Happy Tuesday! Yep the library was closed yesterday so we are E-mailing today J this week has been another good one and a lot of things have been going on. We were able to find two new investigators they are a mother and a daughter. They were found when I was in So Bo (South Boston) on exchanges and Elder Butts went to go find a less active member and didn’t know which apartment it was and so he just started knocking on the doors and the older Sister Gaddy was there and invited them right in (there was a man there fixing her air conditioning so they could go in) and they set a time for the next day. When I came we talked a lot about the Book of Mormon and the church and they were just so happy and had a lot of good questions. The younger sister Gaddy is 19 with a baby girl that is 7 month old, and they both just soaked it all up and are now going to read and pray to know the truth.
I think it’s so great that we don’t have to convince someone of the truth of the church but that they can know it for themselves if they just read and pray. Heavenly Father promises to tell them the truth! Man I just love it!
So another story on Saturday we were planning on biking to the flea market and contacting people there and as we left the apartment Elder Butts decides that his tires are a little flat so he starts filling them up and then BBBOOOOMMM his back inner tube pops but, he has a spare and throws it on and we go on our way. Then as we get onto main street all the sudden I hear a pooffffffffffffffffffff as my back tire starts to go flat………. So we decide that we are not meant to go to the flea market. After a few more tender mercies we are able to have a lesson with a less active that has just been reactivated and we were able to find out about a few more concerns and we were able to help with that and it was great!
When I get home I'm going to be a pro at fixing my bike. I still get compliments on my bike all the time haha.
So last Monday we went golfing well we were thinking we were going to go to the county club and play 9 holes but instead the member took us to the driving range to see if we can even play golf. He was very surprised in me haha and all I could say was me and my dad had a good time playing back home like 3 times…. And it was a lot of fun! And then this week we were going to go but there was a tournament and we are not that good haha so we ran to the tennis court and played tennis for a little….. I miss basketball a little and a great part of basketball is that you get to play inside haha but it was a lot of fun and I'm just glad we were able to go out and do something.
And there is a lot more stuff that happened but that is the big stuff I just want you to know that I truly know that what I'm doing is true because if it wasn’t I don’t think any of this kinda of stuff would happen and the statement of “truth doesn’t need to be defended “ is so true. I love the gospel!
All right take care and be safe!
