Let me start with the UPs of the week. It
started in the beginning of the week. We have been focusing on finding
and the area isn't the easiest to find in, but we had a former
investigator call us and ask if we could come over and do some service
for her. We did. We fixed her super wack gate but it functions now lol. Afterward we were able to sit down with her and talk a little, share the Christmas initiative the Church put out. It's a good one, check it out
and do it and share it. But anyway, we talked to her. She actually seems
pretty solid like she would be totally willing to keep meeting and
everything, but her job has just absolutely crazy hours. She has no set
time, she has nothing but call in. But we are hoping that we can start
figuring out a way around that because she could really progress I
think. So that was cool to find her. We also found two other people
that night but of course they go to the Young Single Adult Ward. So we passed them off to the Young Single Adult missionaries. But it is
still good, we are still trying to find all those we can.
So that was an up, we hit our goal of finding. Now let me tell you of the
down. On Friday I got some weird bug or something. I felt pretty bad
like all day. I couldn't really eat anything and it hurt to lay down, sit
up and stand so nothing was comfortable. That lasted all day. Couldn't work, couldn't do much of anything. So we had a member watch me
and another member go out with E. Sesay so he could still work. That
was nice. The nurse told me I couldn't eat or drink that much. I could
only take a sip of Gatorade and 1 to 2 crackers every 20 min. That
was fun. It was lame because we had to cancel dinner. Uncool part about
that is that it was with Bishop, and I had never met the Bishop and
apparently our text didn't get to him so he sat and waited for us and
then he finally called us after we were 20 min late and found out we weren't coming. But it's all good. He still likes me and understands,
bless that. I ended up throwing up later that night. But I felt better. Good times, right.
The other thing happened this
morning, got a call this morning from a senior missionary. He told me the
cops just called them and told us that someone bashed out the back
window of our car. We go out and guess what, it's true. Som
one smashed the back door window and they took our bags. My camera
was in my bag so goodbye mission pictures. It was quite the mess. We
cleaned out all the glass and are going to get a new window in the
morning. Fun stuff, right:) They smashed out a few car windows on the
street and stole some other things, welcome to Long Beach :)
love you guys
