ACTING

Coolio!! I am a little late on the whole emailing thing so this will maybe probably hopefully be short...

Last Pday we was chilling in Chick-Fil-a trying to plan out the rest of our day when we got smacked down by a bible basher for 2.5 hours. I am not going to go into too many details, all I'm gonna say is it was not fun at all. In the end he felt like a jerk so he gave us $200 in Chick-fil-a free food cards. That was pretty weird but I'm not bout to complain.

Tuesday we went to the most ghetto part of Fayetteville (not very big) to follow up with some potentials. When we were about to leave I got the distinct impression to tract this small street of houses. So we did, then we ran into a guy named Bo and his wife. We got talking about the Gospel for a straight hour. They had some really good questions including, "Where are the Books of Moses?" I was all like, whoa whoa whoa, we gots the answer right here. There were many more questions like this one, it was cool to be able to answer their questions and then give them a Book of Mormon. They are moving to Jonesboro here in a bit so we will refer them over to those Elders!!

Allergies are hitting hard!! I was pounded this week with sneezing, wheezing, coughing, and runny noses. The Pollen here is absolutely incredible, I've never seen it completely coat cars before. Anyway, I will send a picture of me cuz it is pretty funny!!

Friday we tracted a trailer park and found like 8 potentials. It was awesome, felt like the good ol times in Snellville/Centerville. One of which was a guy named Jason, he is from China. He came to Georgia about a year ago, and he actually speaks really good english. Anyway, we were able to get a mandarin Chinese Book of Mormon to him and his wife and we will be teaching him this upcoming Sunday!! I don't know why but I really really really really really really really hope this guy and his family gets into this Gospel. I feel so much love for them for some reason and I've only met them twice. But on top of that I feel there is a special connection with my good ol' cousin Grayson Thayne in Taiwan. I know why he loves those people so much!!

Saturday we finally got to do service again. We haven't had a lot of opportunities to serve here so being able to help others all day long was a dream come true!!

Sunday was fantastic!! In the morning a tree fell down on the road leading to the church building so one of the Members asked us Elders to come move it. I honestly don't know how we were able to do that, but we did. A lot of non-members saw us and thanked us for it. Hopefully they will open their doors to us in the future, ahha!!

In Priesthood meeting our Elders Quorum President gave a lesson on Ministering and it was jam packed with the spirit!! I love the idea of ministering so much, It was definitely inspired and needed for our day and our time!!

I have a testimony on acting on impressions from the Spirit. I know how important it is to listen and act on those promptings because then the Lord trusts us more with more inspiration and more revelation. It is quite incredible!! The gifts of the Spirit are seeeick!!

Love yall!! Have a happy Spring for all yall Utahn's going through the dead of Winter!! Har Har Har!!
