The weather there does seem a bit crazy! but it is nothing like Texas weather. they always say.. if you dont like the weather then wait 10 minutes haha. that is so true. :)
My week has been crazy! but really slow because it was spring break here and a ton of my investigators were out of town for that. so our numbers didnt look so great:/! Umm... so spring has already started this year here in Texas and that means allergy season... yayyyyyy!!! NOT! every morning i wake up with a stuffed nose and our car is covered in pollen! it is horrible. Texas makes my allergies 3 times worse here than it does in idaho so it sucks!! So Tuesday we had district meeting and it was okay.. not as good as they usually are. it was on the effective use of the missionary planner and i already know how to use it so i guess it was just a refresher haha.
On Wednesday we went to Tyler to help the Tyler missionaries members by going to a storage unit and picking up this heavy shop table and some other stuff and taking it back to their house. after that we went to one of their investigators houses who is a Mexican and they made us some real Mexican food. it was so good! After that me and Elder Lefevre went on another exchange haha.. its like the 3rd one we have done this transfer. i love that missionary! he is so funny! we had dinner at a members house (walls) that night who has a really good looking daughter haha but she wasn't there:(! Friday was the only day we had a lesson and that was with Kandie and Anna. Rickey was sleeping so he wasnt there haha. but we did invite them to be baptized and they accepted so that was super cool! They will hopefully be baptized on April 21st if everything goes as planned! The rest of the week we tracted a ton and found a few potential people so hopefully we will start teaching them.
Saturday was when we tracted the most and that morning we tracted these trailer homes and this lady who was gardening out front came up to us and said "i know who you are.. you are Mormons!" she started yelling at us saying "your religion is false, the book of Mormon is not true, you should read you bible and not that trash!" She also said.. "do you know how joseph smith was killed" and i told her "that he was martyred in the Carthage jail" and she said "no he smuggled a gun in that jail and was shooting the guards so they fired back and killed him" hahah. she was way angry at us and i thought she was literally going to slap me!!! anyways.. we tracted all that day and then decided to go to this inactive members house and her son was there who was also inactive and they said they were going to Tyler for Chinese food and they invited us to join them! That was way nice of them.. Elder Hedberg prophesied that.. He said 2 hours earlier that maybe we will get dinner from an inactive family haha and we did:)!
On Sunday i helped the whitehouse ward bless the sacrament cause there was like no one there and so i helped:) its been a while since i have done that kind of stuff haha. But in Bullard ward a guy who i didnt recognize was there and my ward mission leader was talking to him and it ended up being a man who was investigating the church. He was actually a media referral that me and elder moses received when we were together. it was actually the first night we were together and my GPS took us to a road that didn't exist so we kinda dropped him.. well he showed up yesterday and stayed for the 3 hours and now we have an appointment with him tonight! we are excited! Later that night we did some less active work and visited this family who the dad is a high priest and used to be on the high council.. well he was very rude and told us to leave.. come to find out his wife wears skimpy clothing or whatever and someone made a comment like a year ago and that's what made them leave the church! pretty stupid! people don't realize that THE CHURCH IS PERFECT! NOT THE PEOPLE! so that was a little irritating! There you have it! my exciting week!
