We had a good and not so good week. I got sick and have been a zombie for the past few days. haha. So we had interviews and training with President Mortensen on Tuesday. He introduced a new idea that we were all pretty skeptical about. He asked us what we do doing during the day. We all kind of looked at each other as to say. Hmm what do we do during the day? Truth is, there’s just not much to do. So he introduced the idea of "church tracting". So we’ve been going around to different churches during the day and offering service. It’s been a good experience.
On Friday we went to a mosque! We watched an entire Muslim service and got to talk to the imam (equivalent of a pastor) for about an hour afterward. We shared our conversion stories (his from catholicism to islam and ours to the church of Jesus Christ) It was an amazing experience. We were treated as celebrities and I can’t say enough about how amazing all the people were. We’re going to try to work together to set up ways that we can serve the community.
Last night we went out with Bro Martin in the ward and got to visit some of his friends that used to investigate and 2 of them said we could come back and teach them again. So we’ll see where that goes.
I’m sad I have to miss Brighton’s baptism, love that little guy! As far as Andrew’s baptism goes, I hope I’ll be home in time to be there! Anyway, I gotta go but I love and miss you all! Have a great week! :)
