To War! Crownpoint's going to war!


Funny: There has been a call of war sounded throughout the land of Crownpoint. We were growing these lovely flowers by our door and one day we came home and one was gone. We were confused at what happened. Well we learned when the other flowers vanished that it had been ground squirrels that ate our flowers. So, we have declared war! I got the chance to go on exchanges with Elder Asher the District Leader. We spent our language study speaking Navajo to each other and hunting squirrels. We shot one with the blow dart gun we made but it wasn't a good hit and it ran off with the dart still in it! This week we will be victorious!

Spiritual: This week was an interesting one. We had a tough start of the week. We learned that a few of those that we thought were very elect were actually just acting so they could get church support and in reality, wanted nothing to do with the Gospel. It was sad. But God blessed us greatly for our efforts. On Sunday we had a lady come who had never come and who we thought never would. She came late but loved it. We went by that evening and she told us that the church meeting had answered a question that had burdened her for 10 years. We invited her to be baptized and she agreed! She is on track and is now doing great!

Where I am at: Well I am staying and so is Elder Viola. We will be joined by Elder Sorensen. It was a fast transfer and I feel that next little while will also fly by. But until the end we are working hard and enjoying each other’s company. Life is so good here in the best place on earth.

Have a fantastic week
Elder Black
