I had to come all the way to Delaware to eat a cactus

What a fun week we had! It's always fun sharing the gospel! NOt much happened but here are some funny stories and updates about our investigators.

AJ is great. We taught him the law of chastity and he's like 27 or something so that was a little awkward... The only other time I have taught it as a missionary was to Lila and she was like 67 so huge difference in what we had to emphezie. But it went great! We were even able to talk about the Word of Wisdom and he was disapointed about the no coffee thing but he said he would do it. Later that night we were on Facebook and he posted something awesome. I attached a screenshot so you all can see it too. The gospel is amazing! Even the law of chastity can relieve stress!

Taught Phanord, Alvin, Ercel, Julien, and Mel. Not at the same time of course but they are doing really well. We wish they would move a little faster but you can't drag someone through the gospel. You have to be patient. Sherman is still stuck in Maryland as far as we know which is sad but again, we will be patient. 

We were teaching one of our investigators who is like 28 or something. All of a sudden he goes, "It's my birthday this weekend" In my head I was like "that's great can we talk about the Book of Mormon some more. Thanks" I know I know. Not very Christlike but I just love the Book of Mormon. Anyway then he starts telling us about the different options he has to celebrate. And then he goes, "Are you guys busy tomorrow?" We told him we were and he was a little sad but then he gave us brownies so that was nice. 

We were over in this apartment complex where actually a lot of our investigators live and we were waiting for this member to join us. All of a sudden we hear yelling and look up and over by a different apartment building we see a FedEx truck and a UPS truck. Yep, you got it kids. The FedEx man and UPS guy are fighting. We just heard the end of the fight but it was probably the best part. The FedEx guy goes, "Whatever man, you don't even got that much stuff!" I promise you all, that is a direct quote.

I hope you all have had a fantastic week and have another even better week this week! I love each and every one of you and I know your Heavenly Father loves you even more. I know He knows each one of you and what you need better than you know yourself. Just remember that there are three people that love you. Heavely Father, Jesus Christ, and Sister Van Buskirk.
