Fasting

Hey all,

It's been another long week. Days of all 0s on key indicators are getting kinda old. I get that people are busy, but keeping appointments is the polite thing, y'know? Ah well. It can't be helped. At least we're talking to a lot of people and hopefully being a good influence. We met a guy this week who wasn't ready just yet, he says he's too angry at God right now, but he'll listen someday. He swore a lot, but he'll be really prepared when he talks to missionaries again, I'm confident. We gave him a pamphlet with our number on it, so maybe he'll get a hold of the missionaries in the future.

We also got a referral for a guy with a lot of members in his family. He finally decided to take the discussions and read the Book of Mormon, but he just had back surgery, so this week really didn't work for him. I think he'll be a good guy to teach.

Our one investigator with a baptismal date came to church! He's the one with autism, so it's hard for him to come unless his mom comes too. She's normally really sick, but was able to come this week! I think they had a great time and will work hard to come again. Both of them have some walking troubles, so I'm glad we were able to find a wheelchair.

Right! I forgot about the wheelchair! Last week we were out tracting and there was a yard sale going on that we stopped at for a minute. They had a wheelchair, and we'd been looking for some for the church. It was in good condition, so we asked how much it was, and the guy told us 20$! We were blown away! He asked us what we wanted it for, and we told him it was for our church, and he was all "Take it then! It's free!" It was so cool. There are a lot of good people here who are living the truth that they have, but just don't quite see that we can give them more. It's disappointing sometimes, but I'm glad to see everyone isn't miserable and mean.

Last night our car wouldn't start. We were just about to head home, too. We eventually got a member to come jump it for us, but it took a while and was kinda boring. It was a little chilly too, so we were sitting in the car listening to Teewee tell us every couple minutes that our battery might be low. Thanks Teewee. Teewee is what they use to make sure we're driving safely. It yells at us if we go too fast, or accelerate, turn, or brake too quickly. It makes sense, but sometimes it's just like "Teewee we're trying our best why do you yell."

Fasting yesterday was cool. We didn't have any incredible miracles besides our investigator coming to church, but I feel better. This week will go better.

God be with you!
