The weather has been crazy. As we were out walking on Friday we experianced rain, sleet, hail and snow all within a half hour or so. Then on Saturday when we were out and it was sunny and then it got dark and hailed for 15 min covering the ground with white, then it was gone and 15 mins. later it rained and then half hour later it was completely gone. Yep crazy.
I some ways it is easier to approach people when tracting but as members you are more in tune with what the people you interact have going on in their lives. A dramatic event or change does not always make someone question themselves enough to open the way for them to be ready to accept the gospel. We tracted into a guy the other day who was elderly and really nice. His wife had just died so we tried to share with him about life after death but he wasn't interested. I have found it works best when you are specific in what you pray for, like with specific dates and times and people and what not. But keep in mind that the Lord is going to do what is best.
We had a nonmember young single adult walk into the ward yesterday out of the blue. He is from Kayenta Az and is here for school at Univ. of NM. He hadn't had religion in his life until last summer when he started to attend the branch that they have in his home town. We are hoping to be able to teach him, which would be way awsome!
It's crazy that it's week 4 of this transfer, time is moving fast.
