Alright new scenery, (the dirt is slightly more red, thats it!) New faces (same last names), New trailer!!! Holy cow it is nice to be able to stretch out my legs and I can actually walk around and take showers. Showers are beautiful.
I am in Tuba City, Arizona and I also cover Red Lake which is about 20 miles away, we don't go out there often. There is TONS of work in this area. We found 10 new investigators this week...that's the most Tuba City has EVER received. Hopefully this week we will be able to put some people on date. Other then that everything is back to normal rez life I love it. Flea markets and plenty of drunk people and sketchy experiences.
We are in a ward but from the attendance that I saw yesterday I don't think it really should be called a ward. The Hopi branch has more attend. Speaking of Hopi I cover a few Hopi "neighborhoods" and oh man it felt so good to talk to them again. They just open right up and are so friendly most of the time. There was one guy that was so excited to learn more and he wanted to know the similarities of Hopi stuff and LDS like right then and I just threw out all of this junk and ya...I should be a used car salesman. haha I also was able to talk to some Hopi from when I served there and meet relatives of people I know. Good times for sure. I am going to enjoy my time here for another 5 weeks and then I assume I will be moved.
GO BRONCOS. I don't want to hear any of this "only if we had our quarterback" stuff from BYU fans....a loss is a loss and W is a W. There is no "only if's" in the gospel and since baseball and college football are closely related to the gospel there are none there either. Good to hear that. I am happy that I will be home for bowl season.
My companion is Elder Lake from Seattle. He is a huge Seahawks fan so we get along well. Funny guy, he has only been out 6 months. He talks sooooo fast I cant understand him sometimes people look at him like whaaat? ...then I realized that he was from Seattle area and then I made the connection that when I was first getting used to Doug being around I couldn't understand what he was saying either....he's from that same area so it must be a northwest Washington thing. No offense Doug:)
Having fun in Tuba City and am going to work it out good for the last few weeks. When december hits thats when I will probably be freaking out a bit.
Love Elder Christensen
