This week was pretty awesome to start off in possibly my last area. Gilmer is pretty awesome and we had a lot of really cool stuff happen this week. We were able to get in touch with a couple investigators we have been working with. We got to meet with someone really cool named Zach White this week. Elder Martin and Elder Wilson tried getting in touch with him a couple times down in Big Sandy. We went down there this week and met with him. However it was kind of crazy because he had twin two year olds with him that were crying a lot. We had a really good discussion with him and he is even a freemason! Yes, my hopes and dreams have been finally recognized by the Lord. Also he had a couple of Deadly Tortilla chips that he showed me. Well, it was made out of Carolina Reaper and I could not pass that up. I did it and well, my insides are destroyed once again. I can't wait to get more in the future.
We also met with Cindy and Colleen this past week. They are so prepared for the Gospel and even said that the Bible has been changed over a period of time. I am so stoked to meet with them again and they even want to read and pray to see if the Book of Mormon is true. Of course we had to clear up some things about our religion but it went pretty well. There was also a less active member and his girlfriend we were able to meet with this week. She seemed pretty interested and we helped her understand the purpose of the Book of Mormon. When we asked her if she would want to be Baptized by someone holding the proper authority she said it will be a minute before that happens. It is pretty cool and I'm hoping that we can have a Baptismal Date scheduled for this week because White Christmas is coming up in this mission. We are hitting hard at the doors and going all over the streets but of course Daylight Savings has to make the day last shorter so that isn't fun. I am really hoping we can find the power hours from Five to Eight to find people.
Other than that we had some people Passive-Aggresively Bash us at Taco Bell the other night so that was awesome. While Elder Martin was ordering they were talking trash about Missionaries knocking on their door and how they get tired of us. I almost felt like we should have talked with them but I did not want to get into that mess. Also we had MLC This past week. It was probably the best meeting I have been in my life. We have a goal as a mission to have 100 convert Baptisms in the Month of December and I know that we can make it. Also I was talking to Sister Dalton with some other missionaries there where they commented that my hair looked like Matthew McConaughey. They all agreed so that was a little interesting. Too bad I already shaved my hair today so there goes that hairdo. I guess I am some other actor now? Anyways I hope you all have a great week and I'll email you all again soon!
Also, I bought boots last Monday at Cavenders. They are Ariat Work Boots but I'll probably wear them every once in a while to church as well. I'll send you a picture of them.
