We had zone conference, and learned a lot about obedience there. We had a good lunch after!
It's also been raining quite a bit recently, which means that it's not as hot, but door knocking is a lot more wet now. We did a bit of door knocking in the rain, which is always fun, because people think your crazy and weird, which I guess we kinda are if you look at it from their perspective. Unfortunately, nobody felt like letting us in to get out of the rain, except for a member that we ran into.
Also, every Saturday morning we play touch rugby, with some members and other missionaries, maybe around 20 of us on average? Anyways, because of the rain, the field we were on was quite wet. And I guess the caretaker of the field wasn't to happy because he drove to the field, got out of his car, and started yelling at us to get off, because it was tearing up his grass. So yeah, getting yelled at is always a fun experience, and now we're just working on finding a different field.
We also got a call saying that someone and contacted the church, wanting their house blessed because an electrician had passed away in it. We went over and ended up having a great experience, getting to know the guy that wanted the blessing, and talking to him about who God is and the role he plays in our lives. We also found out that he was actually baptized as a member when he was ten.
We also helped some people move back into their home in a caravan park, which was kinda cool. It was really hot though, and we spent a while trying to fit this couch in over their porch and into their front door - so much fun.
Lastly, while visiting people with our ward mission leader, we were getting back into our car at night to head home, when we met some random guy and started talking to him. We ended up talking to him for about 20 minutes. He may have been high on something. Well, he most likely was. But it was kinda fun. He talked about his beliefs about being one with the universe, or something like that, and finding his own path in life. We shared about God and his purpose and plan for us, and what we do as missionaries, and we kinda exchanged our ideas and beliefs.
Anyways, I think that's it for this email. Not much else to talk about, and a lot of other things I have to do, so I'll end it here! Thanks everyone for your love and support!
