Mom and Dad,
So, what do I have to say for this week? I feel like this week has gone by faster than the other weeks because I feel like I still don't know anyone in this area. We still have investigators that I haven't met with, I fear that they won't be considered investigators much longer. This last week was way sweet with general conference and all. Man I was so excited to watch it. I thought there were so many good talks given. A lot that the members here needed to hear, but unfortunately most of them didn't hear them. It is the week before songran so most of the members just took it as a week off, SO SAD! I'm getting so excited for this thing. Everybody has been talking it up so much. I am jazzed to go get wet. We are going to go play with some other Elders in Bang Khae (the area right next to ours). There is a really popular road in our area that most people like to play on it is called Kaw Saan, but we have heard it is pretty inappropriate so we figured elders probably shouldn't be there.
I am sorry this week I didn't bring a camera to send pictures because today isn't a p-day, we are just taking an hour to email because everywhere will be shut on Wednesday. Also some bad news, I didn't send any pictures home in the box. So you won't be able to look forward to that so much, but I will make sure to send some home soon. That box was so cheap to send. I totally found some loop holes so it saved me about 70%. How awesome is that? I guess you can open it whenever you want but I didn't write any explanation of the stuff that was inside so you will have to wait until when I call for Mother’s Day to know about it. Or I guess I could always tell you in next week’s email. It's up to you if you want to open it or wait.
Your new toys sound pretty fun. I can't believe mom is going to use one. Talk about learning some new tricks. I guess that is a myth. Now you just have to figure out some way of using those to share your testimony, then President Uchtdorf will be uber impressed. Guess what the members made this week? So imagine this – A beautiful thick and chewy brownie, Mixed with caramel and all kinds of goodness. Then add cheesecake on the top of it. Yeah, I'm not lying. The bishop’s wife here is a baker so she just makes all kinds of desserts all the time. And then she brings them for the elders to eat. T hey just keep bringing me lots and lots of great things. Last week, I got a whole sheet of lemon bars. Yeah, It is amazing. And my companion doesn't have much of a sweet tooth. So I get to take the fill for both of us. Man I am so lucky.
I have a funny story about an investigator we taught yesterday. It is a lady she is about 40 years old her name is Nong, anyway she had convinced herself that the Book of Mormon was able to tell her, her future. So like as she was reading it she likened it to her life. But how she did it was to take on a character. She decided that she was Abinadi, and she read in the part where he was killed. So she took that to mean that she is going to die. Oh my goodness!!! That was a hard one too explain to her. We finally helped her understand that it wasn't a fortune telling book, that it was a book about Christ. It was CRAZY!
The movies this week are A Walk to Remember and The Princess Bride. Were you going easy on me this week?
Anyway I don't have a lot more time. But thanks for writing me. I am sure that next week I will have some awesome pictures to send. I love you guys. Have a good week.
