Our faces every time we smell someone smoking weed, haha! |
My ankle as of 2 days ago |
Kemal house and all the new ties we got from one of the Sisters' parents |
I am leaving Kemah... Dang it! Kemah is the best. This week was super different than the past
few. And I forgot to bring my journal so
I don’t remember much... but I'll try.
So this week was spring break for all the schools here. That means that we got a lot of youth out with
us all day. And because of some meetings
and a temple trip, we did a bunch of exchanges too! But we took out a bunch of priests and we
ended up talking to the craziest people. I think it freaked them out a little, haha. We had one black guy come up to us and say,
"You thought you were going to preach to me, but I am going to preach to
you instead." Then he went off on
us, haha, and he had crutches but he kept getting on his knees in the middle of
the road and praising. And we had more than
a few of those experiences, haha. But they did help us fellowship a lot of
youth we were teaching, especially with Selena.
So we meet Selena like 2 weeks ago. We were walking through the
neighborhood looking for something to do, and we decided to just pick a few
houses and knock the doors. Knocking
random doors is so fun! But Selena
answered and we just started talking to her and teaching her. Turns out she has
never been to church and the only religious knowledge she has is that the bible
talks about God and Jesus died on a cross. So we just taught her super basics, and she
loved it! Then we saw her again a few
days ago and we committed her to read the Book of Mormon in 3 Nephi when Christ
comes. And we know she is legit because
she texted us 10 minutes later and told us that her niece pulled out the
bookmark and she wanted to know what she needs to read. And she told us that she is going to read and
pray and when we go back tomorrow, she is just going to let us know if God told
her to keep listening to us or not. So
now we just pray and leave it in God's hands...
And just barely, we had a district breakfast. We always meet somewhere to listen to
transfers calls together, and this time we planned to do it at the church and
make breakfast too. So we all helped
bring stuff and we made eggs and pancakes. And the weirdest thing is that none of the
sisters here know how to cook so us Elders made it all. But it was super fun! And now we are doing our emails because we are
going to NASA today as well. I'll take a
bunch of pictures.. .hopefully, haha.
Anyways, Have a good week! Next week I’ll be somewhere new!
Love Elder Lund
