Week 20: BENT KNEES AND A DISEASED COMPANION!!! 12/10/2018

Wassup my friends? How ya'll doing? Another really quick week has come and gone here in Tulsa Oklahoma! This is my 20th p-day writing to ya'll! So this upcoming week is the last full week of the transfer and I am in awe because I feel like I just barely got to this area. Not to say that I am going to be getting transferred again, but it certainly does not feel like I have been in Tulsa for about 5 weeks. I'll make sure to tell ya'll what happens when we get the phone calls. My companionship with elder Hammond has been going great! We have grown solo close and it would be awesome to continue to serve with him if I have the chance! I have become more familiar with the area on a daily basis and have formed great relationships with the members!

Soooooo this week was pretty awesome! I visited a doctor on my knee and received a brace to walk with for the next week before a follow up appointment. The doctor I went to is actually a member of the stake presidency in my stake and we also had stake conference this last weekend and he has been checking in on me. Still unable to tell what the problem is so they're given me a few weeks to see if the pain will ease. If not, I might have to be getting an MRI. The pain hasn't been too severe since the first part of this trial, but there is a weird clicking sensation going on every time I bend it that other people have told me is not normal. But I think I will be ok! Apparently I'm not the only one going through this right now. My mission president did the exact same thing on the exact same day and in result of that, he is getting surgery this week. I guess his is a little bit more severe than mine!

Well to push that aside, this week was pretty good for the most part. So there has been a sickness that has been going on in throughout the entire mission. I experienced it a few weeks ago. My companion is experiencing it currently. But that didn't stop us from an awesome week. We had a miracle on Tuesday. We went to eat dinner at a members house who are grandparents who have full custody over two of their grandchildren, I don't know the details behind that, but it was the first time meeting them and one of them, who is about 11, told us that she wanted to be baptized! That doesn't happen to much to us! It is very exciting and I can't wait to start teaching her! Stake conference was yesterday and we had a general authority attend from the seventy! Everyone seemed pretty excited for that! We had interviews with President again for the 3rd time. Just goes to show how quickly this transfer will be wrapping up. The members are still feeding us daily. One member felt sooo bad when she had to cancel our appointment that she gave us 100 BUCKS to go get dinner with for the two of us. We can get like 3 meals with that! But like I said the members have been totally awesome.

Well, I am sooo thankful to be starting another week here in Oklahoma. My mission so far is something that I can't trade for anything. I learn day by day! That is the glory behind it, that there is always something or someone to learn from. And I can't wait for that to continue. Ya'll mean the world to me! Love ya'll!!

Love,
Elder Weese
