Speaking the Language

Sup Y'all

Pretty good week here in P-cola.  Monday we didn't do a whole lot so that was boring.  Tuesday we were able to meet with a couple of people and get to know them so that was fun.  Wednesday we went to the edge of our area (the ghetto) and went finding in there for a few hours and it was cool.  Met a super sick guy named Wayne who had gold teeth and a do-rag on and we are now homies. We also met a super great less active family named the Sledge's.  They are super chill and love having the missionaries over so we will probably be seeing them again this week.

Thursday we weekly planned, did some family history service, and then went to see some less actives who weren't home so we stopped by a members house, Bro Kimball.  He is awesome.  He is one of the most decorated Vietnam Veterans in the South Eastern United States!  He showed us all of his medals which included three purple hearts!  Super cool.  He and a friend took us out to Chick-Fil-A for some dinner.  Delicious!  Friday a ward missionary took us to a New York style pizza place and we got a couple of slices of Pizza as big as our head!  I was going to take a picture but then my stomach got the better of me and they disappeared.  sorry but not really.   We were able to see a couple of people and then came home and went out to dinner with a family to CiCi's Pizza.  So after that day I was kind of sick of pizza.  Saturday we biked almost all day and now I have a sore bottom.  Not very pleasurable.  We were able to see three less active families though so it was worth it!  

Sunday funday!  We went to church and had a good time there.  After we visited a super awesome less active.  He talked non stop for about an hour and a half.  He has one of the most solid testimonies that I have heard down here.  The only reason he doesn't come to church is because he has seizures and doesn't want to freak people out.  That night we went to go visit some more less actives and met this one woman, Dorothy, who was talking about us earlier that morning and then we showed up!  The Lord works in mysterious ways.  We are working on getting her back to church and she sent us home with some potatoes, onions, steaks and pork loin roast!  What a wonderful woman!  Well now that I have gotten myself sufficiently hungry I shall go and fill my belly.  Have a great week!
