Teamups, Football and Investigators......

Its been another great week in Columbia!

Our week was crazy. Like I mentioned last week, we had two team ups at the beginning of last week. One with one of the District Leaders and the other was with the Assistants. You learn so much when you get to work with other missionaries all on different levels. While with one of the Assistants, we were talking about prayer and got a lot of good insights about not praying in vain and how prayer, like baptism, is an outward expression of our inward commitment to God, just something to think about.

Saturday was a fun day. We woke up and went and played football at the university with a bunch of people, members, nonmembers, and missionaries. it was a lot of fun. Then we went and taught a lesson to our Korean investigator. We went and did yard work for our recent convert, Hollie. We were cutting and raking the yard. It was a lot of fun, even though I got burned and multiple blisters. That evening Pres. and Sis. Briggs were up here in Columbia for a spanish fireside. We took our Brazilian investigator with us. It went really well. After Pres. Briggs was done we were talking with some of the members and found a family that was from Brazil and some others that served in Portugees speaking missions.

Mom- I've got enough contacts right now. I'll double check for next week though just to make sure.
Dad-thats great about the temple. It doesnt look like we'll be able to make it this transfer. I was so use to being right next to the temple in Chesterfield that it was easy to take it for granted. But now being so far away, it is truly a blessing to be able to go.
Josh-make sure that between everything that your doing you make sure to take time and read your scriptures.

Well, transfers are next week. We're not sure whats going to happen. Anything and everything is possible right now, so we'll see.
Love,
Elder Egan
