Heroes Among Us

Hey Y'all,
It's the final countdown!  I am coming to the close of my time here in the FTM and the Lord's service so you only got one more email coming after this.  Ye have been warned.
This week was a good working week.  We got to spend a lot of time finding including 4 hours in the pouring rain....wonderful experiences right? ;)  it was good don't worry.  Yeah that was pretty much the extent of our week.  hahaha Saturday we did go see an investigator who was "buzzed" to begin the lesson and then kept bringing out the beers.  We originally did family history with him and were going to transition him to the gospel but he just got more and more drunk and just started asking us about the church.  He is catholic.  We were talking about the priesthood how it was restored.  He proceeded to tell us that he knows the catholics don't have the priesthood cause "they jacked up that crap."  Hahahaha oh it was so funny.  The sad part is he was too drunk to make the connection we were teaching him so we are going to meet with him this week when he is sober.  He and his friend (both military men) did refer to us as hero's cause we go face our "opponent" from 5 feet away.  Going up to doors not knowing what's on the other side.  It was cool to hear that coming from a military man.  Super humbled to know what some people think of us and yet we are just doing the Lord's work the best we can. 
Sunday the ward have me give a farewell talk.  Cool experience but super sad at the same time.  I think they are trying to make me trunky. hahaha.  Then during the YSA group Harry (our recent convert) got to give his first talk!  He did a great job even having been up for the last 40 hours cause  of work.  What a stud!  Anyways that's all for now.  I'll be back next week!
