Good morning from the other side of the world!
This week was pretty cool. My companion and I went on a crazy adventure into the mountains last preparation day and found some crazy traps in the forest, big enough for bears. We then found some cool abandoned rice fields. I went on my first exchange where I got to sleep in a different area this week. I went to Kariya and to help out at an old-folks home. Everyone was super funny and nice and were talking to me about all this funny stuff like "rock, paper, scissors". We then went to a members’ house for dinner which was awesome because we've probably only done that about five times here. Out investigator didn't get baptized this last week, but she did come to stake conference and really liked it. Our Myanmar investigator also came, but it was hard for him to understand. I had the opportunity to give a priesthood blessing to Paing (Myanmar guy) to help him with the word of wisdom. I talked to him on Sunday and he says that whenever he wants to smoke now he thinks of it and doesn't. It was pretty awesome. He told us he felt good after it which made us feel like we've actually accomplished something. We met a lady last night while less active hunting who came out to her front gate to talk to us. We asked us when she was baptized and she said 80 years ago! She was 91! It's so hard to guess their ages and they all think we are 25. Good week and we found a new investigator while streeting (tracting).
Here's a cool quote I found his week.
"Duty is never worthily performed until it is performed by one who would gladly do more, if only he could."
It's always good to remember why you do things in life. It gives you that extra push.
Thanks for reading this whoever does.
