“Wow.” That’s how I started my letter to President Anderson today. I had a great day. In the TeleCenter I got four referrals after getting in touch with only seven people. One of the people I talked to was already a member. One of the reasons (the main reason) is that I prayed to have the spirit with me tonight. Amazing what improvement comes when you enlist the help of Heavenly Father. My performance went up by a factor of four. In half the contacts I had twice the referrals. On confirmation calling I helped a lady learn that the Book of Mormon does not replace the Bible, so she accepted the missionaries. I totally had the spirit. When I got evaluated I got a great report.
I got a letter from Ken today; it was awesome. Also I saw Celeste Smith today – she’s going to Brazil, Rio De Janeiro. I believe Ken dated Celeste in high school – I can’t figure out where else I would have known her from.
I will talk about Elder Nix tonight. He is from Sacramento. One time when I was talking to him he decided that he had a bunch of referrals for Ken’s mission. Today he was talking about the fact that he has probably met Ken before. I love talking to him because he has such a keen mind. I was surprised to find out that before the mission he was a skinhead. What a change. He is the only Elder not going to St. Louis. He will be going to Jackson Mississippi. What an asset to our district.
Statement of the day: “One day one of us will forget both of them (our coats).” (figure that out)
