28 Lessons

06.13.11

This week we did a lot of finding. We have 12 new people which was awesome. One of the best ones was a guy named Thomas, he is awesome. We had some great lessons with him. He is a really cool guy who is just looking for some direction in his life and wants to know the truth. I'm excited to start working with him. We were finding in an area called Admirls landing and when we were walking from door to door. Two dogs started barking at us and they just followed us. They followed us for a good 30 yards. I took a video of it. Jim, a guy we found in that area, Jim, has 8 parrots all in the garage and making all kind of noise. Elder Montgomery taught district meeting on Wednesday and he did a good job. When we went back to Admirls landing we were at a house that we didn't knock the day before and we were on the porch. A big dog came around the house and was like 10 feet from us and was walking closer and we were like uhhh what do we do, we were cornered. He got really close to us and the lady answered the door and took the dog inside. Jack made us dinner this week and it was really good. He is from Jamaica and made us a some salt fish and acaii. That's the big news this week, we taught 28 lessons.

Funny Story-

Earlier this week, Tuesday morning actually, we were looking through are area book and we found a teaching record for Darsia. Well we called and she called back a little while later. She said we could go and see her so I was asking where she lived and she said Prospect! ok.... what part? on prospect drive! ok.... which house she said you know how to drive? i said yes we do! ok then 2nd house on the right, brownish house! so we went over there got on prospect drive and found the 2nd house on the left, called her and said ok we are outside she said no your not... she said you have to come all the way down prospect drive.... i said well you said 2nd house on the right..she said yes but i thought you knew how to drive.... i said we are driving right now..... then she said not how to drive...... HOLLY DRIVE lol it was hilarious, i don't know whats harder trying to understand someone with a hair lip trying to order Curly fries (Larry, the cable guy) or trying to understand a Jamaican :) but we found her so that's good! Wednesday I had to teach district meeting, you know me, wait till the last minute to prepare so I was doing that Tuesday night! but they all said that it was good and they said we could tell you really took time in preparing it not just a last minute thing!! hahaha but it was good! Yesterday after church ,we went to the Rhones for lunch it was really good. They had 2 different things of meat on the table. Randle kept poking at one of the plates trying to figure out what it was Sis Rhone starts busting up laughing she said your meat is on the other plate unless you like cow foot hahaha after that we were heading back to town and nature called so we stopped off at the Ritz Carlton to use the bathroom talk about a nice bathroom sheesh!!! we then were walking back to the car and there was a shopping cart by the side walk so randle jumped in it and i pushed him across the road it was like the Seinfeld where George is trying to get the frog game across the road it was hilarious!!! Sundays always bring excitement!
