Battleship Texas

Hi y'all

All is good here in Texas! Didn't get to meet with Nicole. We fasted that someone would listen to us and that Nicole would be there at our lesson, but it fell through so we dropped her. All our appointments with her has fallen through. So annoying. 

We haven't seen Delos in 2 weeks unfortunately! We miss that lil guy. 

Went to Battleship Texas last p-day! It was so fun! We met up with some other Elders and took a tour of the place. It was a legit battleship that had been used in WWII. It was even in the d-day invasion so that was really neat. We got to go in it and all about the deck. Then after we went just on the other side of the park to the memorial. It's a huge monument like the Washington monument. We took an elevator up to the top and got to see a cool view. I finally broke and got a belt buckle. I must be a Texan now weird huh! 

We had zone conference Wednesday in Pasadena. That's about thirty minutes from Baytown and basically Houston. Afterwards we drove back to Baytown and met up with a recent convert from Beaumont, who I had become close friends with last two transfers. He took us out to Cheddars. It was really good! I got a lemon pepper whitetail fillet. Yum! His name is Rudy Ramirez. He is super cool, and actually lives closer to Baytown than Beaumont. About twenty minutes from us and an hour from Beaumont, but how the boundaries work he is in the other branch. He wants to come out with us to teach sometime he is off work! I feel like we will be lifelong friends! 

Riches and I have been working really really hard this transfer...but we are having no success whatsoever. We've tried what we think is everything! But no solid people has come from our hard work. We have gotten so much rejection lately. It's tough. So pray for us that we will find someone who is ready to hear our message! Tuesday we got rejected almost all day. Only got to talk to one person just briefly. 

Riches and I have been obsessed with talking like president Monson. We don't know why we just think it's funny haha. 

Last night our branch put on a fireside for the Elders Quorum. It was set up to be like the school of prophets, a reenactment kinda. They split us up into three groups and we had three classes where our  groups learned all about the priesthood. One we learned about the Aaronic, then the next was  

Melchizedek, then we learned about the oath and the covenant and some other stuff too. It was really cool. President Rascon was there and all sorts of cool stuff! 

Hope y'all have a great week and are doing good. Love you
