Crawfish!!!

Hey friends and family!  This week was a good one!  It felt like we went to meetings all week, probably because we did.  We figured we went to 21 hours of meeting this week haha!  It was a lot but I really enjoyed it!

Tuesday was Zone conference up in Beaumont. We focused a lot on the Holy Ghost and how important it is in conversion. It was a lot of fun to see some of my old mission friends as well! After Zone Conference we got to go teach some kids in our ward and a couple of them haven't been baptized. They are a ton of fun and we are going back to see them tonight. 

We also had new missionary training which was in Kingwood so thats a pretty far drive for us. We stayed the night in Summerwood with my buddy Elder Storey so that was a ton of fun! And then the meeting was really good of course. I love to hear from President and he has a lot of cool insights to things. 

Friday was probably the best day of my mission because we got to have crawfish! I was super sketched out when I saw what they looked like but they are super good. Probably the best food I have had on my mission! It was a ton of work to get the tail and stuff off them for just a little bit of food but It was so worth it! We will probably go buy some live ones and cook them up since I'm converted. I literally felt like I was in another univerese it was a crazy dinner! 

This week we had our investigator that was supposed to have her baptism in 2 weeks drop us. They were not married and we were trying to explain to them the law of chastity and stuff and they got super mad and kicked us out of their home. They actually fed us that night but we made sure to have dinner first haha! But it was super sad because they brought all of their books and pamphlets we gave them back to us and said they were done. So looks like we will be doing some good finding this next week!

Sunday we had meetings all day again but I really enjoyed it. The spirit was super strong all day and I learned a lot from our stake presidency and the other people in our ward. 

Well that's all for this week! I'm so grateful for the things I have learned about the Savior here on my mission and I love serving and being served by the people in Texas. Love you all! 

Elder Cameron Larson 

Tell us about the family that took you to dinner (eating crawfish).

It was the first time I had ever eaten with them. They invited us because they figured out we hadn't ever had any crawfish after their child’s baptism. (it was right after Dallas baptism)

Did you get your Easter package?

Yes, I did get it thank you so much! 

Any new investigators this week?

Yeah, we got a couple. Nobody super solid but we will go back and see if they progress! 

How will you be spending your P-Day?

 We will prolly be going up to Beaumont to play ball with the Elders up there

What is the greatest “lesson” have you learned so far on your mission?

Well I've seen how important it is to trust in the Savior and his plan for us! He knows exactly what he is doing and when we follow his plan and put our trust in him we are the happiest!

What has been your favorite food you have had so far in Texas?

Crawfish!!

Where will you watch conference this weekend?

I think we will just be at the Church since we will try to get all our investigators to go there
