Another solid week in the books, with at least one good story to tell from it.
Tuesday
started the week off on a plain but positive note. We did a lot of good tracting
and contacting, and hopefully, find some people out of it.
Wednesday,
after district council, we went to Bases for lunch, and we sat in our car in a
parking lot to eat. An old homeless guy knocked on our car door and spun this
wild tale about how a cop owed him money, and we should "invest" in
his legal battle to get back more money. We told him we weren't allowed to do
that and were unsure if it was even legal. Well, he got upset and called us
hypocritical church people for not giving him money as good Christians should.
I've never had a beggar try to take the high road on me before, it was kinda
funny actually. We taught our friend Julia in the afternoon and reset her
baptismal date, so she should be good to go for the middle of November. We also
had dinner with Mike in the evening.
Thursday
was the usual weekly planning and institute in the evening, although we did
have a wild zoom lesson with our member Lily in the afternoon.
Friday
afternoon we did the food truck again with most of the Elders in our zone. We
taught Christian in the afternoon again then in the evening had dinner with the
Leons.
Saturday
morning we went to the sister's baptism in Clear Lake, and finished up some of
our planning. In the evening we got to teach our friend Richard who just got
the Melchezidek priesthood and hopefully will be getting his patriarchal
blessing soon.
Sunday
we had church and our usual meetings, then cleaned up a bit to get ready for
inspections the next day. We had mission prep class again in the evening, this
time joined by our member Chris.
We
got our apartment inspected Monday morning, then we went to Galveston to join
the Elders at Fruity Party Island. We came back up to spend the rest of the day
playing Fortnite monopoly and volleyball with the clear lake district. For FHE,
we played camera hot potato and signs again.
It
was a fairly solid week, nothing super outstanding but nothing super bad
either.
