well this week was interesting. Aunt Bernice came and that was really sorta strange. like i didnt know how to act a little bit, but it was so fun. i took them to a BBQ place in town. i tried to get them to go to the Baptist Church BBQ, but they thought we were going to get mugged cause West was all BYU-ed out. they gave me the stuff for Rice crispy treats and i made them... they were alright, not as good as yours, but they worked. i took a picture. i tried so hard, but it will get better with time right? right. one day i will be a pro.
well this week was a lot of driving. we had MLC this week down in Spring and it was really good. it was president pingrees last one, so of course he left with a Bang!!!! he talked about Spiritual Awakenings, it was really good. i so want to keep in touch with him. he might be busy being an apostle though, who knows. we also had zone meeting this friday and it was awesome. Our new STL gave me about 5 minutes to give my part of the meeting and i did it. haha got to love a challenge right. ha
one of our youth was from Korea and he is leaving to go back there this week. We went to his eagle court of honor, that was really fun. we talked to a few of our investigators that were there. it was a lot of fun. we also started to play basketball with some guy and we are now his friends. ha i will keep you up to date on how that goes, ha, but we had dinner with him and his parents yesterday. a member that was sitting next to me is kinda a jokester and whenever he would say a joke, brother Nam (from korea) would ask for a translation that then took about 7-10 minutes... he felt really bad. haha
Lauren got baptized this week. it was amazing. she was so happy and prepared. she was giddy the whole time. it was my first baptism and i did mess up a little bit. i didnt dip her down enough, but it all worked out. she was crying the whole time. Baptism is really a miracle. there is no other time where mortal humans can feel that amount of love, and God gives us the opportunity to go into the water and have all of our sins washed away so we can return to live with Him again. ahhh just so cool!!
well i feel like most of my family really forgot about me… Lake Powell, new houses, and a little baby named juniper. ha just kidding, but i hope all is going well. i am glad to know everyone is happy. i hope G-pa C is feeling better. chan, my prayers are out to you!
well a cool thing that happened this week... hmmm well, this past week we had to go buy some chocolate chips for the rice crispies so we go to walmart at about 830 in the evening, and as we were walking in i say to elder lamb "there is going to be someone we can invite to learn." so the whole time i am trying to keep my eyes peeled for people to invite, and no one even wants to talk to us. so we walk all the way down to the end of the cashiers and stand in a long line. i start to make small talk about some red box movies this guy had. then he starts asking us about the church and gives us an opportunity to testify to him. it was a cool way the Lord answered my prayer.
well yall have fun. dont get caught in a white squa and wear sunscreen... and play a round of the rock game for me!!
love,
elder Nymeyer
