Born the Boy of the Corn




Funny: This week we got to go down to Polacca for a baptismal interview. While we were down there, we met a man who was convinced that our souls were actually represented best by vegetables. After some discussion he determined that my soul vegetable was black corn. A member thought it was so funny that he got me a piece of black corn. So now I will forever be known in Polacca as Elder Black Corn Boy.

Spiritual: The Lord works in mysterious ways. We finished a lesson and we were going to evaluate it but for some reason we drove to a random street to evaluate there. As we were evaluating a kid knocked on our window. He told us that his mom was home and that she wanted to meet with us. We had a great lesson and as we were walking back to the truck, we saw a group of kids playing ball and so we challenged them to a game, after we smoked those 12-year-olds in ball they told us that their aunt had met with the missionaries a while ago and wanted to meet again. We set up an appointment and finally got to evaluate those lessons. It was amazing!

Where I am at: We had zone conference and interviews this week. I have found that the longer I have been out the less I know. The focus was on finding and on building the faith to see miracles. It was a great conference! We also have had a crazy week. It seems that on those weeks that we the missionaries get on a spiritual high those in the area get pounded by Satan. We had a week that was filled with helping those we are teaching to see that they can overcome whatever it is that they are struggling with.
