So this week was way good! While we were knocking we found 2 great people! The first was Rocky as you can probably tell by the name this is the coolest guy in Lubbock. So we knocked on the glass door and we see him walking up with a huge smile on his face so we're thinking oh he's a member or he wants to throw down. Well it was neither! turns out his daughter is dating a member in the ward and had been going to LDS.org to figure out more about our church. We taught him a mini restoration and then he asked me how I felt about the Book Of Mormon. I WAS STOKED! So I started baring my testimony and the spirit was super strong. the Sis. Zahrt bore hers and it just got stronger! He said we could come back this week and teach the whole family!
Next! Raymond! and for those that know the she calls me raymond song... yeah I have it stuck in my head all the time now.
So we knocked into Raymond and he invited us right in and before we told him anything he was like yeah I need to go to your church. I go to the catholic church cause I've alwasy gone but I dont like it, the money we give them doesnt go to the church, we've been at this one for 2 years and we still dont know anyone and all that good stuff. So we Offered them a church tour the next day. When we got to their house with our Ward Mission leader we found out that they were so excited to come but the wifes uncle died the night before so they were leaving out of town for the funeral. We went inside and said a prayer with them and talked to them for a few minutes about the Plan Of Salvation. They get in town tomorrow and we are doing a church tour wednesday so its pretty legit.
Also this week the YSA branch I was in came to the temple! so I got to see them! and John the kid I was teaching down there got baptized friday so I got to see him too! It was so nice to see them again! They really helped me feel at home while I was in San Angelo so seeing them brought that to Lubbock a little!
I love y'all so much! being on a mission is the best thing I have ever chosen to do! The holidays aren't as bad as I thought they would be so thats really nice! We decorated the mission home this week too. It really is so nice to be so close to President and Sister Augustin even though we dont see them much. Thanks again for all your support and love!
