Flake

Hey all! So I'm going to apologize rn (rn means "right now") this email prolly isn't going to be super exciting. Lots of investigators being flaky and stuffs like that. But it's been great! No worries! 😁

Monday we went to the trampoline park and it was amazing and ended up getting Pizza Hut all you can eat again, with a bunch of missionaries. That was a good time. It feels quite unpleasant after eating all you can eat pizza. But so good. 😜

Last p day.

Tuesday we had a great last district meeting of the transfer. It was so good, the spirit was so strong and it was nice to end off the transfer with such a great meeting. (: that whole afternoon slash evening me and Elder Stiff tracted and tried by loads of people but nothing really happened. That is until that evening. 😂 we knocked on a less active mans door. He opens door and says "I'm on crack cocaine and heroin come on in!" Then he turned around and walked back into his house. So obviously we went in. 😜 haha he was a funny man, has a thousand old records, talked about music and stuff. He was nice. (:

We found a homie.

Wednesday we did some service with the zone leaders for a man named Abdul. It was a good time. He's restoring this old restaurant that's super crazy mingin. Abdul is a funny funny man, it was fun. 😜 me and Elder Stiff traveled ages out to Holywell for tea with a less active family. It was great they are super nice. Long bus ride though. We then had ward coordination that night. Haha so we got back that night and tried by an investigator of ours. We had a great quick little lesson with her on her doorstep and we were heading back to our flat and got back at about 9:15. Our apartment complex has this electric keypad thing to get into the building. And it was broke. 😐 we tried for like 10 minutes to get in but to no avail. We decided to go buy some chips cause we were starving and hope it would be working by the time we got back. Chippy was closed and it wasn't working when we got back. So we snagged a bus and went and slept over with the zone leaders. So that was a good time. 😜 Quite the adventure.

When Elder Van Dyken's sweater holds your cereal for you.

Thursday we cruised on back to our flat and luckily somebody had propped open the front door. So that was good. We weekly planned, then tracted and tried by with no luck. Can't really remember what else. 

Friday we did some tracting which was no good. We tracted Laurels drive. 😜 shout out to me mum. We had tea with the Sinclair family that night which was great. They are super nice. We met a super great lady that night! Her name is Julie and she really needs some help in her life. She's been struggling with life's stuff lately, and gladly took a Book of Mormon. We will see her again this week. (:
Derek's baptism.

Saturday was Dereks baptism! It was so great. Derek is such a good man, and will make a great member. He is so stinking solid. (: 2 people told me and Elder Stiff that they would come to the baptism and even had lifts sorted but didn't show. That was lame. But it was a great service. (: we saw Dave again that night. He's always such a homie. (:


4 people told us they were going to be coming to church on Sunday and nobody showed up. But then right before the sacrament started Martin and Camilla showed up! So that was great. Super good to have them there. (: We saw Chris again that evening. He is a great man and believes strongly in Jesus Christ. But we're probably going to give him a month or two because for some reason he keeps saying he will be baptized when is health is back. So he's just putting it off. Our area Book told us that it's been going like that for the past 5 years. So we will give it a little break and see how that goes. (: 

Zone leaders told us what's up for transfers! We staying. (: the whole district is staying except for Sister Carle who is leaving. also shout out to elders Korth and Cepeda who are gonna be training.  Legends. 😎

Chillaxin.

Today has been great so far. It's been super chill. We had a fire with some food at the zone leaders flat on their back patio. It was way fun. Elder Van Dyken is the most qualitiest singer and guitar player I've ever heard in my entire life, so for a while we just chilled listening to him. (: that's my week! Love you all and have a great week. (:
