Well the week has been slightly slow, but there were a lot of cool things that happened.
I don't know if I ever wrote home about Shem, but an overview is:
this big polish guy stopped US and was like, praising us, for what we
do. haha! So we tried setting up an appointment to see him, and finally
just this week we saw him and taught him the Restoration of the Gospel.
Man, I love that guy. He just invites us over, gives us a bunch of food
and is all "Yes guys, eat guys! its for you!" haha in his broken English
accent.
Another cool thing was that Callum got to have his kids over after,
like, months of not seeing them. We visited while they were over and
got to meet the kids. man those kids were great, and you can just see
the joy Callum has when being with his kids. We also taught Callum and
hannah a few times through the week, and they are even putting their
names on the "Dinner with Missionaries" list!!! Haha! They aren't even
members yet!!! We ate Hannah's famous stuffed chicken, man it was SO
GOOD. I forget what she put in it, but it was absolutely amazing. Haha
We also got to see Rushi again thsi week. i don't think i wrote
about him. He's just a great guy from India who is having hard times,
but he says that whenever he sees us he gets so happy and he is starting
to pray lots and be comforted by Heavenly Father. now we just have to
work on getting him to church! Haha. But yeah its always nice to see
Rushi.
Well i had alot of pictures and a really cool video you guys would
enjoy, but... I forgot my card reader!!!!!! So i can't upload any
photos. I'm sorry everyone, I let you all down!!! :( But better luck
next week, that gives me more time to e-mail everyone. haha.
Oh and we might be playing football again in the park today. Last
week was crazy. Everyone called me "Zac Efron" for some reason, and the
name just stuck, they only call me Zac now instead of Elder B or Elder
Blue or something. Whatever haha. They call me Zac Efron cause they love
High School Musical (what the heck?!) and I said this guy Jack Field
looks like Zac Efron and he goes "Me? no way! You do!" or something
haha, so it just stuck.
Alright I have to get going and e-mail my mission president. love
you all, hope you're having a great time back home. I think I've already
sent it already, but I want to say it again. We see so many of these
members who are so happy to interact with us at church, but what makes
me and Elder Wainwright most happy about the ward is the times when they
take part in Missionary work. If you guys offer to go on splits or
lessons with missionaries, or offer your homes for FHE with their
investigator, or even give them referrals of your own, they will
absolutely love you. When the ward works with the missionaries, everyone
is happy!!!
I love you all, and what confidence that you guys give me. Until next week!
