Week
Update,
This
week has been a pretty good one, nothing too much exciting really happened. Here
are a few highlights though.
On Sunday one member who is moving
brought a friend who seemed pretty open to attending church, at least I hope he
is. We were able to get his phone number and he said he would be interested in
attending conference which would be really good!
On Thursday we were on a subway and
were chatting with this one man who had a Book of Mormon and was studying with
the elders, but when hurricane Sandy hit he lost his Book of Mormon and contact
with the missionaries. So he was pretty excited to see us, we talked to him for
quite a while, he said he was going to come to church on Sunday, but he didn't
show up which sort of stunk. But hopefully he will come to conference. He
seemed like a really nice guy!
Yesterday
we were cruising around and a CNN reporter asked if I could do a interview, I
told the interviewer I don't really know what the heck is going on in the
world. And thanked her for the offer. But as I look back I wish I would have
just gone with it! Oh well!
Friday
night we were up in Inwood and we got into a nicer apartment
building and got to teach a guy which was pretty rad, usually we don't get let
inside. He had some interesting questions. But they were all genuine. He told
us about his life, he is going to DC in April, to protest the government and he
is planning on getting arrested which is pretty unique. He is also a physical
trainer. We had a good chat with him, and he told us that we shared valuable
information with him he would share some valuable info with us, so he taught us
about how to buy good shoes to walk in, and also this back/spine stretch we can
do to help after walking around all day. I got to be his demonstration. It was
a pretty good stretch, but as I was stretching I had one of those what is going
on with my life moments, where I'm sitting in some random guys apartment in
Manhattan, he is sort of drunk and I'm laying on a yoga mat with my legs
stretching up a closet door, while I'm trying to "crush" this guys
foot will my tailbone. Regardless of how weird the situation was, it was a
great stretch. I felt great for the rest of the night.
Easter
was really good, It was a pretty normal day for us. We went to church, had a
great time. For dinner a member called us and gave us some left over’s from
their family’s dinner, and it was way good we had lamb, beets and salad, which
was all really good! I got a bumping Easter package also which was really
awesome! Today we are going to go hit the big international car show. It's the
same one we hit last year so it should be fun! Hope you all have a great week!
