I was trying to think of a good April
fools joke to tell you but... couldn’t come up with anything, oh well. It doesn’t
even exist here. But there is a day that is like it in December... Anywho, well
I got some good news. Elder M. told me that Felix is going to go to the temple in
the beginning of June to get his endowments so that means I’ll get to go. yay.
Tuesday. Just one of those
wonderfully slow days in the mission. I mean even for our meeting with the
stake president he didn’t show up. But it’s all good, you got to have a few
days like that every now and then.
Wednesday. So we did exchanges, I
went with Elder C again. Pretty good day, someone gave us free ice cream. But
still not a lot of people were home, mostly I think it’s for the holiday.
Thurday. Back with my companion. We
went to teach a reference. The lesson
went well, he didn’t live in the area so we had to pass the reference.
Friday. Exchanges, this time with Elder
P. Poor guy, he has like a week in the mission and he doesn’t speak anything.
But it was really good because I was able to help him out a lot with some the
discouragements he has had in these first 2 weeks. We taught the parents of a
missionary and it was a great lesson. I feel like a pretty powerful missionary
when I teach them because the sister always cries. But I don’t think it’s so
much for the teaching, but that we remind her of her son in the mission and she
misses him. But I’ll keep living in my fantasy world that I teach so powerfully
that I make people cry haha.
Saturday. Well we found a number of
less actives that we had never meet before. It’s amazing how many people get
offended in church. It’s kind of sad. For example in one of the lesson we were
talking and they said they didn’t go because of work. I felt that was not the
reason. So I just asked them if they were offend in church and they said yes. I
think both sides can be are wrong. It made me think of this talk http://www.lds.org/general-conference/2012/10/what-shall-a-man-give-in-exchange-for-his-soul?lang=eng
Sunday. Normal Sunday. We had a
couple of lessons. We had a great lesson with a brother who I assume was offend
by the bishop. He hasn’t gone in like a month, but his wife asked us go with
him. It’s amazing how talking about the atonement can really affect someone.
That’s about it!!!
Love you all
Elder Curtis Wigington
