Hey Everyone! I hope you had a great week!! :) It was pretty good for me!!
This week we had some fun stuff going on! Tuesday we went to Tarpon Springs because the Greeks have this thing called the Epiphany and basically it is a bunch of stuff leading up to a bunch of young men jumping in the Spring Bayou looking for a cross! So it's a little lake thing that they jump in! Whoever gets it gets luck for the family for a year or something cool like that! :) haha So that was pretty fun to watch!!
Wednesday I had to do an exchange with some Elders to do my first baptismal interview!! hahaha! That was pretty fun! It was an old 70 something year old lady with blue hair! She was pretty awesome though and has a pretty amazing testimony!!
Thursday through Saturday Elder Lake and I were in Tampa for trainings on life skills and fun stuff like that! :) Learned how to interact with people, how to sit, how to look good, and then they trained us on working with Members! Members are supposed to do basically all of the finding in case you didn't know. Read PMG! It says it right in there!
This morning we was tough though.. Last night we were texting an investigator that has been super solid. We were reminding him to read and pray about being baptized on the 7th of February. He said ok. But this morning he texted us a big long text saying he had a dream that he would lose all of his friends and a bunch of other stuff and he doesn't want to be baptized. So that was tough but I know his seed is planted and he will be ready sometime!
Yesterday we also got locked out of our apartment! Just in case you are ever in Palm Harbor and are trying to break into our apartment. Forget it! It's impossible! haha! :) Just a few words of advice. Thankfully the other Elders we live with were able to come home and let us in later that night! :) So it's all good!
Hope you all are having a great time! :) I love you all!!
