Hey
everyone,
I’m still adjusting to
my new assignment. It's going to be a tough one. It turns out that I am a
fixer. I am sent to areas that need extra help. This area has no missionary
work happening right now; the members have a bad taste in their mouths from
previous missionaries and it's my job to change that.
My companion, Elder
Riggs, knows American Sign Language (ASL) and is here to interpret the meetings
into ASL for the 2 deaf men in the ward. It is already making a big difference
in the lives of these two men. They are very happy to have him here and to be
able to really learn what is being taught in church.
Our Ward Mission Leader
is really awesome. He got back from his mission maybe 2 years ago or so. He was just recently called to the position of Ward Mission Leader, so together we are going to remake the missionary work
in this ward.
I still don't have any
funny or inspiring stories; just getting lost a lot, on a bicycle, in the heat.
Hopefully we can get things to work out.
I think that is all I
have for this week. Take care everyone.
Elder Kirk
