That Biting Cold Tho

Turns out the cold here just bites ya! But really though it was pretty dang cold this week. So RIP us on bikes. We actually found someone that had made kind of an ice castle thing in Vidor so that was pretty sweet!

Well last week I said that me and Elder Jones were going to try and work more with the less actives in our ward. So we got a list from our Bishop and had a plan of some things we wanted to happen to help these less actives come back to church but the problem is we weren't able to get in with any of them this week haha! We called and stopped by at 17 homes and we got nothin! But hopefully we get some buckets next week since everyone is going back to school this week.

We met this one guy when we were out on our bikes and he decided to let us in and teach him. He seemed pretty cool but then he turns out to kind of be a little crazy. He still thinks that the earth is flat, we didn't really go to the moon, and that we live in a box and someone is controlling us. But we taught a pretty good lesson to him and left him with the Book of Mormon so we will have to see where that goes! Then Brother and Sister Ashworth took us to Logans steakhouse in Beaumont and that was awesome.

We have been struggling to to get one of our investigators wives to sit in with the lessons. Its pretty frustrating because her entire family has converted and the only reason Randy doesn't want to get baptized is because it would break his heart to go to church without his wife in a church that focuses on family so much. Every time we go over to visit with them Dee pretty much just dodges us and leaves the room. So we prayed and prayed this week on what we could teach that would help her and the spirit confirmed exactly what we needed to teach! We went over to teach the lesson and she actually sat in!! She followed along with us in the Book of Mormon and she committed to read a chapter with her husband so that was awesome!

We met a lot of really cool people this week when we were out biking and trying to find people so I am excited to see if we will be able to get in and teach them this next week!

Thanks for all of the support and emails you guys send me! You guys are all the bomb! Next week are transfers so we will see what my fate is! Love you all!
