Super cold but we have been on bikes the last couple days. We are working on finding the people who have slipped through the cracks lately. We were able to find a whole family that lost contact with the missionaries when they moved from California to a house here in the middle of nowhere. We found it and talked to them. We are going over this friday! It will be a good opportunity to involve people in this ward. They really want to do missionary work.
It's snowing today, I am not too excited for tomorrow morning when all of the slush turns to ice haha. But it's pretty now. It gets bitterly cold here, but with bikes we stay pretty warm once we get going. And have earmuffs. Without those it would feel like a piece of ice grating across your ear as you ride against the wind. Not fun!
But anyways, this week has been really good and this next week is shaping up to be stellar!!

We have a 6 zone zone conference, so probably about 100 missionaries out of 170. It will be good to see some friends that I haven't seen for a while.
One message we have been sharing with members focuses on Alma 6:6. When we gather together, as the body of Christ, in prayer and mighty fasting "in behalf of the welfare of the souls of those who [know] not God."
Who do you know who is only kept from the truth because they know not where to find it?
What can you do this week to help them grow closer to the truth, to prepare the soil for the planting of the seed of faith? Do you need to clear the land? Discard the rocks? Fertilize the soil? There is a small and simple thing that we can all do to help those around us!!
So... in the words of my favorite member of the LaBeouf family, JUST DO IT!!
