I got a text from Riley today. He is so funny! Since he has been at AIT (advanced individual training) he and the Branch President are usually the only ones at church. Not like at boot camp. At boot camp, everyone needed a break from the drill Sargent, so everyone went to church. So anyway, in my text I said, “Who was at church?” And he said, “Just me! I said the prayer, blessed the sacrament and bore my testimony.” What a great son! I love him and am so proud of him! Thought I’d share!
Mama,
Ya we have our first baptism date!! Her name is M____ and she came to church and she loved it so much. Her husband L____ would already be baptised but he works all day on sunday so he has only been to church one time. 🙁 anyway but once we figure that out he will be baptised. yes i received your letters and i’m sending one today. sorry i would write more often but we work all day and go to bed so its hard to find time to write. oh ya the memory card is in the letter so you will have it soon. Ya i got a letter from Riley and he sounds like he is ready to come home. But he will be fine i’m not worried. So the area we work in is very hard to navigate through it has street names not numbers so its really hard to find places. anyway we have a zone activity today so time is short. Love you mom see you in a minute.
Baba!!
So yesterday we got yelled at by a racist guy and he called security on us it was so funny. Cause the securtiy guy didn’t do anything about us cause he knew we were good. so we are teaching like crazy. On Saturday we had a blitz for an area in our zone and all the missionaries just contacted for like an hour it was super fun. I love street contacting and i’m getting pretty skilled at it to! My best so far is contacting three people at the same time! its great anyway good to hear things are going good at home. I love you.
things are going fantastic!!! we have found thirty two new investigators since i got here we are on fire we are teaching like crazy. but now its getting out of hand because we have a hard time seeing everyone we need to. but the work is going awesome and the time is flying by. it turns out when you work your butt off every day the days go by fast. yep we have had some awesome experiances when we have visited one of the members. And he is a spiritual giant so we go visit him and we feel the spirit so strong. He is a return missionary and he was honorably sent home after eighteen months because he burnt out but he did more work in that eighteen months than most two missionaries do in there entire missions. I have been writing in my journal almost every day. Our teaching and finding we are doing both very well. and tell you the truth me and Elder martin are probably the most obediant missionaries in the mission. So God has blessed us for it things have just been working out its so nice. My favorite part of SA is the fact the people actually walk places so street finding is amazing here. you could stand at one corner all day and contact over a hundred people. CRAZY HUH!!!! anyway just know i’m working my can off and i will till the end of my mission. Love you Mama
Love, Elder Flexy
Baba,
Thats awesome that Brother _____ is getting involved. So i met this Elder in my zone his name is Elder A__ and his family came to visit us and we met his dad. And he reminds me of me and you.:) Him and his dad are so, so, so similar kinda like you and me. Its pretty sweet these missionaries are very powerful! Not too obediant but they are great teachers. and i’ve learned a lot from them. Anyway love you Baba.
Love, Elder Flexy
