District Meeting and Interviews with President Bennion

"Big plans on Wednesday: Manhattan for the Temple Trip! Originally I thought that it would be on the 17th, tomorrow, but its on the 18th, Wednesday. I'm pretty excited. We'll leave in the morning, probably around 8:00 and get back around 5:00. We've gotta go to the mission office and get MetroCards for the the trains and then head into the city. The Train will take us pretty much right there. I'm excited. NYC is THE Place. "
"Oliverson is by far one of my favorite companions. We get along great. We've got a lot in common. Hunting, fishing, outdoors, he had his own landscaping business too. We teach great together. "

"We got a couple of new investigators last night. The cousins of a family Oliverson was teaching out in Riverhead. We met them last night. We knocked on the door and they let us right in. We just talked last night. We didn't try and teach anything, just got to know them. Their names are Heather and William. She's Jewish and he's Catholic. At the end of our visit we told them what we were all about and they said that they would listen but that they were'nt really interested. Thats okay, neither was the family at first that referred them. We'll see what happens. We never would've gotten in the door if we were just tracting, thats why referrals are so helpful. Wish us luck. "
