On Tuesday we headed 2 hours down to Saskatoon for a Zone
training meeting, and it was pretty great. I love Saskatoon, it's a
pretty city. But when we were heading to lunch, our truck started
squeaking and we didn't know what it was, so we called our vehicle guy
in Winnipeg. He said it was probably the bearing in the tire ceasing up
and we would have to replace it. Mind you, we're two hours from Prince
Albert and have no idea how to get around. But we went to lunch anyways,
and our tire almost came off, so it made for a good time. Basically
what ended up happening was we switched cars with some elders down there
so they could get it fixed, and we could get back to PA. I felt so bad
for them. But they got my truck.
Anyways, for lunch that day, we all ate 1 LBS burgers, and then we died. It was no bueno.
We had a pretty good exchange this last week with the other elders on Thursday. I went with an elder in my district who's been here a while but not as long as me. His name's elder
Hanson, and this was our 3rd exchange. It was pretty great. One thing
that was interesting is on Wednesday we had two appointments, and they
both rescheduled to Thursday for the exchange. That was weird. But the
exchange showed me that my street contacting skills are still pretty
sharp.
Couple more things: This last weekend we had a huge
ward service project out in a small town called Birch Hills, it's about
half an hour south east of town. but what we did was we re-shingled a
members house out there. It was a lot of fun. But their house is big,
and has a lot of peaks, so we're not even done, and it's taken two days
of work already! wahoo!
So This last sunday was mother's day! Yay! Happy
mother's day to all you mother's out there. Every day should be mother's
day so we would remember to show our appreciation. I know with my Mom, I
wouldn't be here without her. Obviously, I wouldn't be born. But
besides that, she's nurtured me, and raised me right, so that I'm here,
serving the Lord. Thanks for everything Mom! Love you!
Thanks for everything that you guys do.
Love, Elder Jake Sorenson
