From Ottawa

Well hello everyone! What a week it has been. We have been so busy with apointments and service projects. It has made me very tired. We helped a sister in the ward paint her bathroom, and we helped a family with cleaning their house for a party. They had just moved in so there was a lot to do. We have been seeing our investigators. They have had a lot of struggles come up. So we've been helping them work through them. It's amazing what people will tell you. They sometimes just pour their hearts out to you. I wish I knew how to comfort them. I guess just being with them helps.

We spend our days working with members to find investigators. We've been pushing for member missionary work. So basically they find the people and we just help teach them. I've only had to knock on doors once since I got here. Lucky for me the people were very nice! 

We have a car that we get around the area with. My area is the South side of Ottowa.

The weather has been nice. The trees are all starting to turn for the fall colors. It has been beautiful. I love this fall weather. So I hope it lasts for awhile! I hope I don't need a coat to soon!

To answer the question about the stuffed animals from when I first got here. Emily just let us use them for the night. We left them on our beds the next morning for her to pick up. It was very sweet of her! So no worries we didn't take them :)

I met a lady at the women's broadcast that knew where Roosevelt was. She said she had even heard of Altamont. So that was exciting! It made me miss home though!

I am starting to adjust to missionary life. Its coming little by little. But I know that by the time I get home it will be wierd not to have someone with me all the time.

Steph-Did you see the broadcast? Sister Burton I believe spoke some Korean :)

I love you all and hope you all have awesome weeks!
