WEEK 30: BY SMALL AND SIMPLE THINGS


My week was pretty good.  Elder Smith and I did really great with our numbers, and one of our investigators Pat prayed in front of us for the first time this week. It was awesome!
 
We had dinner with the Sibley family, who pride themselves on making missionaries gain weight. We had tri tip steaks, chicken, and pork in one meal, and if you don’t get seconds then you don’t get dessert and the dessert is always amazing!
 
I also just found out that two of my old investigators that I was teaching in my last area  are getting baptized!  One is getting baptized this Friday and asked for me to baptize him!  Then the next baptism on June 12th and it is a nine year old named Marcos.  He is an awesome kid.

Also, we had exchanges this week with our Zone Leaders, so I got to live the car life which was a ton of fun for the day.
 
 
 
 
I street contacted into a woman who a year previous, was shot in the head twice, and she literally ran from us when we were coming so I went up to the house and caught her hahaha!  She was super funny.  There are a lot of interesting people out here.  Well that’s all for this week.
 
Love and miss you all,
Elder Pennington
