Teaching Updates
- started teaching two new people monday night! it was awesome, and a great birthday present:)
- first one... names bob. talks a lot. but, we start teaching him! he quoted scriptures in his prayer, and all throughout the lesson. guy's a madman with memorization. twas lit. then, later in the week, he called us and bashed the crap out of us. we were..... very mad. but didn't show it. just bore testimony. he is..... well, he never would think anyone else is right about anything let's just say.
- as we left bob's on monday night tho, we saw rex and his gf poly!! (once again, not real names) walkin their dog tank, it was perfect timing, if bob hadn't talked so long, we wouldn't have talked to them. we are now poly's besties. best case. started teaching her now too tho, she's the one last week who said she felt the warm fuzzies when she talked to us!
- miner dropped us. big sad. he still wants us to come over like once a week, but big sad. love him tho. he was shirtless the whole time too. best case.
- went and saw sand, she's awesome. she thanked us for our patience with her, and want's to continue to meet and learn. except for when she called and said she wanted to give everything back and never see us again. ughghghghhghhghg
- bro shed! came to the baptism, and he felt the spirit. i know he did. he was very grateful when he left. most emotion i've seen outta that guy. wonder how we keep that going. few days later, we put him on date! good times. do love him. he came to church, and the talks and the lesson was PERFECT for him it was AWESOME
- lou and doo called us their children. love them mucho. sooooo freaking funny. they want to watch church tomorrow and have us over for dinner haha, they're so cool!
