WOAH BRO ONE YEAR
So yeah, I'm in the one year club now. I'm emailing on Wednesday because they moved our p-day to today because we went to the temple today. It's the first time I've been to the temple in over 7 months because my last area was so far from the temple we didn't get to go. But I gotta say it was awesome to get to enter that Holy House once again and feel the Spirit there.
Last week we had zone conference. That was good. At one point President McSwain said something about the sealed part of the Book of Mormon and he said "that was kind of off topic but you know what I'm just gonna go for it" so he went on this discourse about what it contained and even made it to the lost tribes of israel and the second coming. It was pretty intense but it was awesome.
We have a couple of solid investigators who should be getting baptized this month. One we have to get parental permission for but every time we go to her house her mom doesn't want to come out and talk to us so she just sends her kids out to tell us she's too busy so we just had the lesson without her. That's one of the things I still want to work on though is being more bold with people.
One night we got back to our flat and we couldn't find the companionship that we share the flat with but we finally found them out back burning black magic cards they had taken from one of their part member families they're helping. That was fun, did that for about an hour because the cards were covered in a plastic gloss that made them hard to burn. That or SATAN WAS RESISTING IT.
Sunday was the first regular Sunday I've had in this area. It was fast and testimony meeting and they asked me specifically to bear mine, but as soon as they got the chance like 20 people went up to sit on the stand to wait for their turn. It got to the point that one of the counselors said we were just gonna finish up the people on the stand and no one after that could bear their testimony. That's just how solid this ward is. Testimonies are strong.
That's pretty much it for this week though.
