What's up guys!!
This week was strange so it was a good week! It is finally
showing signs of cooling down which is a huge blessing, I rode my bike to an
appointment without showing up to their house completely drenched in sweat
for the first time since like April, sick! Fall is the worst season as a
missionary though because it's football season:/:/ </3 Just kidding serving
the Lord is better than watching football!
This week we picked up 3 new investigators!! Tim and Felicia
are a younger couple that we originally met a couple months ago while helping a
member move, they are awesome! We went over to their place and taught them the
Restoration with Landry and it answered a ton of questions they had! I'm super
pumped to teach them the Plan of Salvation too because Felicia has a ton of
answers about religion that the Plan of Salvation will answer! The Plan of
Salvation is legit! The other investigator we picked up is Tina and she lives
with Iliassou, she is from Sierra-Leon. Also we got in with Howard again and we
had a sweet lesson with him! We taught him about Lehi's vision of the tree of
life and it related really well to him in his life. He told us all the things
in his life that are like the people in the "great and spacious
building" that are trying to draw him away from God and he made a game
plan on how he can hold on to the iron rod. We had a bunch of investigators
that were out of town all week too, people go on vacation so much out here it's
crazy!
It's time for the funny moment of the week that would only
happen on the mission... So we saw Carlos (he's our gay investigator) again for
the first time in a while and he invited us in while he was cleaning his house
(at 8 oclock at night) so we asked him what he was cleaning his house for so
late at night.. He told us that he was throwing a birthday party for one of his
friends and that they were going to have a cookout the next day, and he invited
us to come. Of course we went because missionaries love cookouts! First thing
we saw when we walked into his house was a table completely full of vodka,
tequila and just about any kind of alcohol you can think of! A few steps into
his house later we discovered that everyone there was gay and it turns out that
his friend that he was throwing this party for happened to be his husband... So
we politely got some food and hung out with a bunch of wasted gay dudes and
then bounced out A$AP haha!! They didn't say anything about this when I signed
up for this mission thing!!
Have a good week!!
