Work, Work, Work, and then Work Some More

This week was a slower missionary one. I stood up in church yesterday and passionately tried to motivate this ward to become missionaries.

Elder Herring and I are looking to find somebody, anybody to have a lesson with. Vitrolles is night and day compared to PAU in every aspect.We counted and last year there was about 11 people engaged to baptism and one thing or another happened and no one got baptized. No one got reactivated. 2010 was a ruff year here. I'll probably be spending a few months here in this ville. It is defiantly a challenge with buses and dealing with 8 to 13 villes.. 3 of which had branches in them and each having potential. It has defiantly been a challenge to prioritize.

This last week we finished out with 47 road contacts but half of them were lost because Elder Herring lost his planner. Elder Herring was also sick this week. But last Tuesday we finished off with 23 road contacts in a day which is a record here in Vitrolles.

Pray for us! Things aren't all rosy right now. I am glad that New years was pleasant. For our new years Eve party we slept...

It's hard to find time to take pictures and such because Elder Herring and I don't really have the touristy attitude right now. We normally don't really take a preparation day other than just for emails and shopping. We work, work, work and work some more hurray for work.

Well I hope all is well at home.

Love you,

Elder Garlock
