Ello!
So this week
was cool! We did go finding a lot! We have a few more investigators, FINALLY!!!
And we are visiting them on a weekly bases. So that’s great! But no baptismal
dates set yet. We will commit one of out gators tonight! His name is Julean! He’s
an awesome guy! And we have a member coming with us to teach him tonight so I’m
super pumped! Yesterday we went and visited one of our potentials. And when he
opened his door he welcomed us inside! It through me off guard cause this stuff
never happens. Haha so it was sweet! We thought him the restoration and some of
the Plan of Salvation and he is very interested! We read the whole introduction
page with him and he really enjoyed it! It all makes sense to him so he wants
us to come by next week and teach him more!! Miracles happen baby!! So heck
yes!
This week we
had 2 exchanges, one with the zone leaders, and the other one was with my boy Elder
Bailey! He’s an English man from up north; we really get along and have fun! When
we had the exchange with the zone leaders we had to drive an awful lot. When we
exchanged back I had to drive all the way to Plymouth to pick up my comp. And
back to Helston in one day, with terrible weather. That took pretty much the
whole day. Haha the other exchange with Bailey was cool, I went to his area
(Red Ruth, none as Chav City) and I went on a double decker bus for the first
time! It was so cool! We sat on top right up front! No one was on the bus! Haha
so we had fun! That day we visited a young family, on our way to their house we
ran into that family on the street.. We were thinking, do we still have that
appointment? Sarah the mother said “oh yeah we will be back in 15 minutes.” So
we decided to go knocking while waiting for Sarah and her family to get back. We
came back to her house later and no one answered, we then went and knocked some
more doors and came back to Sarah’s house and no one answered. ha-ha so bailey
dusted off his feet at her from door and we walked away..Soon after we ran into
Sarah again. Haha we asked her again if we were still going to come over, she
looked really annoyed and said "yes... come in...." hehe! :) We went
in and tried to teach her kids. Their was 3 kids ages 10 8 and 4. Cute kids,
haha they were funny as well. So Sarah was just doing other things while we
were just sitting there waiting for her to sit down so we could teach her and
her family. Haha it was an awkward 10 minutes just watching her walk around the
house..So she finally sat down and was willing to listen. She had a bunch of
questions about why God lets bad things happen on this earth if he loves us so
much. We taught her about how God gave us our agency. So it just leads to bad
things in this world, and God isn’t going to force us to live the way he wants
us to. So we taught her that, and the plan of salvation. She was very
interested! So she went from being annoyed that we were at her house to
humbling herself and was willing to listen to us and she was very receptive! It
was sweet. I bore my testimony about the Book of Mormon and how the gospel has
blessed my life and my family, and Bailey bore his testimony as well and the
spirit was just with us all that evening, and I know Sarah felt the spirit. She
said she would read the book of Mormon and really pay attention to what it
teaches and that she will pray to know the truthfulness of it. :)
It was a
great experience. But too bad she’s not in my area. Haha :(
Ps. The
picture of me and sunglasses and lookin like a fool.. Yeah bailey said
that I looked like the matrix guy. Haha so I’m dodging a bullet that’s all.
Haha lookin fresh!
Cheers to all
of you! I love you all so much!! :)
