mom,
what a fast week. this was week 5 of the transfer and it flew by. I will try to hit some of the highlights of this week for ya.
we are really making some progress with all
of our investigators. I think I am really getting a hold of this
missionary thing... until transfers come, then its a whole new story. we
went to a pool party where all of our investigators
were at (because most of our investigators work for a member in our
ward and it was her party). So, of course, we crashed the party rocking
our suits..... without the coat. they are really fun. I love being able
to work with the investigators and members this
close. I love how missionary work is changing. it is really getting the
ward involved with everything. the ward I feel is going awesome.
so a funny story that happened this week.
elder su'a and I were going to the business of a member to check up on
them and to grab some waters. Wel,l we say our goodbyes and they send us
with some waters to go. as we leave I call for
a water and elder su'a tosses me one... as soon as I catch the water
and turn back around I hear a loud thud. elder su'a took a face plant
hard on the concrete and I just started to bust up laughing. he tried to
play it off like nothing happened but that didn't
work out. ha he is a goof ball.
so remember last week when that crazy Baptist
lady was trying to say I wasn't a Christian (still a little bit
bitter), well a miracle came from that. so as we were being drilled with
bashing questions, there was another lady next to
me. she wasn't saying anything, I thought trying to tune us out. well
when the CBL (Crazy Baptist Lady) left we talked to the quiet lady. we
set an appointment up with her for last week. so during the lesson she
says that she has been looking for a church
for a long time. she was going to a lot of different churches, but she
is always too skeptical that they never had all of the answers. so when
she was listening to our "bash session" with the CBL she was saying to
herself "wow that makes a lot of sense." it
was just cool to see how the Lord is working on everybody and in the
craziest ways to lead them to find the gospel. I have plenty of stories
to back that up.
well the family sounds awesome. sterling and
ariel sound just great. good luck ariel on finding a job and finishing
up school. Sterling, I am glad you are liking coaching football, sounds
like they really need you. Lace and chan, keep
working hard. you are super parents, june looks so adorable. I try to
show off my niece to everyone over here. I am a very lucky uncle. Dad,
your life is always so busy, football sounds like a ball. I wish you
could see football down here. it gets really intense,
though the schools in my area aren't very good. its still a packed
house on Friday night. Mom, I am glad you are enjoying life. its cool to
see that Ty Hampton is the new YM pres. we sat in on a YM class
yesterday... let me tell you what, I was fixin' to lay
some smack down on them boys. I am glad our ward is not like this one. I
am glad to hear thor is doing good in puppy prison. ha GGC, I am glad
you guys are feeling better. thank you for the card. I should be going
down to the temple store this next month.
ha love ya GGN, I hope you guys are doing well. thank you for the
occasional notes. I love them. Uncle Luis, you are the best. I love
getting updates on your family.
Yes, it is my birthday this Saturday. my gift?
Thomas S Monson will speak for me... Lots! ha I don't know if we are
going to do much for my birthday day. some members know. I know that we
are eating at member’s house 3 times on sunday...
yea..... that wont be good for that weight I am trying to lose. which I
am doing pretty well. 3-5 pounds a transfer. it can be done. ha if I
still get to make birthday wishes. my favorite knife got a chip in it. I
was devastated. I am still using it. maybe
new shoes. a tie is always something I will love. I am just living the
dream. well life is good over here in mag town. love you all so much.
