I enjoyed this week a lot. Monday we went with our branch president to talk to one of our investigators and her partner about marriage! So they got the forms and everything, now we just have to wait at least 30 days for them to be able to tie the knot as the saying goes. After that we had an awesome FHE with a member family, the Tokarahis, and the Clarks, (the family whose son we baptized a few weeks ago, the dad is a returning member and the mom is investigating the church). Brother Akee, our branch missionary was there too. We (the missionaries) did a lesson about the gospel of Jesus Christ (faith, repentance, baptism, confirmation, endure, etc) and then the Tokarahi's pulled out a game board and some skittles and said we were going to play "Don't eat ice cream" but then Sister Tokarahi said it's the same thing as Don't Eat Pete, but since she had to draw the game board herself she just changed it to ice cream. But as soon as she said the words "Don't eat pete" it was like a locked chest of memories in my head was unlocked and I suddenly got all these memories about playing that game with the family and things. I didn't even know I remembered about that game. But yeah, crazy.
Wednesday we had trade offs with the Zone Leaders so I was with Elder Moncur from Boise for the day. Did some good work, and after we traded back me and Elder Hausia were able to get a new investigator.
Thursday Elder Hausia had some really bad pain in his side, and so we called the medical senior missionary and he said it might be appendicitis, so we went to the doctor, waited for a long time, got in and they did some tests, it was funny though because Elder Hausia's never been to the hospital before (so I don't know how he got his papers in) but it was funny to watch his face and his reactions to the tests and all the stuff the doctor made him do. Funny guy. The next morning he had to get an ultrasound but by that time the pain had gone away, but we had to wait for the results for a few hours and when they finished they said they couldn't actually find his appendix in the ultrasound, but since the pain was gone and they couldn't find anything wrong they figured he was good to go. Saturday we did some service for a less active family, and yeah overall it's been good.
