Maybe The Weirdest Week Of My Life.....But Also Two Baptisms?????

Wow I don't even know how to start this. We left Tuesday morning for Omaha. We meet a very enthusiastic convert. I don't even know how to describe her but just wow she was kinda a lot. But she was super awesome and helped us get to the airport. Then we met a very anti lady who I'm not sure was fully there. She was calling Joseph Smith the devil and that were all going to Hell. That was fun. 

Flight went great and the sunset in Omaha as we were landing was incredible. Had the first good meal since I had my last meal cooked by my mom. MTC food sucks. Then we found out where we're going to be serving and I'm serving in the Falls Park area in Sioux Falls. Like 30 people came up to me and told me how lucky I am. Apparently it's the best area in the mission. Pretty crazy I guess. 

We had a 3 hour drive to get out here. Then I met my trainer Elder Ruddell. He's pretty sick. Very good trainer. Went straight to finding and that was crazy. Still getting used to that. On Thursday we met this lady who some other Elders found the day before and had an awesome lesson. We asked her to be baptisted and she said yes. She had definitely been prepared by God. She's awesome. She would've been my first baptisim but we met with one of the people we are teaching named Emmanuel. He's about 14. We asked him if he's ready to be baptisted and he also said yes. What mind blowing right. But he'll be the week before Stefani who's the other lady.

What a week that's not all but that's the highlights. I've met some of the coolest people ever and it's been so awesome.

Spiritual thought
1 Nephi 9:6 "But the Lord knoweth all things from the beginning; wherefore, he prepareth a way to accomplish all his works among the children of men; for behold, he hath all power unto the fulfilling of all his words. And thus it is. Amen"

 I could not be doing this work by myself. I know that if I keep my Heavenly Father by myside at all times he will guide me to the people I need to find. He has prepared a way for me.

Love you all

Another Day Another Dollar

Welcome back to another epic week in the NOM. This week starts with throwing a couch off a balcony. Let's get into it.  We finished closing the old apartment, so we had to get everything out of it.... Including the couch. We are on the second floor, and I was not about to carry that downstairs so.... We just threw it off the balcony. There's a vid in my Google photos so check it out.  Had a fire exchange with Martino who is a brand new greenie. Was pretty sick and had a lot of fun.  Got 12 people to church this week. We were told by our Mission President to invite everyone we see to church, so I guess it works. He might know a thing or two maybe. Also got the FLDS broda there. So lit. My momma had her birthday so give her a little late happy birthday to her. Also did something that would make her proud prolly. We ate some Ethiopian food and guess what, it was mainly eggs.  For those of you who don't know, I absolutely hate eggs. But I thuged it out and it was pretty ...

The Spirit Of Contention

Yo what it do, gang. Well, I don't know how to start this email. It was a great week, until Sunday.  I went on two exchanges this week. They were so sick. Me and my zl went on one. Me and my boy Bergy went on a crazy exchange, it was so funny. Did some random things. It was a legendary day for sure.  This whole week was just prepping for JJ and Fes' baptisms. They were looking golden. These kids are so elect. They were so hyped to get baptized..... We pick them up early for church cause my bishop wants to talk with them before they are baptized. Their dads go in there with them. JJ is 10 and Fes is 9, they are best friends who are both from Congo. Their dads also know each other. This interview lasts 30 minutes. Our bishop walks out and comes over to us and says, they aren't getting baptized.....  He said that their dads said they aren't ready yet. I have been asking their dads if I can do this every day for the past 8 days. I truly do not know what happened. I was so m...
