Things here in Niles have been great! We are witnessing so many miracles and seen so many people progress. Funny story we were in a lesson with an investigator yesterday and we invited a member along. We were reading the book of mormon and came to the part where Nephi kills Laban. We were on the edge of our seats, hoping she wouldn't have a problem with it. Luckily she understood it and was ready to read on.... until the member began telling her how we are not allowed to kill and going off on the repentance process... AH!! haha he told us later he was following the spirit (which one, we are not sure). Somehow we got into the church courts and everything. It made for a very interesting lesson haha. So instead of inviting her to baptism we had to try and climb ourselves out of a big hole ha! Funny story! So if you are ever invited to go out with your missionaries just remember to teach simply and following the Holy Ghost :)
Zone conference went great! Focused on how to use temple and family history consultants, and finding! There was a stake conference broadcast on Sunday. Our new investigator Faye came to church for the first time... she was a bit confused ha! But she enjoyed it and will be back, it was a great conference. Elder Oaks spoke on missionary work!
Life is good. The work is great! Cant wait to skype home next week!
Fun facts:
1. If someone wants you to knock on the side door they will put a chair in front of the front door!
2. If someone says, "its been a minute." it doesn't mean a minute, it actually means it has been a while.
3. We were helping an old man with tearing down paneling on his wall this week and took a box of his cigarettes. Im sure he wont mind! We are going to start a collection of stolen cigs :)
