Wesley thinks he is an alpha wolf from teen wolf haha
The awesome district!
Usually we get fed pretty good here. Every few days we get something a bit strange but thats it.... Except this
week.... We were fed nasty meatloaf 3 nights in a row this week! Ewwwww hahaha. The first night the meat was still raw!! I picked out as much as I could without them noticing and ate the rest but my poor companion Elder Clark didn't notice that it was still red from blood and went to town on it! Ate everything and then some! HAHAHA I was laughing all the way home! We all thought he was going to be sick from eating raw meat. Ah so funny:)
The next night we had it again! This family loves animals... you know that that means.... The meatloaf had cat hair in it!! Elder Clark pulled out 4 hairs from his plate hahaha! I was too scared to even look at my food. What is funny is all four missionaries noticed the hair plain as day but the members seemed blind to it. Saturday night we ate at a less actives house and guess what they had... meatloaf. I don't ever want it again after this week hahaha.
But besides that this week has been great!! Vance was baptized!!! It was a wonderful weekend for us. I have seen him from day one not knowing if God loves him to now excited that he could be sealed to his wife for eternity in a year from now. This gospel changes lives. The commandments are here to bless us, they aren't restrictive. The work is still as busy as ever. We still have a challenge with getting our investigators to church. If anyone has ideas share! That seems to be my goal this transfer. People have a lifestyle of sleeping in and watching sports all day and it is hard to get them to change to going to church every Sunday at 9:30.
Turkey bowl this Thursday! Pumped! Its crazy because no one out here even knows what that is. We have to explain to them what it is haha.
Ah man Elder Quick is hilarious! On Tuesday the member we were supposed to go on exchanges with canceled and the other Elders didn't have anyone to go see so they went home and changed into regular clothes and came out with us! Hahaha we laughed so hard. We were able to get our member presents we needed thanks to them;) Last night we were sharing funny stories and he had us rolling. I don't think I have laughed that hard in years! Eternal friends:)
Yesterday was so cold when were out tracking! Funny story we knocked on this one house that smelled like straight up weed. This dude looked out the window and told us to get out of here (and some choice words) so I said ok and told him to have a nice day. He then said some more choice words as we walked away laughing at him. Not 5 minutes later six cop cars came flying around the corner and arrested him!! He should have listened to us. We want to go back and teach about repentance:)
Have a good week everyone! Thanks for not forgetting about me too much. Love you all
