Week 1 in the field!! Pretty good! I have 2 trainers. Elder Droese
hailing from Ontario, Canada and Elder Jackson of Orem, Utah. The
former embarking on his 24th month of service and the latter on his
23rd so I will be sending them both home haha.
Overall good week! Big things: my first lesson was a pretty good prank. We went to an
"investigators" house and taught the restoration. They asked all the
super hard questions and my trainers deferred to me to answer. Then at
the end of a very hard hour I found it was the ward clerk and his
family haha. It was pretty fun.
We have been doing a lot of service.
Helping people moving and paint and things like that. We had a few
lesson that were fun and did some inspired knocking. Shoutout to all
those girls who rejected me! They are making this a lot easier haha.
Only really nuts thing that happened was we got flashed. We went out
to Turbeville which is like the edge of our area and no one ever
visits. We parked the car and decided to start walking. Then on the
way back to the car someone said "hey guys!" When we turned there was
a girl hanging out of her window exposing herself. They proceeded to
drive off and we didn't see them again. We just laughed and talked
about how she needed to learn the gospel.
I have found a lot of strength this week in Alma 26: 11 But Ammon said unto him: I do not
boast in my own strength, nor in my own wisdom; but behold, my joy is
full, yea, my heart is brim with joy, and I will rejoice in my God.
12 Yea, I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak;
therefore I will not boast of myself, but I will boast of my God, for
in his strength I can do all things; yea, behold, many mighty miracles
we have wrought in this land, for which we will praise his name
forever.
I love everyone and as you so much!!
