holla family,
it is so good to hear from you guys. life
sounds like it is so going good for you guys in Tucson. I will tell yall
about what is going down in Mag-Town. so this week was just way busy.
we are starting to really get the hang of this whole
thing. Su'a is getting good, really catching his stride. that makes
missionary work a lot easier. we are seeing the hand of the lord in our
work. Here’s a couple of stories to show that.
so we got a call from our ward mission leader.
a non-member moved in to our ward. they were involved in the ward where
they used to live. so their old ward called my ward, our YW leader got
their phone number. Here’s the catch... she
got a new phone and lost the number and only knew generally where their
house is. so we, as the missionaries, get sent to go find that one
house in a huge housing development. yeah..... its kinda like looking
for a needle in a haystack. haha we looked for
about 3.5 hours and gave up. well this week they called the YW leader
again, so we now have their address and phone number. funny thing....
they didn't even live in the area we were looking in. they were building
a house and it will be done in a couple of
weeks. so the lord knows...
another cool story. I was on exchanges with
the ZL, in a walking area... way different from the country I am used
to. so we were walking to a member’s house cause we didn't have any more
set appointments. the street we were walking down
was really busy and elder Brooks looks at me and says "this will be
our 'power hour' activity." not even a minute later I look across the
street and see this huge black man waving his arms trying to talk to me.
I take a closer look and its Mathew pitman. remember
him.... from Conroe? he was the huge black wrestler. We cross the
street and talk to him. when I get there, the first thing he tells me is
that he is fully active. telling me that he is teaching a class for
single dads at the church and is planning on going
to the temple. he just couldn't stop thanking me for never giving up on
him. it was really cool to hear that from him. another family me and
countrys reactivated is also going to the temple, so that is just super
cool.
Well, the family is awesome sounding.
Sterling, you rock. haha and super busy. I hope everything is going well
with you. Lace, the books are awesome. I am still working on those you
gave me. I have finished about 2 of them. so I think
I am good for now. I will send them back when I finish the bulk of
them. I have some things to send home like sterling’s shoes and some
belt buckles. does JP need some boots??? ahaha little kids in boots are
the cutest things ever. haha dad, super busy. I
hope you are going good. don't stress out too much. everything works
out, you pay your tithing. ha chandler, haven't heard from you in a
while. I think you are alright. Grandparents C, I hope grandpa will be
better, that doesn't sound good at all. everything
will work out.
Okay, so a story before we go. so on exchanges
it was a Friday night. you know what that is, Game night! let me tell
you, Texas Football is exactly what you think it would be. we were
walking by a high school around pre-game and I look
inside the stadium (no lie, that place was huge) it had a small
jumbo-tron, both teams had inflatable things to run out of, the bands
had Semi trucks to carry their stuff, there was a yellow Lamborghini
outside in the parking lot.... yeah... its kinda a big
deal around here.
Well, I love all yall.
