August 9, 2015

Dearest family and friends,
This week will be a short email. So most of this week was spent trying to see people who either weren't home or were busy when we got there. Not super exciting, but it kept us busy...
We started on a service project as well that will probably keep us busy until I leave Devonport. So a couple weeks ago we got a referral from a member for a lady named Shirley. She knows the member pretty well and has come to church in the past. We went and met her a while back and she was pretty nice. She seemed like a very busy lady, especially for someone who doesn't work, so we asked if there was anything we could help with. She replied that we could help her clean up her house because it is a mess... And man was she right! So Friday Sister Zhang and I went and helped clean her kitchen. We spent two hours doing dishes, vacuuming the floor, and cleaning off the table. Next time we go back we are going to help her start going through one of her rooms that is filled with so much stuff that you can't even open the door all the way.
Probably the highlight of our week was finding. We were really blessed to find some great people who are willing to have us back. One of them is Wayne. We knocked on his door and he just happened to be home sick. We started talking and he told us that one of his good mates from high school is from our church and he is pretty keen to learn more. He also started talking about how he plays gridiron and is planning on moving to America next year to play college football. So we had a fun talk about football and I also told him to check out the Meet the Mormons movie because it shows the head coach of the Navy football team on it.
Even though this week was a bit slow, we had a lot of great things happen. I hope that Heavenly Father continues to bless us and help us get someone here progressing!

Love yous heaps!
