Oakwood Week... I don't even remember

> This week was kinda boring but exciting at the same time. Well I finally got a bike so thanks to my parents! Love you guys! It rides really smooth but it did take a little adjustment but that's normal. We finally got in 2 new member lesson with Dyutoe so he's just that much closer to being done. We invited him to our dinner with the Bishop and met with him on Sunday at the Miles house then had lunch afterwards. This guys testimony is so strong in the gospel he almost makes me look like the recent convert! He's awesome.

> Last week was transfers and we got like a whole new district! Elder Butterfield and I were the only companionship that stayed together. We got a new sister and 2 new Zone Leaders, and a new district leader. A lot of change, but I've served around the new Zone Leaders when they weren't ZLs and they're both super dope!
>
> Easter was super good! We had 2 dinners(in true missionary fashion)! We probably could've had one but we told one dinner that we had an "appointment" about 2 hours later, we just didn't tell them what kind of appointment. LOL whoops ;) We had so much food and so much leftovers. It's super nice. we're set for like the rest of the week!

> Well that's really all I got! i hope y'all have a fantastic week and continue to grow in your faith of our Lord and Savior!

This Week in Oakwood

> This week we were hecka busy. We finished going through the whole area and visited all the less actives. A lot weren't home but a lot of them were home! We talked to a couple families about General Conference(which defiantly feels like it was yesterday and not a week ago) and ended up talking to 3 or 4 families for the whole day. It was pretty awesome!
>
> Yesterday we had an "open" sacrament meeting. It was kinda like Fast and Testimony meeting but we were instructed to give our feelings about Conference. Kinda near the end our recently baptized convert, Uydoe(you-dough) got up and bore a super strong testimony about how General Conference was one of his converting tools, and how he had already defended this church to his Uncle and Aunt. It was very powerful and spiritual!
>
> That's really it for this week! I hope you all have a fantastic week and continue to grow in your faith of our savior!

Conference

>
> This week went by super fast. We stopped by all the less active in our area and reminded them to watch General Conference. We got Francis to watch it but we didn't watch it with her. She said she enjoyed it so hopefully we can start to teach her.
> That's really all for this week. Have a fantastic week and continue to grow in your faith of Jesus Christ
