Week 32. MIRACLE MONDAY MOTIVATION

 

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!!!
