Super

Hey Family and Friends:

This week was a super awesome week.  I thought I would something a little bit different and just record myself talking about the week for a little bit.

So earlier this week or late last week, there was some records in our Area Book about a part member family that did not have too much information about them.  Missionaries had tried them for a while and we ended up going by on Friday or Saturday and met these two awesome kids and they are like, one is 12 and one is 15.  Their names are Jayden and Ashton. They started talking to us and they were like way cool. They had no idea that their mother was actually a member of the church and they told us to come back by when their parents were home.  We went by on Monday and met the dad and he said, “Hey, my wife is not home, but come back by tomorrow.”  So on Tuesday, we were able to teach them and really feel the Spirit with them.  We were actually able to teach them again on Friday.  They weren’t able to come to church this week, because they had some visits from step-parents and things like that, but they are planning on coming next week. So we are super excited about them. They are a way awesome family and they definitely need the gospel.

We were also able to teach Aubrey a couple of times this week.  She has set a baptismal date of June 23rd.  She was not able to come to church this week, because one of her kids actually got sick, but her husband is getting a little bit more interested in the Gospel, so we are really hoping and praying that the Spirit continues to work on him so we can teach all of them.  Aubrey is actually going to be coming to a Zone Conference this upcoming week to help Elder Rabago and me with our training there.  She is super awesome for doing that and we are super excited for that.

We were able to teach another part-member family this week (the Davis Family). Brother Davis grew up a member of the church, the youngest of nine or ten brothers, I think.  So, he fell away from the church but still has a pretty strong testimony and we were able to teach them on Friday night. Afterward, we got a pretty good compliment from his wife, who is not a member of the church, by telling us that the message that we shared, we taught the Plan of Salvation, was the best missionary discussion they had ever had, so that was pretty cool.

We got to go to the temple this week and we were able to ride in a Tesla. It is a super nice car. You probably have not seen them in Wyoming.  They are all electric kind of sports cars, so that was fun.

We were also able to teach Aubrey in a member’s home on Sunday night and after that we were able to teach a man named Rocky.  Rocky is a super, super, cool guy. He is a little up on some Satan lettuce, aka, marijuana and probably would have been a cough syrup. But he is a super cool guy and he enjoyed the lesson on the Restoration.  His family definitely needs the gospel, but we will see what we can do to help them progress. He also owns his own little studio and they record rap music and he has a ton of tattoos.  He is a good guy and has desires to do good. So we are going to keep trying to help them out.

For the most part those are the main things that happened this week.  We taught a couple of other lessons but nothing too crazy.  At church on Sunday, we were able to have five investigators there and so that was super exciting and super awesome.

Love you all!  Hope you have a great rest of your week.  Talk to you later!

Bye, (Elder Call)
