Keep the battery charged

This week was disapointing for me, but seems to be going well for the elders.  I guess the reason I say disappointing for me is because I forgot to charge my phone Wednesday night and so it died while I was at work on Thursday.  When I turned my phone back on there was a message from the missionaries asking if I could go with them that night.  By the time I was able to call them back they were at their dinner appointment and they had made other arrangements.  I missed out on a great opportunity to feel of their testimony and the spirit they bring to their investigators.  Sad for me.  There must be some gosple principle that can be taught about being spiritually prepared by keeping my battery charged, so that I don't miss out on blessings.  - No, I still won't get a new phone, it's too much fun to have Elder U. and my nephews tease me about my old phone.

Great things are happening here, Elder U and Elder W were able to witness a baptism of one of their investigators and they have three other baptisms lined up in the next month or so.  They are working hard and they are being blessed for their work. 

I can't believe how fast time is going by, November is almost half over.  Before we know it, it will be Christmastime.  Which brings up a problem, I need ideas on what I can do special for the Elders this Christmas.  I would love any suggestions anyone might have.

Embarrassing story for the week... This p-day the elders came up to pick up their launndry and as they were going back down, one of the elders lost his footing and slid half-way down the stairs.  I guess he bruised his tailbone a bit, but nothing too bad, just a little hard to sit during their study time.  After he fell, he kind of laughed and said something like he liked our slide. 

That's about all for this week.
Remember to mention your missionaries in your prayers, pray for them by name.  I love our elders and will continue to pray for all of them.  The Lord is waiting to bless you, share your testimony with someone who needs to hear it.
