This week. Haha... we just had a million weird things
happen to us. I'll give you just a little taste test with a few little
snippets from our week.
Last MONDAY we went to a
family home evening at this sweet sister's house. It was just really
funny. For some reason me and Sister Hughes got put at our own little
table away from everyone else. :) We had fish stomach soup. It just
feels like spongy stuff. Apparently it's a chinese dish. Anyway. We
were so full. Every meal feels like Thanksgiving when you eat at
someone's house. :) But because we were sitting by ourselves... we may
or may not have snuck a plate of rice back into the rice cooker and
just split one plate between us.
TUESDAY. We had a funny English class about
Cowboys. We told everyone to dress up like a cowboy. Only one person
and us missionaries did :) But it was still fun.
WEDNESDAY.
Was the weirdest day of all. Haha... we made a list of all of the
very odd things that happened that day... the list would include. Us
learning about someone that was lying to us. Ouch. Us seeing someone
throw up in a grocery store where we were eating lunch. Ew. (I
personally didn't look.) Us hearing a lot of really really weiiiiiiird
religious beliefs of an investigators mom. It was weird. The list went
on and on. But. It was an amusing day.
SATURDAY.
This one isn't weird. It's just awesome. WE went to a less active
woman's house who hasn't been to church in a very very long time. There
just happened to be an activity at the church. A cake making activity.
We invited her to go. She told us she'd follow us there, but she had
to shower first. Sooo... we just stood outside while she showered and
then went all together to the activity. It was a miracle.
SUNDAY.
Was a really cool day. Brother Moo got the gift of the Holy Ghost and
is now a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
There was also a really special baptism. That amazing sister I told
you about a couple of weeks ago. Well... her brother got baptized this
week. He has changed immensely. Again, I see it manifest primarily in
his smile :) There mother also came to church and was there for the
baptism. It was amazing. 
ALSO. Later... we went to a member's house for
dinner. And Elder Angkham caught this lizard. I was so scared when I
heard about these in the MTC. They're called Duke yeahs. Haha... they
can bit you and lock on. Elder Angkham says that one time one bit his
stomach. It took him like an hour to get it off. And it made him bleed
and tore his shirt. He also says he likes them. He caught it with a
string on a stick. I don't know how... but somehow. :) Haha. Great
times.
There is nothing like being a missionary. I
wouldn't give it up for anything. It is a joy to be here. If you ever
wonder if you should be a missionary. I think you should :) Jonathan.
You have to :) It's already in vinyl on the wall. I really do love it
though. I know it's true. I know that Jesus Christ is our Savior. I
know that this is His church.
I love you so much. So so much.
Have a wonderful week.
Love,
Sister Croft
