This week was great! We are in the process of helping two people quit smoking right now and it is crazy to see how hard it is for one person to quit, then for the other person it seems like they have never smoked a day in there life and they can quit easily. The one thing that I can see to be the biggest factor in the whole thing is the support. If you have support in anything you do you are going to try harder and you are going to feel better about doing it and you will feel better about it also. We try to be there for support as much as we can but there is only so much we can do as missionaries.
This past week our new mission president came out with his new music rule and it boils down to we can listen to talks and any music produced by the church. So needless to say we have been listening to talks by Elder Holland and others. I was really bummed to hear this at first because I love listening to music but this has been a blessing in disguise as we have been listening to the talks we have seen how what the Prophets say and apply it to our investigators. So we went and bought CDs and we have been giving talks to our investigators that we think would help them out. So this week has been an great learning week too!
We have about two or three thanksgivings we are going to on Thursday so it should be a fun next week!
We also went to the temple today it is really small and beautiful!!
Love Elder Peterson
