Well it feels like it has been like 12 minutes since I wrote last week. Time has been flying lately, and especially this transfer has absolutely flown by. I can't believe it is week five of the transfer already.
Our zone this week did zone Olympics. It was super fun and we saw lots of cool miracles. There are weekly challenges where we get points and there are also daily challenges to get points.
Monday was Family Day in Canada which is basically just an excuse to have a day off. But the challenge for that day was to hand out Family Proclamation pamphlets. We handed out quite a bit and got a cool potential investigator. The guy was just walking out for a smoke and had a beer. He wasn't religious at all but his wife was so he told us she might be interested. It was super cool. Then we went to FHE at the hatches and played some pong with scriptures. It was a party.
Tuesday was P day and no challenges.
Wednesday was a baptism challenge or something. We dropped off a lot of cookies to some families in need. That was one of the challenges for the Olympics. We dropped off some cookies to our recent converts, they have been pretty sick recently and we haven't been able to see them. But we stopped by and visited with them for a while and then they told us to come back. It was really cool.

Thursday we had a lot of meetings and there wasn't a daily challenge but we were able to meet with a part member family that is super awesome. She is probably going to get baptized eventually. They live out in the middle of the bush though. It is pretty cool.
Friday was a fun day. The challenge was to talk to as many extra people as we can. It was really fun. I just had our area book in the car and called all the formers while we drove to Balderson. We were able to set up an appointment for the next day. In Balderson we only had like two minutes to tract and so we prayed and decided to try this house with a dog in the front of it. This lady that answered the door had a friend that was LDS and she is interested in learning more! It was super cool.
Saturdays challenge was to do as much unplanned service as we could. We got the text about the challenge right as we walked in the church and saw a family cleaning the church. We helped them clean and it was really cool. Then we met with the former investigator. He was really old and crazy. And that was about it. But the Hatches had us over for pizza so it was all better in the end.
Sunday was church. And the challenge was to compliment as much people we could besides church. We decided to walk around a park and compliment people. I complimented this guy's hat and he said he has 20 just like it and he is going to give both of us one. Then we went to the Hatches for dinner. It is amazing food.
Deuteronomy 30:8 is the most wonderful Elder Beddes favourite scripture and it is very good.

and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.
