The Colorado Springs Mission is awesome! I got here last Monday, and I've been having a great time! On Monday and Tuesday, I stayed at the Mission Home, and did some orientation stuff with the Mission President, and the AP's. I also had the chance to go out with missionaries from the surrounding area and tract. On Monday I went with Elder Ault to a trailer park by the Stake Center. The first door I ever knocked on was a members trailer, so that was cool. No one else opened their door, and there were huge dogs everywhere. It was cool. On Tuesday, I went with Elder Jensen to the neighborhoods around the Stake Center. We talked to a lot of people, and found that area a few potential investigators.
I met my companion, and found out my area on Wednesday! My companion is Elder Talbot. He's really cool. He's from Atlanta, Georgia, and he knows Connor, and the rest of the Day's down there really well, so that's cool. I'm serving in the North Eastern zone of Colorado Springs right now, and its great. I can see the Air Force Academy, and the mountain NORAD is in from my area. The area is great. My companion and I have already reactivated a less active family, and their three kids are scheduled to be baptized on June 30th! Their names are Ashley, Daniel, and Brittney Penley. They are really awesome. Brittney is only 11 years old, but she has so much faith. It's so cool to see. Daniel is 12, and he loves to be outside. He loves camping and riding bikes, and playing basket ball. He is a ton of fun. The whole family is great. I've been having a ton of fun here in the past week The people here are so awesome! The members are great too! We serve two wards in my area, so we get fed by the members almost every day. I almost never have to cook for myself, which is a huge blessing. I don't know what I would do if I had to cook dinner for myself every night.
My address here is:
Elder Samuel Day
4090 Center Park Drive, Suite 4
Colorado Springs, CO 80916
That is the Mission Office address, so anything sent to me needs to have my full name on it. Thanks for being so great everybody!
Sincerely,
Elder Day
