And the Work continues

If I could sum up my week in a six word story it would be: "General Authority. Chastisement. Trailer Park Drama"

Elder Evans from the Seventy came and spoke to us. I used the word "chastisement", but it wasn't really. It was weird, he'd "correct" us, but we never felt so loved. He's truly a man called on God. He talked about fasting. A lot of people think that if they fast and show Heavenly Father that we're willing to give up and sacrifice food, that he'll bless us with what we want. This is false doctrine. We fast to show God that we're willing to sacrifice food so that we can come into accordance with his will and do what he asks us, regardless of whether that's what we want or not. It's good that Tyler and Allison came to church. I'm excited to see where Jared goes. He's going to kill it. Tyler still believes, I know he does. He just needs to opportunity to come back without judgement. It's good that Ethan is putting a ring on it. Manti, I assume. Meet the Mormons was dope, right? I told you about my buddy McConkie's family and friends and what not are in that, right?
Things in the hood are...rolling. Haha. Jesus is still being dumb and really, really, really arrogant. And his girlfriend is still Coo-Coo for Coa-coa puffs. Serena had another interview with President Mullen. She has to wait 2 months to get baptized. But the silver lining is that I have someone to consistently teach for two months. Haha. She's super solid. She's going to go to the temple within a year, for sure. We picked up a new investigator named Reyanna. We just call her Rey. She's really cool. She grew up Seventh Day Adventist, but we're going to make her Mormon. Haha.
Tell Jared happy birthday for me and that's he's old now that he's twenty.

If Rampton bounces in two weeks when transfers are up, then I'll drop him. Rampton is still really green in a lot of ways and doesn't want to drop him because he's invested a lot of time into him, but if they're not going to progress, don't waste your time when you could be talking to the ones that will progress. The general consensus is that we'll be getting iPads in December. How's the fundraising going? Haha.

I probably won't get transferred. I just got here. I might train next transfer, though. Then after that I'll probably get transferred.

Love you guys,


Cody
