We knelt down in the middle of the road and prayed that someone would let us into their house...

So crap this is going to be a short email because I have to go back to the doctor.....................

haha its not for me it my companion, he is like getting a blood transfusion or something. It’s pretty cool.

Short story for the week:

We were having a hard time... no one has let us into their house on the first knock on my mission so far. So we prayed. We knelt down in the middle of the road and prayed that someone would let us into their house. So we knocked on the next door.

DEEDEE answered it and let us in. She is a plumber who is awesome and her husband is interested in the gospel too.

Before she let us in though, we had to clear a few things up about Mormons. Really people think we are disgusting people and I would too if I had the knowledge they did about us. She thought we were Satan worshippers who married multiple 12 and 14 year old girls. I finally understand why people really are afraid of us. I would be too. I would want to run away. But really we are not any of that, we are Christians. Who are doing our best to follow Jesus Christ and return to our father, God.

So the message today is to pray. It works and it is easy.

Here are a couple pictures of my week because I don't have enough time to explain it.

  1. Love his courage! It is so sad that people think that we (15 million) LDS people are so strange and disgusting!
