Picture 1- A.... bowtie...?
Hello there! How are you? I've been good this last week, but it was a bit of a hard week. Lots of things cancelled (what else is new, haha) but that's ok. This week is going to be really good though! As of yesterday, we have NINE MEAL APPOINTMENTS this week!!!! :D We have a few with members who are bringing their friends, and a few with less active members. So I'm well chuffed for that! But that's not the only reason it will be a better week, there will be a lot of other good things. :)
Recently I've been studying the teachings of Joseph Smith, and I've got to say that they are just great! They make me really think about, and then afterward, understand things I've been thinking about. I really love what he says about missionary work, and also how to live in peace with others. So I'm studying both of those things and am trying to use them in my missionary work. One thing he said was that he "never felt to force his doctrine on anyone, but he loved to see truth overcome prejudices" and I think that's a really good thing. Once we find the truth we should offer it to people! And then it's up to them if they continue to search for the truth or not.
Hmm, well I honestly didn't have too many funny stories this week. Oh, except for this one! We met this 67 year old guy who used to be a world class boxer! He stood on his head for us, haha! He was in the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. Dad, maybe you remember those, haha. :D But that was a pretty cool experience, seeing a 67 year old man stand on his head. He also offered to train us to box! So maybe after my mission I'll come and train to be a world class boxer? Who knows! :D
Well, that's about all I got this week. But next week I'll tell you the weirdest or best thing I ate at those 9 meal appointments. :) Alright love you guys, bye!
