My Thanksgiving was good. No we didn't celebrate anything here because Thanksgiving is all about when the Pilgrims came to America. The people here know nothing about Thanksgiving Day. I did not have a big dinner. I only preached the gospel on the holiday. I am grateful for my family, my blessings, for my body that God has given me to be able to walk 6 miles a day and preach the Gospel. I am grateful for all the people here and for this opportunity to serve God for a little while.  Everything in my life I have because God has blessed me and I am thankful for everything.  This is my first district.  We have transfers on Dec 3rd. I love having photos of everyone and the people here love seeing you guys too. 

Funny thing this week on 15 different occasions or more, I lost count, I have been told that I look like the guy from Rocky, the Russian. One guy even pulled up a photo of him on his phone and everybody looked at it and then me during the visit. Everybody says that. It's pretty funny.Today I woke up and I was freezing. It rained last night.  It was just freezing, cold wind and rain this morning. I miss basketball so much but I love playing soccer.
We had a great week and had 5 investigators come to church.
