Hello everyone! Finished another week of missionary life and it has been good! This week has been a full of a lot of ups and some downs as well but that is what happens with missionary life.
Tuesday 6/17: First p day in the mission field. Today was actually super fun we went to this playground and one of the bishops house and it sounds dumb but it was so so fun and we played a ton if games while we were there. While we were there we were playing this golf game and out of no where 2 Moose just pull up outta nowhere so I was just chilling by a Moose for about 30 minutes.
Wednesday 6/18: Today we did a ton of stop by's and as we were doing them we ran into somebody named Justin. Justin used to be a member and had some questions about our religion and how everything works based off of what be read about the Bible. So we said we would stop by again and answer whatever questions he had for us. So wish us luck as we go back to him this week.
Thursday 6/19: Today we got a call from a missionary who had served here about 3 years ago. He told us about someone he taught when he was here and so we went over to that person house and his name was Bobby and Bobby is super nice and loves the Bible but we found out he has had a past with drugs and some experiences with members in our ward. So we are going to do our best to turn his life around. So prayers up.
Friday 6/20: today I went on my first exchange to fairbanks and it was so fun. I had asked Elder Collins if he was good at solving rubix cubes cause he had one sitting on his desk. He then walked me through how to solve one and made me do a rubix cube for about the next 6 hours and I am still confused about it. But it was a good day and it was a lot of fun.
Saturday 6/21: Today went and did what we call "OYM" which is just "open your mouth" and so we walked and found a guy looking for his cat that he had lost and he was nice. We then went walking around and ran into him again and had a conversation with him and found out he was Pagonist which is like something I've never heard about but anything we tried to explain about the gospel he would take out of context and flip around so it was kind of a waste lol.
Sunday 6/22: We did stop bys before church and found someone who was atheist and told us he "had some books for us to read" because he does not like the church. And I thought he was getting a little more mad at us than I think he should've but we then went to his neighbors house who is a very smart guy and talked with us for about an hour about how God has changed his life and loves talking about it.
Monday 6/23 today we had district council which is supposed to be an hour and a half and our meeting went for like 3 hours and it was brutal sitting there ngl. We did serve for our friend penny and moved a rug and some furniture for her and she was very nice and kind to us so that was worth it. And then we had dinner at a members house who is from bountiful so that was something we were able to talk about and I thought was cool.
This week was a solid 7.5/10
Also shootout Elder harper for the spaghetti this week.
Feel free to email me back! I would love to talk to all of you!!
