Hey everyone this week has been awesome! My companion and I
started off the week with our hair cuts that we gave to one an other! We ended
up buying a machine to cut hair this past Monday and we cut our hair after I
wrote all of you guys. I cut my companions hair first and it turned out better
than I thought it would for the first time cutting hair. My companion cut my
hair also and was for the most part cut good just one part on the side of my
head where he had cut a little to short. It was pretty funny!
Also this week my companion and I had a super awesome
experience that I want to share with you guys! We were at one of our the houses of our
investigators and they where drinking tea. We have been teaching them for
about 1 month now and we thought that they were living the word of wisdom
because they had started to but a friend ended up giving them a bag of tea so they
started drinking tea again. I asked to see if I could look at the bag to see
what the ingredients were. When they showed us the bag we knew that this type
of tea they can't drink. But long story short I ended up putting the tea in my bag
and we left. The family that we are teaching we have a close relationship so I
felt comfortable taking the tea. It was funny! We received a phone call about 15
minutes after we left and Getsemni called us and was laughing and was like where's
my tea. He asked if we could share a message the next day and also bring the
tea. We all had a good laugh and said yeah well bring it don't worry. Well we
where thinking because we really didn't want to give them the tea. We knew what
there favorite drinks and ended up thinking lets try to switch them. we ended
up buying the stuff and wrote some sticky notes to put on the containers to
give to them. After all was ready we said a prayer that our heavenly father
could help touch the hearts of especially Getsemeni and that the swap would go
as planned. We ended up switching them the things we had bought for the tea. I
know that are heavenly father hears our prayers and if we will have the faith
anything is possible. I know that our heavenly father touched the hearts of
this family and helped them realize that its important to live the world of
wisdom. They said that from now on they are just going to buy the other drinks
that they like more then tea because they know its not good for there
health.
Have a good week everyone
