October 13th, 2014 - Hey Y'all, Again! (Oroville)

Hey Everyone!

I hope all your guys' week been good! Even if you've all been really
busy lately, I understand if y'all are. I can't blame ya for that.
Haha.

Things have been going really good here in Oroville but there has been
tons of stress lately. I'm finding it easier and easier to go to sleep
at night.Yet, there is a enough work to keep Elder Hanson and I going
and busy during the days and I thoroughly enjoy that. We have been
really successful in some areas of work, like we picked up two
investigators that use to be taught by the Missionaries a long time
ago. We've also received some referrals from the Mission Office and
had the chance to make contact with them!

We also had Mission President Interviews on Friday also! It went
really well and President Marston has given Elder Hanson and me some
really good advice about our Weekly Planning. It requires asking some
information from the Ward but I think that it will be good for them.
President Marston is great and I'm really glad that he's my President.

This week we are doing something called "Dinner Fast," by request from
our Mission President, we are to not have dinner with members unless
they have less-actives, nonmembers, or recent converts with them.
Other then that, we are encouraged to find nonmembers, less actives,
and recent converts to have us over for dinner or else we would have
to provide for ourselves. Some of the members of the Ward are really
unhappy about that and have actually complained to their Bishop about
(anyways, these families haven't even fed us once even before this
week.) . Bishop Trinnaman, however, is very supportive of this idea.

Things are going great and I'm always trying to work hard and to do
the things that the Lord has commanded. I'm tired and stress, but I am
also having fun. Take care everyone.

Sincerely,
Elder Paul Willis
