Nothing to crazy just super warm weather, allergies, farmer tans, and getting skunked while fishing. We have a friend that we are teaching and he's super dope! We've gone through the first 3 lessons and answered a ton of his questions and he's loving the Book of Mormon and reading it a ton. We'll probably invite him to be baptized here soon which will be exciting. He recognizes and loves feeling the spirit and he asks a lot of good questions. He brought up the Word of Wisdom the other day so we proceeded to teach him more about it and he said, "yeh man, ever since I read about the Word of Wisdom I've thrown out all my coffee and I don't drink or smoke so now I just have to get off my British breakfast tea! I can do it though, I'll just throw it all out. I feel like it's been easy though because ever since I started talking with you guys it just doesn't taste as good to me!" So that's been a sweet little tender mercy the Lord is blessing him with as he listens to the spirit and reads the Book of Mormon.
We do tons of service here which is nice and we've had the opportunity to work at this second hand boutique and help organize stuff and work at the register. While I was working at the register this lady and her kids came in looking for a bible and I thought hey I could help with that but in this place we can't wear our tags so I had to be sneaky about it. She asked where she could find one and I led her on a wild goose chase to the back of the store where there was no bible in sight. Then, we walked back there to help and told her if she couldn't find one we could give her one for free. She gave us her number and then we met up with her like a day later and gave her a bible and some picture bible books for her two sons. Then her father in law came to pick her up and just didn't like us one bit. The next day we pulled up to the church and all the books were sitting there so that was kinda sad. Just trying to be creative, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
We had a siiiiick p day today. The boys in our zone came over for splits and p day so we woke up early and hit this sick fishing spot, caught some small guys but nothing to big. But then we pulled up to this park and played some footy with people and it was fun but I'm not the best so I was like done after an hour. Then we start walking back and I see a bunch of high school boys playing American Football and I dropped my stuff and started balling with them. I didn't realize at first but they were playing tackle hahaha and it wasn't even a real game it was more like smear the queer and some kid came up to tackled me and I stiff armed him to the ground so hard. Then I just TRUCKED this kid to the ground and It felt soooooo good! They were all so hyped and started chanting my name and just gave me the ball everytime and I was just going off it was so fun. Took me back to the good ol days of playing under the lights with my boys. Then I got all their numbers and a bunch of chicks came up and we're trying to put their numbers in my phone and we just started laughing so hard. Then we found some people playing basketball and had fun with them too, it was great to be outside. Solid week for sure hope your all doing good!
