this week was a strange week. it had its
ups and it had its downs. sometimes the ups out number the downs. but
not this week. well actually we just have like one or two downs. i am
sure i could find way more ups then downs. but i just wanted to continue
the song. a canadian prize for whoever can tell me where that song is
from. i am glad to hear that grandpa is doing better. i hope everything
goes well with him.
ok here we go.
this is an up
i
went on a split with elder johnson. he is affectionately called baby
face johnson. look there is a picture to prove that it is not just a
clever name
he is a great zone leader who is no longer my zone leader. he got transferred. which reminds me.
i
am going into my 8th transfer which happens to be the halfway mark at
the end of the transfer. and i am going to .......... stay in chomedey
for a 5th transfer and i am going to kill elder duran. not literally,
this is his last transfer so i am his last comp. for the longest
duration of anyone of his comps.
ok so back to the split. it was fun we did a lot of
things. for example we went to the old folks home to do some service.
this time was pretty lame because we didn't play bingo or anything. the
lady just told us to mingle with the old people. so i sat down next to
this old lady who started to tell me about Gods country, (I guess Gods
country is in nova scotia. who knew?) and then she asked if i was in the
service. it was a tuesday
so i decided to have a little fun. i said, "yeah i am in the service."
then she asked which branch. I said the navy. then she told me that her
boy was in the navy. he must have been about my same age right? wrong. i
asked when he was born. 1955. just a little older then me. haha
then i went to talk to another lady
before i dug myself into a hole haha. so i went to talk to a lady from
Great Britain. London to be precise. she was funny. she told me, "the
big boss came and asked me if i was doing ok and i said no and he asked
why, then i told him there is nothing interesting to do. he told me talk
to someone interesting. i said how can i talk to anyone interesting if
they dont even know what planet they are on."
then i started laughing haha. then elder johnson looked to see if i
was ok then the lady said, "dont worry i am not tickling him"
haha she was hilarious. i talked to her for a good 45 minutes.
now for a bad.
this is them. we bought brazil shirts and had them sign the sleeve so we could always remember them when brazil plays.
we dont really have anyone else who is progressing.
but
we did get a new investigator this week. a less actives girl friend has
been coming to church so we are starting to teach her. they have to get
married first then we can baptize her. so it may not happen soon but
she is a great lady.
so while in sacrament meeting i was reading "with humble heart" #179 in the hymnal. i love the last verse a lot.
As I walk daily here on earth,
Give me thy Spirit as I seek
A change of heart, another birth,
And grow, dear Lord, to be like thee.
i love this a lot. we are all here to grow to become like our Heavenly
Father. so this week i am going to pray for the spirit for a change of
heart to learn how to change myself to become like my Savior.
elder cameron
i love you all
