IS IT GETTING GAS?

4/3 Tuesday
Solid day. We taught Gilmore today and it was the usual. He doesn’t remember that he has told us the same stories every time and his teeth are falling out the whole time 😂😂 haha it kills me. We taught about the importance of going to church, praying, and reading. A few weeks back, we contacted a lady that has six kids. She told us to come back but we hadn’t been able to contact her until tonight. She is super awesome and has Mormon friends and accepted a Book of Mormon and loves the strong family aspect of the gospel! We also played some basketball with a part-member family that we have been working with!

4/4 Wednesday
We had a lesson with Lomax today and it went quite well. She told us that she wants to join the church but she doesn’t understand the idea of Priesthood Authority. She feels that she does not have to be baptized again and is quite opposed to the idea. We are praying that she can receive an answer from God regarding that matter.

4/6 Friday
So we had a lesson with a lady named Nahtalya today. She was actually taught by Elder Rivera a while ago, in one of his previous areas because she had walked into their church. Because she didn’t live in that area they passed her off to this area but she never met with missionaries here. We reached out her and set up a lesson for today. It was a decent lesson except it got way off topic and our wonderful member got to talking and talking and talking and talking. She is super awesome but is married to an atheist and has tons of questions herself but slowly and surely she will come along! We did a couple hours of tracting and found a couple people and taught the Gotchys.

4/7 Saturday
It was hot and super windy today haha. It was 91 degrees! We honestly biked like crazy all day and had a couple lessons. Not too much else happened.

4/8 Sunday
Church was great today. Tonight we were riding down a road and we saw one of our investigators out working on his truck. We stopped and started helping him. His truck is a 1990 GMC 1500 haha so it gave me some flashbacks of the ol’ truck back home haha. We were trying to start it and Fernando was like look right here when I turn it over to see if it is getting gas. He turns it over and I was looking and all of a sudden it blew up in my face haha. I jumped like super high and freaked out and Elder Rivera was like oh my gosh haha. It was nuts! Thankfully, it didn’t hurt me at all just gave me a good scare!
