This week was good and i dont have much to say about it...besides it was a bit strange bit strange though...
We had one lesson where we stopped at a less actifes house and he just kept asking is why we are hear.... and when we tried to get to know him he would just stop talking mid sentence of whatever we told him... it was so awkward it was so funny.... afterwards
MEMBERS!!!
Things are looking up.... we have really been focusing on the members this past week( because nothing gets done in missionarie woek wothout the members help). And it was really cool sister mullins chasized the ward about not helping and now we are getting fed everyday for the next two weeks lol... sister mullins is a rock star... shw is working on giving out her third book of mormon!! Her and husband are supper funny because she is compleatly missionarie minded and will tell anyone that the "field is white already to harvestc meanwhile her husband will look at us dead in the eye and say i wilp not do that, it hillarious how well they work togeather. If only you could meet them for your self.
Sister wilson is also rocking it... she had us write our information on a buch of cards and she gave 18 of the 20 cards out in 4 days.... she is reallu funny, because me and elder jones looks like her kids so she will shos them a picture of us the say dont you se the resemblance... then explain how her kids are gonna go on a mission and how much she loves our church... she is just an amazing missionarie. And has a testimony that can never be shaken.
On a different note...
>In huber hieghts i woeked really close with the martineau`s and sister wade is her daughter so it was cool to conect with them on that. Brother martineau is a fantastic member and his exapmple changes anyones life who has the oppertunity to meet him.
Exchange with elder cook
I got to go on a exchange. Elder cook is a stud. He has a strong testimony and is a trooper... he went home for a while for shoulder surgery and now he sees it as it was only a way for his faith to be strengthened... i love that man... sadly we were too wet... we didnt even think about taking a picture...
We did however have a sweet miracle, we went by an unverified member... he was most deffinately not interested he hasnt been to church for 36 years lol... he now just goes to the church his wife chooses.... but anyway thst wasnt the mieacle as we were leaving he yelled heymits been a while since i have sen anyone visit mike do you guys still go over there? We then asked who she was and he told us simplely go over and meet them... so unconfident we go over....
She opens the door and we ask hey we heard you met with missionaries its been a little while hows it going.
She replied yea i did... i told them never too come back!...
Luckily we didnt let that be the end of the conversation we kept her talking she told us how she loves the church and went there over 50 times she also still has been reading the book of mormon. She just stopped going and talking with missionaries because they werent ready to be baptized back then. She expressed the desire now we just have to work on her husband. We are going back friday and i am so excited
I got to give a talk...
It went really well it was crazy it was the first talk i have given that it was ultimately compleatly clear to me what tomsay before i got to the pulpit...
Side note
I spoke with the two sisters and before the meeting began i was givingnthe sisters all nervous or trying to at least and one of them looked at me and said dont you worry i will be the anchor and save both of you.... then she gets up and sits down after her talk that was alot shorter then expected... it was 4 minuets lol we all were supposed to give 10 minuet talks... it was hillarious to me anyway... i spoke for 13 ... the other sister spoke for 17
Sister gooch!
Sister Gooch is awesome she is a less active member we met last week but didnt expect much of it... we invited to read the book everyday until the next time we come by and she did! And it is just a night and daymdifference that comes when you read the book of mormon... it was just another example of the truthfulness of it
Hair cut....
My companion bribed me to put this in my email.... i think it was worth it...
So i got a hair cut this last week and the lady was supper awkward so to start a converation she asks so ehat grade are you in?.... after a pause,
I replied, i have my associates... silence fell and then i just hear bursting out lauphing... he thinks its the funniest thing in the world.
