Alli's letter

Well alot has changed since the last time I wrote you. Well let me tell you the big changes. I'm still in Pleasant Ridge but with a new comp. His name is Elder Mills. Something that is way cool is when we were walking in the meeting to go meet all the greenies, I knew from the beginning who my comp was even before President called him up so my revelation has been on fire and the kid that sat by me Elder T Smith I called his companion for him too. He was impressed. Well a little about Elder Mills he is from a family of 5 with his parents. He has 2 sisters he is in the middle. His dad is a manager at this huge computer company. This kid is a stud he is way chill and can teach so well for how young he is. He is teaching at a level where a normal missionary is teaching in a year and a half on their mission. It is a great blessing to be able to train him. Well just to get you caught up on this past week. My last few days with Harwood were awesome. We went and visited a couple members he wanted to go see. We also went bowling for our last P-day. We had everyone there. There were 16 of us and we bowled for 5 hours non stop. We bought unlimited passes for everyone so we were getting pretty good. My highest score was a 179. I was on fire it was really fun there should be pictures coming soon!
Well now let me fill you in on the work. Currently right now Jeff is on for Feb 9th and Gloria is for April 12th so 2 committed we had a very spiritual lesson with Gloria yesterday and we found some concerns she had. We should be having a great Sunday this week because she is coming. Well we are on our bikes all week and we definitely have been using them. We rode for 7 miles in the rain yesterday and it was so cold. But for some reason it was so fun because Elder Mills is not used to biking yet so he is a little slow. But he will get better. Well we decided to knock some doors where we knew a couple of hispanics would be. We knocked about 8 of them we got into a guys house named Francisco. It was the first Spanish lesson I've taught in 8 weeks. It was great. It was directed by the Spirit because I have not practiced Spanish in awhile. I know the Lord wanted me to be able to speak with boldness and power because my comp needed to see that I could speak so he will have confidence in me. It was such a great understanding and experience for me to speak with the gift of tongues. 
Some pretty exciting events that happened this week we were sitting in this apartment lobby waiting to be rang up. Well this lady was too, but she had no one to let her in. So she snuck in because her grandma did not answer. Well pretty soon after that the ambulance pulled in I told Elder Mills that I bet her grandma died. But I was kind of joking... well it turns out she did die. So we waited to talk to her. We asked her if she needed any help "crazy eh"
