Im a little dissapointed.  I just got this ward to start walking on its own. I called out the young men. My ward is actually starting to do missionary work after a lot of pushing and shoving. This week i went to visit the young men in our ward and i found three of the five active ones in a house playing video games. I asked for their help finding less actives and they blew me off. When i was leaving i talked to the young girl who lives there about another less active we are working with. One of the young men left as i was talking to her and she asked him when he would help us. He said he wasnt interested and i asked him why and he said because. Then i said well im glad you think that salvation is a joke. He said yep thats right. I got mad at that. Its rather frustrating when the people who should help you the most dont do anything at all. Other than that my week was great. The members are actually starting to fill the lunch calender and they are doing their best to help us.

However the Lord knows what he wants and i wont argue it. This means that i only have two more areas left. Sectretaries always stay for six months. We always leave the mission three weeks before our visa runs out so i only have 8 months left. Crazy thought huh?
