This week has went crazy fast it was the last week of the transfer and it has been the hottest it has been in a couple years here so it has been fun.. It is interesting to talk to the member and just local people here, they keep telling us how they had the worst winter in a long time and know the worst summer and they are all expecting to have a really bad hurricane. I kinda hope it happens while i am here and i get to go help people clean up and stuff.
It has been a pretty good week though we started to teach a girl named Ashlee Johnson she is friend of Ricky Jarman, the story with her is that She wanted to learn but not quite ready for the lessons so Ricky gave her a gospel principles book and she read the first like fourteen chapters of it and then had a question on the Priesthood so we started teaching her on Wednesday and she has came to church three times now. We are hoping to set a baptismal date this Wednesday with her, so that will be really cool if that turns out.
Then on Saturday we had a pioneer day with the ward and we got to play old fashion baseball and checkers and stuff like that, so it was fun and we got to talk with everyone in the ward. Then on Sunday i spoke in Sacrament meeting with the high council on repentance, it went well i think i really did it all of the top of my head except for a few scriptures here and there and a section from a conference talk by Elder Uctdorf and i basically called everyone out to repentance so it was pretty good, i just hope the young women of the ward get it, because it is pretty sad when the members are way immodest and our recent convert is more modest then them all it drives me nuts. But the talk was fun to call people to repentance in a loving manner.
So sorry there isn't more to report on but i love you all.
Love Elder Phillips
