What up guys, how is everyone doing? This week was a good week. But also a little bit all over the place. We came in contact with a lot of werid and strange people. On Tuesday we found this family that we had a lesson with. But they were a little crazy and then on Saturday we had a lesson with a member and he is actually insane. He asked me if I played soccer with Joesph Smith. And asked me if I was 200 years old. And also tried to tell us a lot of things that didn't make any sense.
We had someone try and Bible bash with us and it is very interesting what other people believe in and also think of us. And he wouldn't let us talk, he would only explain his veiws and get mad when we tried so we just left.
One of our friends we are trying to get baptized has a pretty big smoking problem. He smoked 3 cigs in 30 mins. it was actually crazy. But the next couple days we got him to promise to cut down on the smoking. so that is actually good.
We had Zone conference this week and it was good. I was able to understand maybe half. and see some Elders that I knew. Always fun to see them.
The food is still amazing, we got some treats from Momma Rose that had different kinds of chocolates with brownies and strawberries. It was amazing. We had lunch at Bishops house yesterday and he is actually so funny. And we had a ton of food. And most of the time we get dessert after and it is the best, but also different sometimes.
Spiritual thought:
This week Faith was a big part of my sudies and just what people talked about in church and ZC. And Faith is the foundation of EVERYTHING else in the gospel. It is a principle of action and power. With faith we can do anything. Examples are how the Sons of Mosiah had faith to go and teach the Lamanites, The Brother of Jared had faith that Jesus would touch the stones, Alma the older had faith that his son would come to know the truth. I know that with faith we can do anything, we can move mountains. And I strongly believe that Jesus knows us individualy and has a plan for us if we put our faith and trust in him.
Love you guys, love hearing from you and have an amazing week!!!!
