We couldn't walk that fast even if we ran!

Hey Family,
                   This week has been a boring one. On Tuesday we had zone meeting and they changed our zones again so now we have a big zone. It was a good zone meeting though. It was all about how we need to talk to everyone and how we will be surprised who will listen to our message. After zone meeting we went on exchanges. I went with Elder Mourino in our area and Elder Oveson went with Elder Bell in Lakeland. We went finding and had a good time talking to everyone. Elder Mourino is a very awesome outgoing person. We had lots of fun and went to the Orey's that evening and had dinner with them. On Wednesday we went and exchanged back. It was Elder Oveson and I's bike week so we walked around a lot and talked to lots of people and gave out lots of cards. On Friday we went to see this guy named Michael. He lives in Southaven and works in West Memphis. We went in to his work to see if we could get his number to give to the Southaven Elders. We ended up talking to him about random gospel related stuff for like 3 hours. It was good but left us with like no time to see anyone else. After we finished taking to him it started raining so we got the other Elders to come and pick us up. That evening we went to go see a play that lots of the members were in and Sister Walls directed the play. It was about how Santa became Santa. It was really good considering that the actors where 3rd graders, 5th graders and a few 7th graders. Saturday we tried to see some people but no one was home. We ended up going to see Michael again because he wanted to tell us something. When we were getting ready to leave we said a prayer then he wanted to pray for us. He gave like this 10-15 min prayer. He is Pentecostal so his prayer was kinda strange. At church on Sunday the Teeters gave their first talks. It was very good and Sister Teeter talked about angels and how we can be angels to others. Then Brother Teeter talked about the Priesthood and how it can bless us and our families. After church we went and gave the sacrament to Sister Rushing. She is 91 years old and is still with it but she has a hard time hearing. She is cool and has lots of fun stories.

                   That's about it for my week. It was good but fairly boring. I'm glad to here y'all had a great week and I hope y'all have another great week! Know I love and pray for y'all.
Elder Talbert
