MLC Week

This week was oddly regular... I guess. I mean Tuesday we had our regular district meeting, Elder Whilhelm ( my District Leader) is the best ever so that was awesome! Wednesday was MLC Prep and Thursday was MLC. We have mission tour coming up so lots was in preparation for that. Elder Dube of the 70 is coming to our mission!!!

Friday we helped President Taylor with transfers. Saturday we had a regular day. Sunday was regular until the evening. Then we had to make a run up to the desert to hep some missionaries who could see a wild fire from their back window. Nothing adverse happened, just some safety precautions was all. They are back in their area's safe today.

I have received requests for boring tracting stories. I will send two this week. So here it goes!

This one time we tracted like 3 or 4 streets in a row (and these are valley streets not desert streets, so we are talking like 15-20 houses per street, not like 4) and only 3 doors answered and one was a member who we didn't know lived there.  hahahah

This one is slightly better.

One time I was one exchanges and we were tracting and this guy answers the door and his Opening line is "Oh. Do you believe in the Trinity?" We get this alot actually and so we are kinda like oh not again. this is how the rest of the conversation went.

" We believe in God the Eternal Father and in his Son Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost.

"Ok good, a like young men who a raised with a proper Christian background. (we start thinking yay he's not crazy) But let me ask you this: Do you believe that Jesus and Satan are brothers?"( yup nope this guy is crazy)

" well you see sir we believe that we are spiritually brothers and sisters. So like Me and you and brothers and you and I and Jesus are brothers. so under that understanding Satan is our spiritual brother."

"(Insert any amount of random nonsense regarding fallen angels and separate specious of people and angels and blah blah blah) And that is why  Mormons and wrong!!!)

So i proceed to break out the new pass along card the church made with the most Catholic looking Jesus i have ever seen the Church endorse and convince the man to watch a " non-denominational video about the Resurrection." hahaha

Well that is about it. Tomorrow I will pick up my new companion so her can help us with transfers.

I will also most probably email on Saturday, because of transfers, but i really don't know when I will email next.

Ofa Atu!
