we just sat and listened to him talk. It was a really spiritual experience though. He has been through some rough patches in life, but he is pushing through that and turning his life around. He even came to church yesterday. From what I have heard he has made a lot of progress over the last couple of months.
Sorry this is kinda a scatter brained letter. There is just so much that has happened that since I got here that I am just writing it down as it comes to my mind. I think that is just about all for this week though. Next week will be a little more organized. Well I love you all.
Love Elder Woodward
