Hey there everyone,
Well we didn’t have anyone
show up for church this week again it was kind of a bummer, really though I
have gotten used to it cause most of my mission has been people not coming to
church for whatever reason and it has been very humbling experience and also
teaches me that sometimes no matter how badly you want to help people you can’t
force them to do anything no matter how hard you want to, I just hope they
realize what they are missing inside. We had a rough week, lots of appointments
fell through for whatever reason, people always say oh I forgot or I had to go
somewhere haha, but I don’t know, you wish they would let you know or tell you
if they really aren’t interested in listening, but I guess all I can do is keep
trying until we find the person who is willing to do things to change. We did
find a lady named (J), i think I told you guys about her, she is really cool
but she dropped us on wednesday she said in a text that she will contact us if
she wants us to come teach her, haha it just breaks your heart when you meet
someone so ready and they say not now, so hopefully she will change her mind
soon. We did find a couple people, especially a mexican family they are cool,
the daughters of the family speak great english and they are both married but
live on the same street and the dad is okay with english but the mom speaks no
english we were hoping they would come to church but they didn’t. Oh well, we
are gonna try and teach them this week and they told us that they are catholic
by inheritance and they aren’t practicing so that makes it easier. (S) mom also
kind of had a freak out on us cause we went by last sunday morning to wake him
up for church and she didn’t think that was okay, so she told us not to
come by anymore, but hopefully that was just a short thing, but we are just
giving them time. We have (L) and another guy (M) on baptism date for oct 27,
so we are excited to see them progress. we found this cool guy named (P) he is
in his 30's and is wanting to change his life which he already has
started, he used to deal drugs and had lots of money from it but
then realized it didn’t bring him lasting happiness so he stopped, but then he
has since lost a lot because of no income, he has a strong desire to change
though so I hope we can teach him this week and get him to come watch
general conference.
We watch conference at the
church building, I’m so excited for it I cant wait. We also are gonna be having
an apostle come to the mission in October I believe and rumors are its
Elder Bednar, so that would be pretty cool.
Man, its crazy to think coy
is married haha, I never thought he would get married this fast. Tell him
congrats for me.
Dylan is gonna be taking in
some good mula at the bank.
Mom I thought you had a hand
held video camera? and do the coaches video tape the games on the top of the
commentator box on the stadium?
I heard about the cardinals
win streak, that’s so awesome, an investigator had it on at there house and
they showed the highlights when we walked in so I saw a little bit of it haha I’m
so glad kolb is good. Bummed about hockey lockout.
Keep working hard Grant don’t
give up, show the coaches you deserve to start at DE.
Your awesome Alli!
Well that’s all I got
for this week
Hope you have a great week
Love Elder Harper:)
