This week I got a new
companion!!! His name is Elder Cox and he is from American Fork, Utah!!!
He’s super tall (like 6´6) and ginger. We are super good friends and we
have like almost the same time here in the
mission. I got here like six weeks after him! He is a zone leader too.
We have been working super hard, and we are finding some super awesome
people!
Cool experience,
yesterday we were working super hard in the afternoon and we weren’t
having very much success. We were a little frustrated, really sunburnt,
and we didn’t know what to do haha. So we decided to
say a specific pray to find a family to start teaching! We asked that
we could find a family of 3 or more that are willing to go to church and
let us teach them before we went home for the night! We started working
super hard, and we worked for like 2 hours
straight and didn’t really have any success still. We decided we were
going to work till it started to get dark and then go home. It had
started to get dark, so we were walking to the main road to go home, but
we were really far from home. So as we were walking,
we saw this young guy and girl in a car driving by us. They looked at
us and then we both at the same time asked them if we could have a ride
home. They said sure and we jumped in! We asked them where they were
going to see if they could drop us off a little
bit closer to the house, but turns out that they were just looking for a
license plate that had fallen off their car. They were actually just
going to go home (in the other direction) but they saw us and waited for
some reason. They were super nice and offered
to take us all the way home! It was a brother and sister and they asked
us what we do and we told them everything. Then we asked them if we
could visit them and they said yes, gave us their direction, phone
number, and said we could pass by two days later
to teach their whole family, there are eight people. We then asked them
if they would be interested in going to church with us. They said that
they would love to, because they have always wanted to but have never
had a church to go to. They are super awesome
and they are the answer to the prayer that we said!
Pictures… selfie with my
hat that I bought this week, best purchase I’ve ever made.
