Sooooo if I were to describe this week in one word it would be unique. Beginning-ish of week we taught this man and he was very thankful. We said a prayer with him and then he told us that we prevented him from killing someone, needless to say me and my comp were like ?๐ we got outta there pretty quick haha. Something else that happened was actually kinda sad, We've found like 5 really solid people the last few weeks and randomly one morning they all texted us and told us they didn't want to see us again. not gonna lie, that one hurt a bit. Oh well, all we can really do is share the message and guide people, in the end they have their agency.
this happened right before General Conference, so me and elder Kreimeyer didn't have anyone come to the church and watch it. it's all good tho, the Cunningham sisters came in clutch with like 10 in person investigators, it was fun to fellowship with them. also General Conference 2021 was straight fire.
The last bit of craziness happened yesterday. We knocked this door and a lady dressed like a witch answered? People here are weird haha. anyways while we were talking her dog got out and the next 45 min. consisted of us running through the woods to catch it. anyways then we go to a former named Gary. turns out he's in jail, so we knocked the next door over.
What happened next was straight out of a safety zone video. this family opens this door, say they aren't religious but interested, and invite us in. Me and my companion are thinking about how huge this is, when we notice there's like 20 bibles laying around. We start talking, and turns out it's a trap. What ensued was the most epic Bible bash of all time. literal beams of truth and false doctrine flying around, casualties mounting, me and my companion defending our lives. they kept saying stuff like, "you came here to find truth, not to share it," and "we can feel the walls of your faith crumbling as we speak." it was actually kind of hilarious. Eventually me and elder K manage to escape, and then we went to teach Zena. I gave her a blessing of comfort which was actually so spiritual. after that we spent literally hours sorting through sistrict drama. I don't rlly wanna drag y'all into it, but one sister in particular keeps roasting the other sisters and there are lots of tears shed. i did not sign up for this๐
Also! baptizing Gracie on Saturday so that's hype. shoutout to elder Delange for the meme haha. latest word is Chile is opened, should take just a few months.
