What's good everybody. This email is coming on a Tuesday
because we got transfers this week so it pushed our p day back a day. Whenever
we have 8 day weeks we call the Monday we work on miracle Monday just to hype
everyone up. It is a grind though because it's an extra day before p day so the
whole day just feels super longggg. My comp and I decided we needed to hype up
the rest of the zone so we made a hype voice recording of just motivational
speakers. It was super hype!!!
Tuesday we played basketball with the youth and you already
know my comp and I balled out. Felt like church ball all over again. We also
found our friend Ray who I'd super elect. She had some questions about the book
of mormon and the curse the lamanites get but we were able to clear that up.
She is super open to learning more about the gospel.
Wednesday: we were able to meet with James and talk about
baptism with him. He's been taught by missionaries in the past but his wife
says that this time he really wants to commit and become a member
Thursday: we were finally able to get back in touch with
Andrew. He went off the grid for about two weeks. Apparently he's been on that
training grind and he still wants to baptized. His only problem is he smokes so
our goal is once he stops smoking for 2 weeks he can get baptized
Friday: we had a lot of street contacting!! Not many ppl
wanted to talk to us but the people that we did see we really were persistent
and tried to get them to accept a message. It was a lot of fun though because
elder Dennis and I just made games out of street contacting.
Saturday: we talked to a ton of people but nobody wanted to
listen to us. We were able to talk to Andrew again about his struggles.
Sunday: GAMEDAY!!! Andrew pulled up to church and so did
Mark. If everything goes well then they both should be baptized next transfer
which is so cool!! We also talked to this guy named Dustin. This was one of the
most interesting conversations on my mission. My boy started talking about
Greek mythology and how the pioneers couldn't have made the temple in salt lake
because they didn't have electricity. It was so weird but homie said he would
pray about the book of mormon so it was a dub
MIRACLE MONDAY: we talked to 65 ppl and nobody wanted to
hear a message about Jesus. Kind of an L. But then we pulled up to a come
follow me study group with our friend Mark and brother Washington gave us some
good food so it was alright. Then we spent the night at the other field club
elders apartment and just partied all night.
That was my week. Transfers are this week and elder Dennis
and I are running it back in field club so that's lit!! We gonna go crazy next
transfer. This transfer went by so fast and I'm just so grateful to be out here
serving God and being apart of the greatest work!!! Hope all yall are staying
safe! Love you all!!!
Elder Clemons
