So on Friday I was complaining about our current investigators like
how one is bipolar, the young couple are immature. All that stuff,
then later that night we go to johns and we go through the same
routine, where he tells us the same thing he always does, then we
talked about the Catholic Church, then about his old teacher, Father
Tom. Before he died, he told john to stay in the Catholic Church, but
now John is scared and worried he'll go to hell if he's not baptized
in the Mormon church. And in the Catholic Church, there's just
heaven and hell, and we explained that if the Mormon church was false,
he'd still go to heaven cuz he was baptized catholic, and he's trying
to be good. Then we said that if the Mormon church was true, he'd
still go to heaven. So he's good no matter what. But we also said
that father tom is in the spirit world being taught the truth, and he
most likely wants John to know the truth too. And like maybe for the
first time, John asked how can he know for himself what church is
true! It was cool. We told him he had to pray about it, and read the
Book of Mormon. It was a great lesson.
Then later we were going to meet a less active, nancy, and she's
lost her job and she's not taking things well. Kinda not doing great.
So we planned on talking about hope and how to increase it. When she
came there was another girl with her. Her daughter! (Nancy is an older
lady) so we got to talk to Kelly for the first time, she had lots of
good questions. So she's a new investigator! It's a great answer to
my complaining! We actually got somewhere with John and got a new
investigator, super chill. Haha. And the other elders have some sweet
blessings too. They got a new investigator as well, and their homeless
investigators found an apartment! They had been homeless for a few
months, and they lived in a tent behind Walmart. We are going to help
them move later today.
I'm happy to see the puppies! I wish I could play all day with them!
So we played Magic with a member and his friend just now, it was fun.
And before that we went to another members house to give her a
blessing, then she gave us empeƱadas, and i spilled the grease on my
shirt, so I smell oily. But they were so good! They had ground beef
and potato chunks and raisins in them. Super good.
Her son, Jesus,(hey-Zeus) is really cool. We go teaching with him a
lot. He's friends with the missionaries, cuz we go eat at his house
every week. Almost every week. Not tonight cuz his mom already fed us,
and the blessing was for surgery. That's sis. Molina, and her two
sons, Jesus and gabe. They are the only members in the family. Almost
literally too, they are the only ones that live there, the dad is
gone, and I guess they have an older sister but she's not a member and
she doesn't live there. But it's ok. She was there this morning, when
we gave her mom the blessing, and she was asking us what we were
putting on her head. Elder bey said it was extremely flammable liquid,
so don't light anything. Haha for fun.
I realized again yesterday at church that I love the people of New
York. Members mostly. A lot of them are converts, if not, they are
from Utah out here for work or job. Uhhh that's the same thing.... I
mean school.
We had deep clean and after our place we went and cleaned the other
guys place, well I didn't but huger did cuz he leaves a mess a lot.
Oh, I've been eating a bit better now, I,.... Well, I don't know. I
bought Nutella the other day cuz I haven't had it in a while, but I've
been eating grains, we had some CRACKED WHEAT in the cupboard, so I
made that, and it's good, it's real good!
Then at the other guys place I made real oatmeals, like boiling it
and adding my own sugars and it's good. I still haven't boughten
bread, so I don't eat it as much, but I still eat grains. I think I'll
eat this stuff at home too. If it ain't expensive.
Oh flip, we went to the Lamborghini dealership again today, and
because I had been there before, I knew where to go, I went to the
private show room where you really can't go into it, but there is a
glass wall, and the FLIPPIN NEW LAMBORGHINI WAS RIGHT THERE!!!!!! The
venino or something. There's only FOUR in the world, and one was
within feet of me!!!!! It was so cool, I just stood there pinching
myself saying "this is real, this is really here, it's a real car..."
It's kinda weird lookin, but it's so nice, the rims are nice. The
front spoilers and stuff are nice.
