This week went by fairly slow, but it was still good. Since we are low on miles near the end of this week, we decided to do a lot of map work to get to know the area better. For hours, we also put in the addresses for the GPS, since last transfer, the previous companion here used her GPS and not this one.
We had a good lesson with Tina this week, and we taught the Book of Mormon.
We had a miracle lesson this week! One evening we called some potentials and one of them was Curtis. We scheduled an appointment and the appointment didn't fall through. We brought a ward missionary with us (who was 18) and the lesson went well. We were able to schedule another appointment. Later on, we talked to the Elders about this person, and they They told us his name was Alston, and his last name was Curtis. We described this person and they said it was the same person. We even talked about the living room and what was in it. The Elders told us that they haven't been able to get a hold of him for weeks. Sometimes, when a person is taught by Elders for so long, sometimes they just need the Sisters to teach them to get baptized. I mean this in a way that when someone just needs to be taught by the another set of missionaries in order to get baptized.
There was a baptism on Sunday and Sister Brakey and I made the program. We didn't teach him but I've heard that this ward relies on the missionaries for a lot of things.
A good experience:
I experimented with making home-made chocolate pudding in the microwave (gluten free/ dairy free). It has saved me about 13 minutes (it takes about 15 min to cook it on the stove). I love chocolate pudding.

I have 57 days left (9 weeks) until I'm home!
