Hey y'all,
Hope y'all had a happy thanksgiving full of wonderful food. This week for me was a wonderful week. Monday we helped a less active put up Christmas lights and he gave us money to go out and get a super delicious pizza. Tuesday, we packed and road tripped to Tallahassee. On our way there we had to go to the bathroom so we pulled off to do so. It just so happened that the exit we took was the exit it Bonifay! hahaha I wonder how that happened ;) Took a little detour and got to see Father (LD) Henderson! We knocked on the front door and Tanya answered and said, "Elder Funk! You are not the missionaries we were expecting" hahaha Come to find out that they were feeding the sister missionaries that night....awkward....So we stayed and chatted for a few minutes and got to meet the sisters in Bonifay and talk with them. Great time. So glad that I got to see LD again. I miss him like crazy! Anyway, we continued on to Tally and slept over with some other missionaries.
Wednesday, it was a long morning. After much agonizing pain and "labor" I am now the proud father of Elder Magnusson. haha He is from just outside of Sacramento, California. Funny part is he served a mini-mission in Santa Rosa, California and then got reassigned to here so he came pre-trained! hahaha I knew there was a catch behind me training ;) He is a great guy and all ready to dive into the work. We road tripped back and did some teaching and ended the night going to a member's to see if they would come to a lesson with us and we ended up getting voluntold that we are going to be playing the ukulele in accompanying the youth in Christmas caroling on Wednesday this week. So they gave us a ukulele to practice. I have been jamming on that thing all week.
Thursday, We started the day helping Brother Kanupke deep fry a turkey for thanksgiving! Those things are the best! Not the healthiest but definitely the best turkey I have ever had. We had a good lunch with them and a few others and then Brother McGovern, a less active, came and took us to his house to eat with his brothers. Funniest dinner appointment ever. Five guys in one room. Conversations get interesting hahaha.
Friday, we went out and worked. Nothing too special. We did the same thing Saturday. Yesterday we had a good time at church. I had the privilege of teaching Sunday School about the Second Coming. So I just turned to the book of Revelations and read a few things and just talked a lot about that. Priesthood got interesting with a couple of the brothers getting a little political and then getting called out by a member. hahaha good times. After church we didn't get too much done but it was a fun day. So yeah great week. Hope y'all have a great week this week and are grateful for all that we have been given. I know I am definitely more grateful after this week and every week on my mission. I love y'all and pray for ya daily.
Love,
Elder Funk
Remember who you are and what HE stands for!
