Week 6
Hey! These Weeks are flying by!! On Monday it was Heros Day. There were lots of Parties and Alcohol and Weed. We went to see a woman yesterday named Annie! She has a Mini Bar in her house sooo there were a lot of drunk people at her house! Little back story 2 other Elders Baptized this Lady and she said hey can you guys get some Missionaries to my Friends? Thats where Elder Graham and I come in. We went and saw the first Lady and she said never come back i already have a God. Sooo we left after that haha but Annie Lives next door and we met her at one of her parties she was throwing . There are always High and Drunk people at her house but that makes for funny times. They think that Weed is really good for the mind and it makes you smarter. Haven't seen one smart guy with a spliff in their mouth. Annie is really loving what we have to teach her. She loves the restoration! I can't wait to get into the plan of salvation with her because she has a baby daddy that she is planning on getting married to by the end of the year! She has a 17 year old daughter who is also sitting in on our lessons. Annie said she will come to church this sunday! Hopefully she does! Church is the best place to learn more. Missionaries are great but not as good as the Ward Members support!
This week Elder Graham and I went to go Finding in Innsome. We didn't find anybody but when we were walking back to our house at night we stopped at a gated Neighborhood and I said to Elder Graham lets go chat it up with the Security guards! We tried to talk to one but he said just go talk to the guy at the gate. So we went over and talked to a guy named Julio. We got to talking and he lives on the same street as one of other Investigators. Turns out thats his mom we are teaching!! He got Married a few months ago and his marriage is gettting rough. We talked to him about the Plan of Salvation and he said you guys need to come over. I know that what you guys have will help me and my wife out. We are diffidently going to visit him this week!
On Tuesday Last week i got to go on Exchanges with Elder Robbins my MTC Companion! It was a lot of fun we talked to a lot of people and teaching him was so much fun. We are a lot better teachers that when we were back in the MTC!
Teaching Erika was interesting this week. She is in her late 20's but hangs out with 14 year old kids and younger. She has 2 kids as well and they are pretty crazy. Its hard to teach when they are jumping on her and us. The environment isn't really good right now but we are going to visit her this week when everybody is at school so hopefully it will go a lot better! Her little 3 year old girl was flipping me off during one lesson haha she is a silly girl. Her little 4 year old boy was taking a puppy and throwing it in the air and not catching it. They really don't like their dogs. Or they love them so much they get to excited and drop them.
I'm so grateful for the time i get to be out here in Jamaica! I know that the Book of Mormon is true and the more we read it the better we can aline our lives with Christ. Members are so important to the work. The Members will help the Investigator more along so much faster! I'm grateful for eveybody back at home and the example they set for me. I know that Jesus Always has his hand stretched out and we just need to grab onto it and he will help us through our hard times. I love being a Missionary!!
Nuff Love,
