Mom,
Things are going well here! We
had an interesting week! It's always different after a baptism because
you have to go back to the drawing board and find new people to teach
and such.. So we've had some cool experiences this week as we've been
trying to do that.
The first one was after we had gotten in
with a family and talked and prayed with them. As we were leaving the
drive-way, a man on a motorcycle stopped to talk to us. His name is Eric
and he has a shop of his own. We offered to come help him at his shop
and he was totally cool with that! So the next day we went to his shop.
He's teaching us all about Motorcycles! How to ride, fix and tune up. He
said that once we're totally done with the bike we're working on, and
after he tests it out, He'll let us ride it up and down in the back
parking lot! It's a really cool experience and he asks questions about
our church as we go!
On Saturday we went to a place called
Shane's Rib Shack
and they were giving away free ribs to the first 100 people to get
there, so me and Elder Hastings went at 9:30 and finished up studies and
contacted people while we were waiting! It was really fun! We got
t-shirts with the number we were in line and pictures! I was number 11
and Hastings was number 13! It was super fun!
Friday we had
Elder Stanley G. Ellis of the Seventy come to our Zone Conference to do
his mission tour. He talked a lot about how much faith really plays into
doing missionary work! A lot of the times, we have to act on spiritual
promptings just to show the Lord our willingness to do so. The outcome
may not show right away. But as we continue to do what the spirit
directs, we see miracles happen in our lives! One of these miracles came
from looking hard for someone new to teach. We found 2! Kimberly and
her mother, Clara Smith. They have a baptismal date for the 22nd of
June! They're super awesome and really willing to learn!
We'll see how they progress as time goes by...
Hope all is going well for ya'll! I love and miss you!
ELDER BOMAN
