What's happenin fam?
Man I hope everyone's week was as good as ours! We had a fun one! It rained
a lot early on in the week, and it's raining today, but that's good because the
state needs it. It looks like we went a whole May without even having to get to
a shelter, so that's good! But school is out so there are plenty of people to
talk to, and people are out and about! The weather is getting really warm and
humid, so I'm excited about that!
This week went by real fast. We had a great week though so it was good!
Nothing too crazy happened, but oh well. Sunday was probably the highlight. We
had a recent convert out with us and we were able to get in and talk to a lot of
people with him! The coolest thing though was we were driving from one house to
another, and Chris sees a lady out in her driveway sweeping. He pulled over and
was like, "Lets go talk with her." So we got out of the car and walked over to
her and started talking to her. She turned into a new investigator and when we
recited the first vision to her she said, "I really hope that's happened or that
it will happen soon." So we'll see her in the next day or 2 and get to talk with
her. It was way cool to see the member have the desire to literally talk to
everyone he saw!
I was able to play some more ball this week. We picked up 14 potential
investigators from stopping and playing basketball with some people. Haha- the
first time there were 3 guys out playing and I'm in a trio for a bit and so we
went and played them 3 on 3. We beat them really bad (and they told us they
thought we were joking when we asked if we could play, and they thought they'd
kill us) and so the old guys stepped out to play us. We beat them 10-8, and
afterwards we talked to them a lot about who we are and what we do. We prayed with
all 12 of them and then they invited us back! Haha- it was fun we had a really good
time with them! The other time was there were a couple kids who were high school
age and we saw them out playing so we started talking to them and I said, "Maybe
next time we're here we'll have to stop by and play against you guys." One of
they guys said, "You may not like what you see." Haha- so I said "Alright well
lets play a quick game to 5 to see what's up." So I gave him the ball and
he started dribbling and he tried to go around me and I stole it from him and
his friend started freaking out. I ended up beating him and we had a good time.
They said next time we can talk to them about Christ so we're excited! Haha- and
we found an investigator last week from playing basketball with them, so looks
like an effective finding tool! I've never had to work so hard for investigators
though. :) It's been fun!
Other than that not there isn't too much going on. All of our solid progressing
investigators have been on vacation or busy, so we haven't been able to make too
much contact with them, but we were able to find a ton of other people to teach
so it wasn't a huge deal! Life has been good out here!
Hope you all are having a good one! If not then start having a good one!
Haha- until next week.....
