March 25, 2013 - Davenport

Dear Family:
 
Well it has been another good week in Davenport.  Me and Elder Bankhead have been working our hardest this past week to get the work moving in this area.  We got a new investigator this week.  She is the granddaughter of a member and has expressed interest in learning.  She was unable to come to church yesterday and neither was our golden investigator but it is all good.  We did have two of the Zone leaders Investigators in our church meetings but that does not really count since they are not in our area.  This past week me and Elder Bankhead have been getting really familiar with the bus system in town.  I dont like the bus but my companion loves it.  It is a big headache to do planning at night since we need to figure out which bus we need to take but it is better then walking everywhere, especially in the more darker parts of town.  We have also had more funny experiences with the bus then with the car.  So on our way back home on the bus Elder Bankhead talks to this old black lady and she asks for $5 from him.  He pulls out a $10 and he says that is all that he has and he gives it to her.  Well we got off and Elder Bankhead wanted to eat out so we went to A and W.  After he ordered the manager comes up to the cash register and gives him a discount.  She then looks at him and says:  I heard what happened on the bus.  She had heard from a guy that came in what he did and he got blessed for it!  It was very awesome that it happened to him.
 
Well we will be moving back to riding on the bus this Thursday.  We are hoping that we can work as hard as we did this past week.  It will be hard but with the Lords help I know we can do it.  Everything is just going great.  Love you all and I hope you all take some time this weekend to thank God for the atonement that his son went through.  It is a great and very beautiful thing in this world.
 
Sincerely;
Elder Spencer Ariotti
