Week two in the field - Week 5 - February 1, 2021

Hello everyone im back on my phone doing emails again. I'm not gonna lie I don't like emails. Imma do it for all of yall tho I'm doing it so yall can hear my experiences and stuff. Well we just had a bunch of lessons this week. Our area Castle Hills is on fire baby. Like people are referring themselves to us all the time to talk about the book of mormon or anything. People love talking about Jesus so this is the promised land for missionary work. We could have like 20 sets of missionaries here and still need more. 

I can tell you that there are some interesting people here though. Some of these people we talk to are crazy and are just tripping but it makes things interesting. This week we were doing service for this old lady she had to be over 90. It was me Elder Hungerford and Elder Stewart. Bc my trainer and Elder Stewart's companions are zone leaders they had a meeting, so we went and did service for this old lady. We had to help this lady walk bc if she fell it would've been bad it took about 30 minutes to go 30 steps so it was crazy long. But once she sat down she asked for a blessing thank goodness I had my oil, I almost left the house without it then thought we might need this. So we went and grabbed the oil and I did the annoiting of the oil then Elder Stewart did the blessing. Then we went and cleaned up all her branches and raked leaves super quick and easy. 

Then imma skip a few days but we just had lessons those days but nothing fun happened so we will skip them. Then on Saturday we got a call from the bishop and one of the speakers couldn't make it so guess who had to give the talk? Ya it was me so I gave a yesterday. Yesterday we taught  some guy named Frank. I've never seen frank before. He comes outside and he's all tattoed up and has a wife beater on and stuff. He was awesome tho. He kept called us his "N" words and kept dropping the F bomb but nothing you can do about it. Then we had dinner at one of the members houses and they are insanely rich I almost felt awkward bc I didn't know how to act. Well sorry I don't know if I should've told you what Frank was saying but whatever. 

Ohhh I almost forgot. Elder Wallin had a baptism in his last area Saturday morning so we went to that and it was in Spanish but the spirit was so strong it was amazing. I haven't felt the spirit that strong since I went to the temple. But yes this gospel is true everyone. If you want to know if its real. Live it, read your scriptures, and pray. I can promise you that you'll get an answer to that question. So I challenge you if you aren't already doing those things start, START NOW. It's literally the biggest blessing ever. Well love yall
