WOOO

Alright so this week was great.

Remember that guy that may or may not have worked for a Russian security organization... Well good news, he decided that the church health code (Word of Wisdom) is awesome and easy to live and wants to continue for the rest of his life. Booyah.

He also really wants to be baptized and everything that comes with that but there are some extraneous circumstances in the way at this time. He did agree to bring his wife in on the lessons tho.

STOKED.

In other news the other man we are working with that has the same name as our healthy friend up there just got out of the hospital and we were able to meet with him as well. He has some problems in believing in an afterlife and stuff so we are working on that. but he is smoking a lot less now which is amazing news.

 

We had 4 count em 4 lessons fall through this week. it was bogus. but we have faith and hope and the snickers bars here are even better than in America so its chill we can handle anything.

 

We are working with a new person as well this week. He, or she... Im not "allowed" to say (psshh) is younger than most of our investigators. A couple years younger than us. Super cool tho and has already been to church twice.

 

Fun fact. I saved a grandma this week. She had some sort of medical emergency so in the middle of our morning studies some Russian lady came to our door and screamed something at my that I almost understood. we then proceeded to help her carry this poor older person down 6 flights of stairs to an ambulance.

 

there was another Baptism this week and there will be another on Friday. they are all coming from the same city, which happens to be that incredibly polluted city I visited last week. The field is radioactive and ready to harvest there. Oh and one of the elders serving there is from PG. Elder Atterton. Classy guy.

 

Two new missionaries came to my area this week A sister from the MTC and an Elder from another city Hes from Beaver UT and you can totally tell. Its mildly hilarious.

Well that's about it for me this week. Don't worry I didn't get accosted or anything this time...
