⚡️🌩⛈️ 🦐



Hello Everyone, hope your doing amazing! 
This week was honestly just a normal feeling week! We found a good amount of people and had a some good lessons with them aswell! 

Tuesday was my pday last week, and we just went to the church and played basketball and volleyball like we normally do. We also went to Wendy's, and said the words "Slam Dunk' and they gave us free fries and a frosty. 

Wednesday: Did a lot of finding today which is always good! Had dinner with some fun members. Nothing crazy today! 

Thursday: Me and my comp found a new park that has a really cool place to skip rocks. We also discovered that there were a ton of crawfish at this place. We quickly went to the dollar store and bought a net and a bucket. It didn't take us long to catch about 12 of them. Then we were invited to a Lutheran study, and it was kinda hard to listen to some of the things they said, but it was a class and we wanted to be respectful. After the class, we talked with the pastor for a bit and just asked him questions about some of the he talked about. Let's just say he wasn't very good at answering any of our questions.

Friday: Did some service at at homeless shelter. We found an interesting guy named Zudland. This claims to be a visionary. Did some more finding and made some calls. 

Saturday: We met this guy Zudland at the library, and we wasn't as weird as we thought he would be. We gave his a book of mormon and had him download the gospel library app. I swear this app is like his favorite thing now. He texted us after we met, and asking us questions about David Bednars talk. We were surprised that he was exploring the app, but it was so cool too. Then we helped some members move a carpet real quick and helped them give a blessing to their daughter. 

Sunday: So Zudland and his friend came to church and it was fast and testimony meeting. He wanted to go up and share his testimony. So my comp went up with him and they both shared something. Zudland started talking about the number 40 and how he has almost figured out what it means. Then he started talking about harlots and how he doesn't know there names. Finally, he said he knows this church is true. So he might be a tweaker, but I think this guy genuinely knows that this is the true church. Then some swahili kids wanted to go up and share their testimonies also, but they wanted me to go up with them. So me and the 2 kids went up and shared small testimonies on Jesus Christ. It was super cool to see these kids share what they know to be true.

Weather Report: The weather was pretty trash this week. Rained basically everyday, and on Sunday there was a big thunderstorm and literally was shaking the earth. I had to helped put some bikes on a car after church and it was absolutely dumping. I was only out there for like  3 minutes but still got completely soaked. 

Spiritual Thought: 
3 Nephi 12:15 -16 
15 Behold, do men light a candle and put it under a bushel? Nay, but on a candlestick, and it giveth light to all that are in the house;

16 Therefore let your light so shine before this people, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

Don't hide the light that God has given you! Share you light with everyone!

Week 9 beacuase apparently I skipped a week

Monday: We went to a rec center to play some basketball. Then after we decided we wanted to do some sprints. Right before we started, this huge group of little kids came into the gym and were told by their teacher to sit silently against the wall. So all the little kids were just starring at us, so we decided not to do sprints anymore. Maybe next week.  Tuesday: Nothing crazy today. Went to Culvers.  Wednesday: We had a Thanksgiving dinner with a family.It was super good. The family is on date for baptism so that's good.  Thursday: Thanksgiving!!! It was a super chill day. Had one lesson with a member then we went to a members house for dinner. I was a little sad to find out that they had 2 huge huskies, which means they had dog hair all over there house. It was insane. That wasn't even the worst part. The hair was all over in the food too. It was horrible. One good thing was that we got to watch the last half of the Cowboys vs Cheifs game. I was happy to see the Che...

  Hello everyone!!! It's been an awesome week!  Tuesday: I woke up at 3:30, and headed to the airport. It took 2 flights to get to Milwaukee. Right before me and my MTC comp got on our 2nd flight, we talked to this lady and ended up giving our first Book of Mormon away. It was pretty cool! Also, apparently you can't have liquid in your carry on, so I had to throw away pretty much all of my soap  . Wednesday: I met my new companion, his name is Elder Rupert. He's pretty cool, and he's a hard worker which is good. If your wondering what he looks like, just picture Elder Marshall . I found out my first area too. I'm currently in Marinette Wisconsin. I'm like right on the border of Wisconsin and Michigan, so im constantly going to both states. Also my companion can't drive, so I've had to drive, and boy this place is weird is with its stop lights. I've took so many wrong turns too. Its horrible. Thursday: My first full day as a missionary in Marinette. W...
