Trashcan and Finding

Hey everyone! Not too much happened this week. Haven't found any new investigators, and have had to drop Quinton, so as far as the work goes, we need a miracle to happen.

Monday, we played speedball, and afterward I almost passed out, because I was so dehydrated. So the rest of the night, I rested and just tried getting my strength back.

Tuesday, we had no appointments so we were outside trying to find people to teach all day. Wasn't very successful sadly.

Wednesday, we had district meeting. Later in the day, my companion and I were biking, and I witnessed one of the funniest things in my life. I had just turned around to check on my companion, and I just see him ride his bike straight into a huge trash can. He was staring right at it, and still hit it :). The trash can fell over, and everything inside it fell out. He fell straight on his face, and as he was getting up, the first thing he said to me was, "Elder, I'm not even sure what just happened" with his helmet on the side of his head :). He hurt his leg a little, and busted his bike. He said he thinks he was either day dreaming, or he passed out, but I seriously couldn't stop laughing for a good 10 minutes.

Thursday, we had service at Hill Air Force base thrift shop again. After that we tried going to get my companions bike fixed, but they were closed.

Friday, we had our weekly huddle, and afterward we finally got Elder Dantas' bike fixed. That night, we had a lesson with Angel, our progressing investigator. We taught him about the gospel of Jesus Christ, and read from the book of Mormon with him, since he has trouble understanding some of it. While we were biking home, we met a super sketchy guy that talked to us for 20 minutes about demons and ghosts. He was nice, but I think he was super confused lol. Some of the stuff he said was contradicting.

Saturday was SO LONG. Like Tuesday, we were just out finding all day, and it was 90 degrees. I always thought Florida was hot, but dry heat burns man... I might have just gotten used to humidity in Florida, plus wearing church clothes all summer doesn't make it much better.

Sunday, we went to church! After church, we tried finding AGAIN and had no luck. Although we met a less active, named Brian, who was super nice and didn't mind us teaching his kids as long as they are interested. They weren't home, so were going to try and visit them again later.

The church recently put out a new Mormon message, called the music of the gospel. It's a super good video and I suggest all to watch it! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ju8S2vswhjY)

I hope everyone has a good week this week! Also, since my brother gets married this Friday, congrats to him and Kelsey! So sad I can't make it, but I’m so happy for you two. Love you all!

**Apologies for no pictures this week, I'll be sure to take more for next week!
