1/8/2018 Week 10: Look What I Found

Good week so far. Start with us having a little bit of a district fun day with the Elders in the district. We went to the mall, there was a legit reason why because as a missionary your shirt gets untucked really easy so we went and tried to find some of those things that attach to your sock and shirt to keep it tucked, couldn't find it. Also there is a Canes next door but they where closed. The original plan was to go to the Lakeside Elders apartment area to play pool but that was closed to because people like to have days off on new years. We also just started to teach a family of around 11 people 7 of them old enough to be baptized. They love the lessons and begged the mom and dad about going to church and being baptized. Also Jay jay the jet plane is as creepy as I remember of course. Also I have finished my goal of baptizing the city and now I am moving on to the state. Just kidding that will take another week. Love the ward, they are all really friendly. I also need to do my laundry today.  We'll be getting phones soon. I am going through training for smart phones and I just have to do like a test or something. I hate this computer I am using because it is a public computer so the keyboard is super gross and greasy. Another great things about phones. Off topic but I laugh at the fact that a 2.5 liter bottle of soda (pop as they say here) is cheaper than a normal bottle of water. Money is weird. The prices of everything is changing now though because tax stuff which sucks. Sucks almost as much waking up and not an hour later hearing that your leader and the mouth piece of God had passed away. Its weird though because even though he was a true prophet of God and you have known him and heard him talk and teach you for 10 years, being the majority of your life I might add, I wasn't sad or angry or disappointed or anything of the sort when hearing the news and its because the fact that I teach and study and learn more about the Plan of Salvation that the idea of death didn't really bother me. I just didn't mind I guess. I had no doubts or worries. I miss you but the thing is I think of a quote from President Monson where he said, "I gave up something I love dearly for the God I love more."That's all I can think of really this week. I am not good at writing emails about my week.
