Hoppy Easter, late..

Hey everyone!
 Happy late Easter! So this week was good, I'll start off with answering your questions. So with the car, they're not getting us a new one, were waiting for the car to be fixed, which will probably be another couple weeks or so.  Every time we ride past the body shop on the bus we see our car in the same spot its been since the crash. So we''re just walking, riding bikes that members let us use, or use the bus. Man, riding bikes in the rain here isn't so fun, the rain's super cold, but i'm sure the rainstorms there are warm.  The ward here is awesome, super nice and love the missionaries. Lots of missionary minded people, and there's a good amount of members here in Ketchikan. There's a good amount of helpful members, we take one kid who is going on his mission this month to lessons. A lot of good people here. We're fed almost everyday, the days we can get to their house on bikes or bus we go eat with them, the rest we have to cancel dinner because we can't get there. But there are lots of members that will feed us if we ask them to. So were fed almost everyday. If we aren't we just eat like macaroni or top ramen or soup or something in the apartment. So we're well taken care of here.   And there are tons of totem poles here, some really cool ones. I'll have to take pictures of them. And we are working with some people here. Our main one is Kodie, a kid whose a golden investigator. He used to be taught before he came to alaska, then he was praying about the church when he got up here to know if it was true, then the next day Elder Satini and his previous comp ran into him at Subway. And he told us he wants to  be baptized and all that good stuff. So hes our main one. Then we have a few others that are hard to catch at home, and a good amount of less active work here. And so we just need to get things going here, its hard to find people that are interested here.And we havent done to much brainstorming as a district to find new people, the only thing weve done is a fast and district tract. So for the tract wed all tract at the same time, since were all on different islands. And I dont know why people arent really interested here too much, its gotten pretty warm to the point where were sweating pretty hard from biking. Its like 50ish here right now. So nice and toasty and sunny. But people are in such a better mood when the suns out, it changes people I swear. But patience is definitely a virtue, Ive definitely learned that on my mission, with the people in wards and areas. That's awesome that youre having such good weather down there! Its been great weather here lately too, lots of sun and not much rain!
    So the island of Metlakatla was awesome! Tons of natives there, its actually a native reservation so natives were everywhere. I was definitely the minority there, at the church there were some natives one day and I was the only white person there, same with the senior center. So, the people in Metlakatla are part of our ward, so that's why there were no bishop/branch president at the priesthood session. They call in and listen to our sunday service every sunday. We talked to the guy that was with us in the picture about yesterdays meeting, he said there were 11 people that showed up, then left after sacrament meeting. And I guess that's alot of people for over there. And only about 5 or so people each week that show up normally. So that guy and his family, then a couple more people haha. I don't know how they got a building over there anyways. So Im not sure how many members are over there, mostly less active members, I don't know tons about the members over there. I guess there are priesthood holders there, we met a few return missionaries that are less active. Apparently not alot show up for anything though. It's pretty much just one active family then a couple more members, and primary is the mom teaching her kids every week, and I don't know about the rest of their sunday. They call in every week though, that would be the worst. But there's definitely lots of work to do over there. So hopefully we can get over there again soon. I wish I could tell you more, I only know what I experienced over there when I went. Ill give more info about Metlakatla next time I go.
   Now I'll tell you about the week haha. So it was good, lots of walking, biking and bus riding. You meet some interesting people on the bus, super interesting people. And Easter was great,we ate dinner with 2 families, one of my favorite families in the ward and with the ward mission leaders family. Super fun! Not many interesting Easter traditions, same as everyones back home. We went into jail to go visit a guy. Super cool and nice guy, too bad he's in there. His 3 kids were just recently baptized while he was in there. So Saturday night we went and visited him.  Hopefully he gets out soon. Also, weve been setting lots of stuff up for this week, lots of visiting people. And we've been able to see lots of people who we haven't been able to catch at home, so that was good. Biked/walked up lots of hills, I despise hills now. And yea, we tried to have another lesson with kodie but he was working, we're gonna have it with him this week though. So this week was good, hopefully things start picking up. Anyways, sorry it's not more detailed, but I gotta go, Love ya guys!
