OK.
(E. De Leon is an AP out hurr and I seriously have to call him probably like 40 times a day and apparently I don't even greet him I just go "ok....can we donate plasma as missionaries...yes or not....?" SO now when ever he or anyone sees me they just start "OK....." )
So OK. I'm starting this letter now fo'real.
THIS WEEK. what even happened. I DONT KNOW.
So many things I want to emphasize but so little time.
NINE new INVESTI'S THIS WEEK! For those of you who DIDNT serve in Wichita...THAT is unheard of.
Literal Zone record we were like WHAAAAAAAAAA?????????????? so.freakin.blessed. Did nothing to deserve that but OK WE'LL TAKE HANDOUTS FROM DA LORD! #nocomplaints
#1/2: Our Bishop pulled us aside last week and was like "Hi, meet Bro Goodman. He was less-active for his whole life and now is returning to the Church and would like his children to be baptized and also his wife to take the lessons. I'll let you two work out details but you're welcome. BYE!"
LITERAL QUOTE. I'm like OK WORSHIPPING YOU!?!?!?
SO Bro Goodman = DIDNT EVEN KNOW HE WASNT FULLY ACTIVE!?!? like we win least-observant-missionary award. He comes to Gospel Principles like EEEVERY week and would be studiously studying the mannual and we're like "oh...cool ........a member who actually reads the mannual......rare...................anyway yes you can totally pass around our meal calendar...."
ULTIMATE FAIL.
His family is AWESOME and him AND his wife are Doctors so like most beautiful house in Wichita/fed us nector from the Gods Cambodian food lunch??? Anyway two kids Abby and Matt OBSESSED WITH THEM best lesson ever they are literal geniuses! #soblessed
#3,4,5,6,7,8 <---- THAT is real. All in one stop. SO the typical 30 min pudge. Ended appointment early, next appointment not for 30 min....to little of time to drop by someone....too much time to show up early or make phone calls......so we decided to try some less active/unkown people on the ward list in the area.....got HOPELESSLY lost.....looked down at the GPS and realized there was someone else living right around the corner! So visit....not home. I am like DETERMINED that someone in that area is ready to learn. So try like every.house.on the street....basically found a Jehovah's Witness COMMUNITY!?!?! because they were ALL Witnesses I'm like WHAT.THE. So we are about to get in the car....me and my comp BOTH look at the house across the streeet.....*keys back in purse* ......knocking.
GIANT man with tons of hair answers: MEET FAHAD. Speaks 10% of English....from Saudi Arabia....moved here for school...."JESUS.....CHURCH........PHONE NUMBER??" got it. Kind of laughing walking away like ...did he even understand what he just signed up for??----WHEN we realize...this is a DUPLEX..so we try the other door.

TOTES reminded me of Keyunga?? (Keunga?? Kehunga? whatever Crooks adopted Kenyan son) anyway AWESOME lesson on Saturday....found out he is semi-homeless........and by semi- I mean full on homeless......BUT he just got a job last week so is working like ALL day every day...............and it was going GREAT.................until last night when he called us asking to talk to me and confessed his love and told me the Lord told him in a vision that I needed to be his wife.............................*cue Elders now teaching him for the rest of his life....ever* #DEVASTATED but also just like not even surprised because my AFRICAN CURSE LIVES ON! Seriously I don't get it. every.single.time. #Afrikaansloveme
