Personal Revelation.... I just suck at it (from August 6, 2012)

What's up yall     it's a good day because it's P-DAY and it's always good if it's p-day hahaha

Dear President Jergensen

  It's been a great week with a good exchange with Galesberg. I went out with Elder Beck and it was a good experience to see how his training is going, he's doing a very good job. They are working on getting a couple of their investigators a baptismal date as they are able to make it to church.
  We have been trying to help Delores with her progression, and she has a strong desire to be baptized, but it will probably take more time since she is living with her boyfriend. Elder Manwaring and I had a good Plan of Salvation lesson with her this past week and she enjoyed church this Sunday. On Wednesday we will be teaching her the Law of Chastity and seeing where she is from there.
  Dedra has been diffucult to contact this past week and so we will try as hard as we can to get her ready for an interview on Saturday and ready to get on the path towards baptism.
  I'm learning tons and I'm excited for the meetings this week which will boost the motivation missionwide.

  So it's been a fun week with an exchange out to Galesberg which is a drive of about 45 minutes. Out there is Elder Beck who is in the training process of a young elder. It was awesome that area has a lot of potential and has seen like 8 baptisms in the past year or so and it looks like they are going to be getting some more. We then had district meeting with that district out in Kewanee and that was a little bit of a hastle. There was a ton of road construction in those little narrow corn field roads and that made for a wait of about 25 minutes in our sweet mini van haha

 

We have to leave town today for a zone leader council in Iowa City tomorrow which will take up a majority of our day. To prepare for that we have been coming up with a zone report and all the necessary paperwork and that's quite the hastle when you don't have much time to do much at all. Our week is filled with exchanges with areas that are about an hours drive away and with meetings and preping that we only have so much time to acually go out and work that it's kinda taken some wind out of my finding and preaching sails. We usually pray over a map and really see where the Lord would have us go to find one that is prepared to hear the message. Usually a prayer will be like this. " Heavenly Father we only have an hour to find this week, where do we need to go to find someone to teach"? It usually turns out good and feel inspired to go to a certain street to find. How can I improve on my Personal Revelation??
