This week has been awesome!!!! We had an extra P day
on the fourth of July! We watched a parade, watched fireworks, played
volleyball, and just had fun with friends!
Elder Porter and I have been working hard to find more
people to teach and so far we have had success! Last night we had a really
great lesson with a Part Member family in our area. The dad is a member and he
wants to be active so much! Every time we come over he is giddy with
excitement. His wife and kids are not members but are super nice and excited to
learn more! We really connect with them and are excited to teach them more.
This week we fell out of contact with Juan. He got
kicked out of his girlfriend’s house and he went off the grid. We tried to
contact him on his phone and nothing was working. Let me just say that I am
definitely the son of a detective. The only two pieces of information we had
was that he had a job at a research center and had a brother that lived
somewhere in town. So we had a member look up the phone number to his place of
work. We gave it a call and asked if Juan was there. They said he wasn't
working right now and that they couldn't give us any more info than that. So
all we got from that was that he was still in town. We were going to stake out
that call center until we saw him. But then I had an idea, I know it was
definitely the Holy Ghost whispering to me. So we grabbed the phone book. We
searched for Juan's last name and got a hit. It was a long shot but we decided
to go for it. We called the number and asked if Juan was there. After talking
to the person who answered the phone for a few moments, explaining ourselves he
told us that Juan was there and put him on the phone. WE HAD FOUND JUAN!!!!! It
was so cool!!!! I definitely felt like Sherlock Holmes afterwards! We set up a
time to meet with him and we are excited to see him soon.
I know that the Holy Ghost is real! That he does help
us when we don't know what to do. He tells us when things are true. We have had
really neat experiences this week and are looking forward to this new week!
Happy Birthday Grandma Starr!!!! And Happy Late
Birthday Grandpa Boushley!!! I love you guys!!!
Oh!! Some cool new developments have been taking place
in the mission field. Starting immediately we are now allowed to wear Khaki
pants!!!! I have no idea why but we are! Also starting soon we will no longer
be allowed to wear Backpacks. We will be switching over to satchels, possibly
for the safety of the I pads we will soon be getting, or to help with back
problems. I'm not sure. But NO MORE backpacks....
Well that's all I have for this week. I love you all!
Love,
Elder Rash
