This week flew by holy freaking cow! Like every day feels so long as a missionary but the weeks feel soo short Good Guac! But this week has been spent with lots of door knocking and stuff! We knocked probably close to 400 doors this week and that's the most I've done so far on my mission! Its been crazy! We have been doing close to 10 hours of proselyting daily! The average is about 8 we decided we would work extra hard this week to see more miracles! It was a struggle bus at times but we persisted hahaha! And all that working led to lots of stories hahaha so i will share a couple with y'all! So one day were out knocking doors and i see this old lady sweeping her garage out and so i jog over there offering to help her out and she turns around and screams I swear if you come closer i will hit you with my broom so i stopped dead in my tracks haha! She was so upset with me hahahaha! Another one is the numerous times when people say our religion doesn't match up with the Bible and i ask what in specific and they say well i cant think of any right now off the top of my head! Hahaha its because there isn't any! Or when we play basketball with all these kids and just dunk all over them cuz they wanna play on 9 foot rims haha so we just lay down the hammer on them! There were these 3 kids who challenged us while we were out knocking and they were so cocky about it so on the first play we let them score then steal it and score then all of a sudden i threw an ally oop to Elder Thompson and he threw down on them hahahah! Or when Mississippi started doing donuts and drifting in his riding lawn mower for us hahahahahaha!!! It was so funny! Another one is when a member dropped off some fruit to our porch and we felt bad taking it so we raced them home and dropped it off on his porch before he got there hahaha it was so funny-But a couple crazy stories too!
So during one of our lessons one of our investigators told us that he thought about committing suicide but then he remembered "his brothers" were coming tomorrow and couldn't let them down! He told us that we are his brothers! We are his best friends and we are pretty much the sons he wished he had! It was so crazy but it really made me realized that we do so much for people that some people never get!
Another one is when we felt like we weren't doing enough cuz we weren't seeing "success" as in like having people meet with us or even keeping return appointments or even lots of slammed doors we finally met a guy named Ryan and he is totally Golden he has been so prepared by the Lord for us to meet with him! It was incredible! We met with him Saturday and he came to church and loved it the next day! This week has been full of crazy stories! I love you all please stay safe!
