Hello Everybody! This week was a little slower than last week. A lot of our plans and lessons fell through too. Ugh, oh well. We hitched a ride with a member down to Dilley again to teach our investigator down there. It was really fun, and our Investigator is doing great! His work schedule won’t let him come to church but once a month, but he's reading and praying and doing his best. The Investigator (Ed) who was supposed to be baptized yesterday didn’t show up for church. We had a really hard time meeting with him last week too. Hopefully we can get him back on board and get him re-committed.
We had the cops called on us once, just because we parked our truck next to a paranoid guy who had his house robbed a few days before. He thought we were the robbers coming back. We ended up talking to him for a little and the cop that came too. It was pretty cool :)
On Sunday we walked in to Ward Council meeting and were informed that we had to give a talk in sacrament meeting! So, short notice. The High Council speaker and his 2 other speakers thought they were speaking next week, and at a different building. So he was the only one able to make it this week, and he asked us to fill in the other two talks! AH! haha 14 months without giving a single talk isn’t bad right? I think I did pretty good! Elder Johnson ended up giving an awesome inspired 15 min talk, and shared like 3 scriptures and a short testimony then sat down, and the High Council rep talked for the remaining 7 min, So yes, Elder Johnson talked longer than the main speaker haha. It was a good talk though. Good times.
Other than that I don’t have any crazy stories. We did allot of knocking and finding new investigators. Next Sunday we get our Transfer calls to see if were leaving or staying... I've been here for four and a half months... so I'm probably leaving :( but we’ll see were the Lord needs me I guess.
Thanks for everything guys, I love you all.
