Hey, Everyone!
Rochester is such a party! It's so weird being sent from a huge, spread out branch to a super close city where you see at least one other set of missionaries every day. But Elder Timothy and I have been a bunch of fun. It's still hard for me to talk to random people on the street, but now I have to worry about talking to people in malls!!! It's genuinely terrifying to me, but hopefully I can get over that.
We haven't been able to do a lot of teaching because we haven't been able to get in contact with any of the people the last Elders were teaching. But, we found one new person whose name is Taylor. We had a good restoration lesson with her, and she said she had even been to our church before. She even straight up said she believes Joseph Smith is a prophet. She says her family is having a lot of different issues of health and monetary means, so if you guys could pray for her that'd be awesome.
Now, the best part of the Rochester 2nd Ward is the fact that we've been getting fed every night so far! It's crazy. There's a lot of fun families here, so it's been fun trying to learn names of the little kids in different families that have us over. There is always a sweet spirit when we get to share the little message with them at the end, and the kids actually want to listen and participate. I pray that my kids can be like that someday, but I won't hold my breath.
You guys have an amazing week! I'll keep grinding and I'll hopefully bring some better news next week!
Love y'all!
Sincerely,
Elder Buchanan
