Well this week was
pretty cool! I went to district meeting with my Brother tie on which Elder D Gemperline has his
Brother tie on his mission. I had my Tie Clip from Elder T and I was feeling
grand and happy for my brother to leave into the MTC that day! As I was
pondering this thought the Zone Leaders burst into my district meeting and said
quick set up two more chairs! Then the Assistants to the President walked in.
So it was fun to be able to have them a part of my district meeting and things
went very smoothly. Afterwards they pulled me aside with the zone leaders and
gave me a whole bunch of different ways I could improve. Great suggestions on
better demonstrations and time management, but especially on holding my calling
and the power that comes with it to the best of my abilities.
Then we had a pretty
slow week because there were just a lot of last second cancellations with
investigators sadly. We have had a lot of members in the ward inviting friends
to hear missionaries or come to dinner with them and stuff like that and it has
been really really exciting to see that and I was just so happy to see the
small miracles throughout the entire week.
Transfer calls came in
and I'm not getting moved and neither is my companion! We will be together a
total of 15 weeks at the end of this transfer.
I benched the most
I've ever benched in my life yesterday. I felt so buff until I went and saw the
Polynesian Fire Knife dancers. I want to look like them someday 0.o. Then I
realized my trainer looked like them. He so did. ... just minus all the muscle
and scary. :D Nah but it was a really big stress reliever. We had to have a
Less active recent convert or investigator there for us to be there and see the
show and just minutes before hand we still had no one sadly. I said a silent
prayer that someone would show and Rob gave us a call upon saying Amen. He came
and we were able to convince him to stay for at least half the show. Then a
random lady approached us and explained she was alone and lost! It was Elder
Gremillion, a good friend of mines, recent convert and I am just so glad she
said something cause we enjoyed her presence throughout the rest of the show.
there are some strong people who are willing to act in faith just as she did.
Her conversion story is FANTASTIC! She was playing a star wars video game
online when she found a clan or group called the gadianton robbers. She joined
that group because of their no mature content policy. Soon enough she was
asking questions to who the names were like Korihor and Corianton. Then she
asked who the Strippling Warriors were whom was their rival clan. These two
clans consisted of about 70% return missionares. She is now baptized. :) Video
game technology win for GOD! Anyway, the PCC dances were really cool and I love
that place and their people and shows.
Alright well I'm out
of time because of transfers today but I must also let you know that Elder V
discovered yesterday that when a mexican says a food is hot IT'S HOT! and
so delicious to me :DDDD
Alright Chill, Love
everyone. Ha be with you
