So I'll have another 6 weeks in Newcastle! It'll be good because Elder
Fronk and I see a lot of good things happening so it's going to be fun to be
here! Elder Fronk is going to Edmond, and my new companion is from So. Cal. He's
in my zone right now, actually just a couple computers down emailing with me.
He's a Spanish speaking Elder so that will be fun! That means I get extra study
time while he does language study so that will be good for me! I'm
excited!
We really only had 1 sweet experience this week. Well we had a lot
more, but only 1 worth writing about. We unfortunately have been dropping almost
all of our investigators recently, so we have been having fun doing that. Not.
haha but we were tracting like 2 weeks ago and we met this lady named Lee. She's an older lady and she said that she worked with a Mormon lady once, and she used
to have a Book of Mormon, but she lost it. She said, "I don't believe what Joseph
Smith believed." So we talked to her a little bit and replaced her copy of the
Book of Mormon and that was cool! She said she would read it but everyone here
says that so we never think much of it. Well this week we stopped by to see if
she had read and she said, "Yeah I read about 1/3 of the Book of Mormon." We
asked what she thought and she said, "Nephi and his brothers didn't get along did
they?" Haha so we talked about that and she had a bunch of questions about the
Nephites and the Lamanites. We answered a ton of those questions and it was
good! Then she said, "In Jacob 2:27 it says not to have multiple wives. So why
did some of the Mormons have more than one wife?" So we explained that. We talked for a while longer and she said, "You guys should come
back next Thursday so we can talk more." So we hope that she finishes the Book
of Mormon by then because now that she's through 2 Nephi nothing can stop her
now right? Badum Pow! Haha
Well that's about it for us. I saw my first live possum. Those things are
pretty big- it's crazy! We also found out the people from the show "Skunk
Whispers" live like a mile away. haha I'd be shocked if anyone has seen that
show, but if you have, that's in Newcastle! Anyways, that's about it for us here.
Have a great week! Happy holidays! Love you all!
