The Game Plan

Well this week has been really wonderful. Now that we have the maps updated in our area it makes things easier to know where the members, part members, less actives and DNC's are. We have been more effective and loving the work here. It has been a bit difficult to know where to go but when we have relied on the spirit we have found great success.

We are grateful for the members in these wards. They are so keen on having us teach their friends. We get 2 referrals each time we have a dinner appointment with a member. It is really wonderful to see the excitement in the ward. I truly love these wards so much. The ward mission leaders of both wards are wonderful. They are excited about their callings and bringing new ideas to the plate that are really exciting. We have great ward missionaries as well that are always willing to help us.

We met with a few less active this week and a couple part member families. We set up some appointments for this week. I am really excited to meet some of these part members. There are a few of them that could really accept the gospel. We also went through our area book and found all the people that looked like they could have some potential. That will be a main focus in our finding efforts this week. We have about 40 people on those lists that we are going to try and visit this week.

We are also going to start meeting with Steve this week. We are really excited for him. He is a wonderful young man. We hope that the spirit will be able to guide us on what we have to do to help him overcome his problems. We will start to meet with him twice a week to prepare him to be baptized.

We are so grateful for the Bishops of our wards. They have made things great for us these past couple of weeks. Thank you for letting me know about PEC. We will ask if we are invited to ward council. Thank you for taking the time to help figure out the second ward boundaries for the sisters. We are very grateful for the opportunity we have to work with the sisters. We are excited for this new change.
Love Elder Butler
