That time we had a ridiculous amount of lessons

Elder Camillo Gois and I stayed busy this week! We had so many lessons and quite a few new investigators! So we have been amazingly blessed, this is the Lord's work! 
So this week, we saw a lot of rain, some crazy people, some crazy miracles and some good times.
Monday we had a lesson, with Randy, he is this guy that has come to the branch's monthly potluck for years but was always anti, and Elder Camillo Gois says he likes me so when I asked him if we could teach him the lessons he said yes
Tuesday we tried to teach a preacher which was pretty cool, this preacher has the biggest deaf church in Washington basically, almost everyone we meet is like, I already go to Nick's church, dah! So we went to try to teach him, and it actually went really well except he refuses to read the Book of Mormon, we will keep working on it
Wednesday got taught about Buddhist stuff by a CODA, pretty interesting
Thursday it rained and all of our appointments fell through
Friday it rained and all of our appointments fell through, except for Joel, Joel is awesome:)
Saturday we had no finding time because of appointments and they all went pretty ok
Sunday it rained a lot and we went to Bellingham
That was my week! Trust in the lord in everything! He LOVES you!

Mom's note:  He now knows he got a brand new niece that was born three days ago.  :)  He is excited about it.  Also I got an interesting email from Elder Schoemig concerning what is happening with the Washington Federal Way mission.  As you all know, he and three other ASL missionaries served in four missions.  This will be interesting to see what happen.  Read below about the Washington Federal Way mission.

We have big news this week Mom, as of July 1, 2018, the Washington Federal Way mission is being dissolved, which means that the Washington Seattle mission is growing, and also losing some stakes. So right now the Seattle North, Shoreline and Bothell stakes are in the Seattle mission, but on July 1 they will transfer to the Everett mission, and so will all the missionaries serving in those stakes, meaning they will no longer serve in the WSM but the will be in the Washington Everett Mission. What does this mean for me? Honestly no idea, but seeing as I am an ASL missionary and the ASL branch is in the Shoreline stake, most likely I will be transferring missions to become a part of the WEM, don't worry about it though, the 12 apostles have got this on lock so no problems, and we will have to wait until the transfer before July 1 to know for sure where I will be.
