So this week was interesting to say the least and a little bit of a downer.
First
off, yes the zone leaders are still living with us and my companion is
pretty stressed out. Me and him talk and laugh all day though!
I have a pretty cool story. We were walking home Thursday
night and we have to enter the house before 9 30! We weren't really
pushing for time but we didn't have very much to lose! Fairly close to
our house there was a concert in the park. My companion asked me if we
should go check it out and just pass by! I first said yes. We started
walking there and then I decided we didn't have time and told him that
the Spirit goes home at 9 30 so we should probably follow it! He agreed
without argument.
We walked in the house and
we were putting our stuff down when we heard gunshots and screaming.
There was a gunfight at that same concert and 3 people died. I know for a
fact that somehow we would have been right there had we not changed our
minds. It was a very uplifting experience!
As for the baptism....yea that didn't happen.
She
had a problem with one of the questions in her interview. She had to
have an interview with someone with the keys to do it. We did that Wednesday and she was happy and ready and felt way better!
Thursday
night before the baptism we passed by and her husband (who is a member
and our ward mission leader) and her were happy and ready.
The
day of the baptism I got a phone call from the President of the relief
society. She told me that they called the baptism off. There was a misunderstanding between her and her husband, so needless to say are trying to fix it!
I also invited you to hangouts!
I wouldn't be surprised if that chair gives him back problems. It is from a garage sale not Office Depot. Also, he is old. (Bill's work chair is one I got at a garage sale and is causing him some back problems)
The
introduction to the Book of Mormon is what we use a lot. There are
promises in the last 2 paragraphs. It talks about what you need to do
and what will happen if you do it. You will recieve a testimony of the
Book of Mormon if you read it with a open heart!
Next Sunday I will know if I am staying or going and Monday I will do my staying or going!
As
for my package. I would love an alpha smart that I mentioned (I'm still not sure what this is). I believe
now there is one with applications. Don't get me that one I can't have
it. Just a normal one! Hot Cheetos,Takis, jerky any other things you
would like to send me! A lot of snacks! Tie tacks are always accepted as
well as ties!
Anyways, I love you guys! I am going to have to finish my emails later because this internet is closing!
Con Amor,
Elder Reese
