So this last week was awesome. A lot of cool things happened. We did a whole lot of walking. Because of where our investigators live, in the morning we walk to one end of Mo Bay, we pack our own lunches and spend half the day doing that. One of the places that we go to is called Canterbury. It is known in Mo Bay as a bad area but when we go there we never have any problems. It's a pretty cool place, it reminds me a lot of Spanish town. Elder Conder walked around a corner to go pee and walked right into a ganja field. In a place like Canterbury you never know what is around the corner. Then we go to the other end of Mo Bay to a place called Cathrine Hall. Cathrine Hall is a really cool place and is a nice area. The 17 year old World Cup has been going on and a lot of the games have been played here. The USA played and beat Jamaica so the people here were giving us some stuff about that but it was all in good fun. Some people even thought that we were players. We are teaching a cool family right now. It's three brothers named Marlin, Marc and Ricardo. Their ages are between 19-25. Marlin is engaged to Alicia and they live together with their 3 month old baby. The baby is a tank! They are really cool and strong investigators. It's fun to go and teach them. On Wednesday we were walking to an appointment and saw this guy pull out a gun on this little kid, then the little kid ran away and the guy with the gun started running away down the street. Everybody was just sitting around like it was no big deal...Jamaica. We heard some more gun shots the other night and they were really close. It's funny because when guns are shot, nobody even flinches, not even us. It's just like "oh, okay." We have been going teaching a lot with the senior couple, the Sorensens. Elder Sorensen is one of the funniest men alive. The Sorensens are awesome. On Sunday, we had 6 of our own investigators at church which is awesome! We taught Melissa only one lesson and it was on Saturday. She wasn't sure if she was going to come but she was there on Sunday and she really liked it. Then the members brought 2 friends to church and they really liked it. We were able to set up a return appointment with them. Sunday was an awesome day. Our branch president here is a stud. President Lee is really funny. Today for P-day we went to this bird sanctuary and a chance to feed native Jamaican humming birds by hand. They would fly up to you and sit on your finger while they ate from a bottle you held. It was fun. Elder Peterson and Fangalua came up with some other senior couples so that was cool. I was able to get an awesome wallet I have wanted ever since I saw Elder Peterson's. His mom got one for me so that was legit. I tried making my own weight set out of water.....it didn't work.
