A Scout's Duty


Funny: This week I was able to do a baptismal interview for a very excited man named Bryan. He was so excited and so honored to be able to come to this interview that he decided to dress up for the occasion. What did he wear? His scout uniform of course! He can fully decked out in the official uniform with the official cowboy boots and hat. I love seeing people get so excited about the Gospel!!


Spiritual: Because of a strange set of circumstances we ended up in a very sketchy part of the hood. We were trying to find a potential but we think that she moved. After quite a bit of searching we were about to leave. The area had freaked out my companions and they were more than ready to leave. As we were getting into our truck I heard the sound of a girl next to us in an old rickety trailer. We went over and there we met Alex. Though not much came of the meeting, it didn't even last very long, the Spirit that was there was powerful. God loves all of us even though we might live in a very rough part of town, with enough piercings that you are more metal than skin, and hair that is the color of every flavor of snow cones He loves us! 

Where I am at: The work here is really beginning to see some progress. We are following the council of our leaders and the miracles that it is bringing are incredible. We also have the fun activity for the day of going to Connie Mac, which is the little league world series for baseball. It should be a really fun activity, expect pictures next week :)

I love you all, thanks for the prayers
Elder Black
