So our 9 year old that we are teaching is so awesome!! He loves every second of it! we just taught him last Tuesday and hes already on chapter 13! he loves it....
so our other investigator Jim went through something kind of weird...we have been trying to teach him the last 2 weeks but he said hes in a really bad situation and cant see us.. so finally one day he texted us and asked if we could teach him..so when we got there he told us what was going on...so apparently he rented one of rooms out to a lady who was on Crags list..(not sketchy at all right?) so she was crazy and they found out she was schizophrenic...he said he would just sit in his room with a knife because he was pretty sure she would kill him...so the cops were always at his house...but anyways, we taught him the Plan of salvation and he was super confused..he thought we were talking about reincarnation and we were like omggg noooo! haha it was so funny! but he gets it now and he loves it! he said our religion is so fulfilling! its true!!!
okay this is the best and funniest part of the week!!! so the other day we were going to the church to set up for the Halloween party and one of the members said there was some random person in the chapel...so we went in to talk to her, she was just sitting there reading a hymn book...so we introduced ourselves and stuff. and after we kind of talked to her we realized she wasn't all there...but i shared Moroni 10 (Moronis promise) and she was bawling through it! then she wanted to come to church... so before we left we asked if she wanted the lights on or the ac on...and she said well its your church i don't care...so we were like okay! see yah sunday! so we set up a ride for her because she lives far away..then later we got a voicemail from her saying..."hey sisters its me Thressa, so because you asked me if i wanted the lights or ac on, that means you're not a real church...so im not coming anymore..." we just kind of looked at each other and busted up laughing! it was so funny!!!! so because we were being nice, that means were not a real church!? oh my goshhhhhh people!!!!
you know what the best thing about being a missionary is?
1 when members see you at a food place, they buy your food!
2 you get ALLLLLL the drama! people you don't even know will tell you EVERYTHING!.....i find out some real freaky things from people no one should ever know haha! but i dont know why...i guess when you're a missionary people trust you more, so they tell you everything!
3 watching people grow in the gospel is SO COOL!
Guys..dinner at some peoples homes are SO FUNNY! we were at one members house and i swear i thought someone was going to get shot! first of all, during dinner they had a hedgehog at the table, second of all their trash can is a dumpster in the middle of their kitchen, third of all they were all yelling at eachother across the table. i couldn't even handle it, it was so funny!!!! and then we tried to share a message with them, and you could tell they were trying to be nice and respectful, but they couldn't handle it and it was CRAZY!
thanks for all the support and letters from everyone! transfers are coming up in a couple of weeks so my address might be changing!
i love and miss y'all!
