21 Months and Overcoming Sickness

Ok this week maybe wasnt that bad, but it sure was no walk in the park. Monday returning form writing letters, i almost passed out. that had never happened to me before. I was in bed all monday, all tuesday. Just with zero energies. Elder Mosqueda one of the zone leaders cam over adn took my place tuesday. And i just stayed with members the whole day. Juest in bed. I had no energy. But i took all the medicin and kept on eating and the sickness was overcome. Wednesday i was tired of being tired adn went and and worked teh whole day. It was very challenging working wednesday and thursday but we got it done. I had a nast caugh most of the week. But Heavenly Father was nice enough to le the sickness leave me very rapidly. THe caugh is almost 100% gone. And i feel almost normal. FOr groceries, i just buaght pancake mix, apples, bannanas, oranges and yogurt and bread. The only thing i eat in the houseanymore is what i have left form teh christmas candy and the above items. Sometimes i will buy something in te street. THe work is about the same here. But God certainly did hear our prayers and we baptized sunday. Erika didnt pass her entrivesta because of commandment problems. But there was an inactive brother that we have been working without who turned out to have no record, so we had to teach him everything and baptize him. Im very greatfull that God gave us that. But we keep busting our buts off. We had 2 investigators in church yesterday. Thats a miracle. And the real Miracle is they were new people. One was a guy that we invited to come to church in street contact. We did an idea that i have been wanting to do forever. we printed off the church derections and glued them to the pass along cards are we inveted everyone we saw to church, and the miracle of it all is that one person came to church. So maybe our new finding tequnique will just be doing that all day and the teaching the ones that come to church. We also we accompanied by the son of a Sister here. He is the last one in his family that hasnt been baptized. The family got baptizzed about a year and a half ago and entered the temple 6 months ago, now they are just waiting on hiim to accept. So we talked to him saturday and he said he would come. And he came for sacrament meeting! It was great to have new investigators in church. We see him again tommorrow. BUt thats basically the week. It feels good to be alive agian. Today for pday we just went and washed clothes at a members house. When we dont wach there we have to wash it by hand and that just sucks. Me and ELder Offerhall played card games like scum plack jack and speed and egyiptian rat screw. It was fun. Talking about all kinds of good pre misison things. Ohh and i completed 21 months saturday. Clouse goes home this transfer and Adams goes home this transfer...... what in the world! The zone leaders say i will probably trian. we will see. I think it would be fun. But whatever happens will be fun. Welp i love you all, its been fun chating at ya all. I hope you have a good week adn that all goes well!
