We were chased by our first dog the other day! We were in a sketchy part of town walking down the street when a medium sized dog comes out of nowhere at us! hahah I WAS GONE. No worries :) How do you out run a dog? You dont. Just outrun your companion:)
We were knocking doors last night and two cop cars pulled up to us. Apparently someone called in saying we were looking in their windows and being very suspicious... :)
We found a new investigator named Ace this week. He is my first black investigator and he is awesome! He is a rapper! He flew down to Florida on Thursday to have his first album signed! What a G. He calls himself Lil Ace like Lil Wayne :)
Tuesday we were in Fishers all day long, which is where the mission office is. We had specialized training for the new missionaries. It was a long day, but as usual it was very powerful! We watched a talk from Elder Holland. So powerful! As a missionary you need to be either all in or you are all out, it is that simple. Either you can work to be an instrument in the Lords hands, or not. I am all in!
Transfers are on Tuesday! No more trio! Can you believe i will be in this area for 6 months!? That is a long time. I know everyone in this little town. When people drive by i think to myself, " yep I've knocked on your door."
When we teach investigators I have learned on of the many important things to do is to promise them blessings. When they can act in faith knowing that they will be blessed, that is when they will receive spiritual confirmation of how true this gospel is! I love this quote- "God wants our faith to be founded on knowledge and evidence, but He says that we must act first in order to obtain that evidence. How ironic. Those who demand confirmation first miss the opportunity to get the witness. And those who are willing to act without confirmation end up getting the witness." Gerald N Lund.
Have a good week everyone! Merry Christmas
