Hello
friends and family! This week was just splendid! I received a new
comapnion in Elder Ford from Riverton, UT. He is dandy guy, although it
was hard to say bye to Elder Smith seeing as I was with him 24/7 for 4
months but life moves on.
This week we got to experience a
miracle which usually goes unnoticed, that is, a preyer being answered.
We had a lesson on Saturday night at 8pm, but our investigator had moved
to a new house in his neighborhood temporaily while they are redoing
his kitchen in his normal house. Anyways he didnt know the address so he
couldnt tell us where he lived, we just knew it was in the same area.
He told us to call him when we get there so he can come let us in
because it was in a locked building. Anyways we get there and call him,
but no answer, we call him again and no answer, we call his wife, who
was a former investigator, but no answer. We send her a text, but no
reply. By now we are cold form standing outside and frustrated because
we had already had 3 lessons cancell on us that day. We figure that
maybe when they moved temporarily their name on the door went with them.
So we searched every apartment building in the area looking for the
name Altonen. We found one adn buzzed their door and they let us in the
building but when we got to their door we realized it wasnt them so we
just did our normal tracting approach. Confused and frustrated we figure
our last resort is to pray and then try to do something. So there we
stood in the street and petitioned Heavenly Father for some help. After
we ended we went to a door where we thought they may be, when not even 2
minutes after the prayer, our investigator calls us and we get to meet
with him. This maybe a coinsidence, but I know its not! Such a testimony
builder to me and a reassurance that God answers prayers!
Another
story, but this one is funny for me atleast. We were contacting on the
stret adn we stop this girl who is like lates 20s early 30s and she
stops super super close to my companion, like leaning on him pretty
much, and she had this wierd look in her eyes. My companion starts to
speak and takes a step back but this girls eyes are dead locked in his
and then she looks at me and does the same. Feeling uncomfortable I turn
and look at my companion and she does the same. Then she does what i
though she was going to do but hoping she wouldnt. She grabbed my
campanion and put her arm around his neck and then plant a big old fat
kiss right on his cheek. She was going for the lips, but he avoided
that. Anyways this resulted in him with a nice lipstick stain on his
cheek and me basically dying of laughter on the street. There is
something about my comapnions that girls just like, everyone falls in
love them or tries to kiss them haha!
