"Hiii, it was a pretty great week! So many things happened that if you were a missionary you would be so happy for me, but since you are just normal people it's not as exciting. Like we have 7 new investigators! That is super exciting but it really doesn't mean much to you. Just know souls are being saved in Vegas.
Monday we get told by the Elders that one of their investigators is in their area so we have a lesson and pass her over. We set her for baptism, teach her, get her to church, and then she tells us that she gave us the wrong address and she's actually in another missionaries area. So that was eventful. This lady could honestly be taught by a Sunbeam class and get baptized though. She's so prepared.
My favorite investigator. The addict. Had a seizure in church. Right during sacrament. We were sitting with our new investigator, and we didn't see him come in. Then I saw him sitting all alone, so I was upset because the ward is the worst at fellowshipping. Then as I am sitting there so annoyed he has a seizure. Somehow I just knew. All we could hear was crazy sounds like a rabid cat was loose and some how I knew. I turned to Sis W, and said he had a seizure and sure enough. He is such a good person. Some men took him out and called the paramedics, and the first thing he said was "I'm sorry." then he was so funny because the paramedic asked to see his tongue, and he said "I didn't bite my tongue, because I don't have teeth haha" We all had a good laugh. He hasn't smoked in 2 weeks and is going strong!
So I think everyone's life goals is becoming more Christlike and one way we do this is by developing Christlike attributes. Well a crazy thing is happening right now. All of our investigators exhibit so clearly one Christlike attribute. The addict is so humble, the lady who is moving all around is charity, another is knowledge, and another is patience. It's insane to me how clearly these people show so powerfully one Christlike attribute. I think it's a sign that I need in improve all across the board. Right now I am working on repenting immediately. Like as soon as I notice I do something wrong then I say a little prayer in my head. So far so good. It's good because I feel better but bad because I notice what a sarcastic jerk I am. Good thing we all have time to improve."
