Well, as for this week, everything has been going great. Before all the new elders and sisters came to the island me and Elder Smith planned a huge island dinner with all the missionaries. So I cooked the food and Elder Smith taught a lesson. I made those barbecue meat balls for all of the elders and sisters and some rice and also some juice! It went great. Everyone loved my meal. Well, really it was your meal mom but still. Thanks for the recipe!!
My new comp his name is Elder Taylor. He is so short lol. He is half Filipino and is such a nice humble man. He is really quiet and just easy going! He loves to work out and work hard as well so I already know we are going to kill it. He looks like David Archileta! So i always tell him to sing to me lol haha
Second we found an awesome apartment. It has two big rooms, a big living room with couches and a nice kitchen as well. We are gonna be living in paradise here. Oh and also we have two queen beds in one room so we are gonna be living like kings out here. I am so blessed. Also our land lady is a nice grandma and gave us some ice tea. We then had to explain to her that we don't drink tea. I hope eventually we can convert her as well.
Also on a typical day as a missionary we get like 3-4 lessons a day and about 4 new contacts, maybe like 1 or 2 new investigators. On Elder Taylor's and my first day in our area we had 7 lessons, 24 contacts, and 8 new investigators. Our new area is gonna be awesome and I am excited to work hard and turn this area around.
Also it is so awesome because we do a ton of walking. And I love it so much more then riding in a car. We walk up steep hills all day long and I love it. It feels like we are working out all day.
Anyway that's about it for this week!!
Love all of you guys!
Elder Dixon
