Never thought I'd actually send an email out on time but hey here I am! Motivated to write my email! Anyway how's everyone doing? Hope yall have been doing very well! Time just keeps flying by, we are already on the 5th week into this transfer and it feels like yesterday I was driving up from Richmond to be here. What's even crazier is I hit a year in 1 month!! That's insane! Never thought I'd actually be at the point in my life that I am right now. I've always dreamt of the day I serve a mission and when that day came I was like this is it! And now I'm a year in and I don't even know what to think!
Anyway my week was pretty awesome! We had some good lessons and activities to fill our week! One of which was helping our friend Edwin get closer to baptism, we taught him everything he needs to know and now all he needs to go over is the interview questions! I'm so excited! He should be baptized this Saturday so that's gonna be fantastic!!!
On Wednesday we got to go teach the teachers in our ward how to be missionaries, and it was kinda fun! Kinda weird as well because I remember activities where I was the one watching the missionaries demonstrate being a missionary and now I'm the missionary! But it was really fun. We talked about what the mission can offer and all that, then we roleplayed knocking a door and having to talk to a random stranger. The kids were loving it! They definitely were having a great time and I was just reliving those days when I was a teacher haha.
Thursday was crazy! We had four lessons that day, and only one fell through! First we had a lesson with this super cool guy who has like every story you could possibly think of happen to him. He had so much cool stuff in his office too. Lots of arrows of light, bear skin, deer skin, turtle shells. He's got native American blood and he definitely lets it show! It's so cool! Then after that we went to a lesson with edwin and that went awesome of course! Then we went to a member lesson and that went well, we shared mosiah 24 with them and it seemed to be perfect for what they've been going through, the spirit was very strong in that home that day.
We also went out knocking with one the priests in our ward and that was a blast as well, he was having a blast knocking with us and we even met a couple cool people. One guy has been a gospel guitarist for longer than I've been alive and so I told him maybe we could jam out one day, so ima figure out how to have some fun with that haha. I also got to meet a member named Marc allred, who is a sweet guitarist and makes his own music, he basically has a studio out in his yard to just jam out and make songs and I was seriously jealous cause thay would be the dream! Maybe it's a sign hahah, maybe I should come home and make music lol.
Other than that, that's about everything cool that happend this week, rock hill isn't the fastest area but we are going to be baptizing someone and that is all that matters. As long as we bring one soul to Jesus christ our joy will be great, And that is what I'm living off! Anyways! Love yall! Enjoy your week, don't be stupid but "if your gonna do something stupid, be smart about it" -my dad
