Hey Family!
Sorry I am emailing late, we played ball with
President today. We decided we would get some elders together and play
one more time with him before he left. I am still standing by my
statement that he is the coolest mission president of
all time. He played with us forever. Me and him were guarding each
other and it got pretty intense! He is dang good for an old man!
Afterwards he bought all the missionaries little caesars. It was a P-day
for the ages.
Anyways this week was pretty awesome. We went on exchanges with the frayser elders on Tuesday.
Frayser is in Memphis and its the sketchiest, most dangerous, most
ghetto place in our mission. It was an eye opener for me. We taught a
lot
of people though and it was way fun!
Kate will appreciate this story: While I was in
Memphis we were at a dinner and we were talking to a guy that said he
knew Michael Oher. (Blindside) The neighborhood he grew up in was in the
area I was working in that day. We asked the
guy if he could set up an appointment with his family for us to teach
them and he called them right there! So I am pretty sure those Memphis
elders are going to start teaching Michael Ohers Mom and brother. Crazy
eh?
On the way home from Memphis that day Elder
Armstrong and I were stuck in traffic right after we crossed the
Mississippi for 3 hours on the I-40.
Yesterday was fast sunday and Carsha bore her testimony! It was so awesome! She loves the church and got a calling to be the sunday
school vice president. Ishia came to church again too. We are still
teaching her and her family. Her kids
are good to get baptized now and so is she but she wants to wait to get
baptized with her husband. So its kind of a sticky
situation but it will all work out.
Thanks family!
