Hey
What's up!
Nothing to crazy really
happened this week, but at least the days went by fast so it wasn't bad. Where
to even start…
I guess I'll talk about
the investigators that we have, I guess. We still have Winay and his two kids
Bam and Bom. They were all supposed to come to church yesterday, but at the
last minute Winay ended up having to go work so it was just his kids that came,
which was good. We were trying to get him baptized this week but it just wasn't
possible he was out on business all week until Saturday night when he finally got back. The Zone
Leaders were on our backs like crazy saying like; teach him everything during
the second hour of church tomorrow we will interview him during the 3rd and then he can get
baptized after church. We called Sister Muay who is his member girlfriend because we didn't think he was ready yet and
asked her what she thought about him getting baptized tomorrow. She said it
wasn’t possible he still hasn't stopped smoking completely and other things. He
is busy with work and has a big problem with the word of wisdom so we just need
to help him with that. It is hard though because he is never free and we only
been able to meet with him one time and we taught him about half of what he
needed to learn, which is a lot. So we have been planning on teaching him the
rest of everything since we never know when he will be able to meet with us
again because of his crazy schedule. As for other investigators we found a new
one this week. Her name is Bubae! She is 22 years old and works at place that
makes glasses. She seems interested and we have been able to meet with her once,
but she wants to get baptized. She really wants to learn so we can help her with
that for sure. We have an appointment with her tonight and so we will be
teaching her and giving her a baptismal date for the 13th of
April. It should go good!
I really don't have
much else to tell you we only had 38 people at church last Sunday which was
horrible, but it was because everyone had to "vote" yesterday I guess
they had another voting day. So everyone just decided they didn't need to come
to church because they had to go vote which takes only 5 minutes! It is all
good though. We got a new branch president yesterday here in Nong Khai. Our old
one got married to a member in another providence so he moved down to Roi et
with her so now we have a new one named, Brother Paybun. Pretty crazy stuff
though. Oh and I never told you that I am the Branch Pianist ha-ha! I have been doing for a while now and I mess up all the time, but I'm the best we have. I just don't like playing the piano when I know I can't play the song very well, I always get nervous.
We did go ice skating
in Udorn last p-day with Brother Gang which was fun. We also went inviting one
day at the mall for about five hours which was crazy. We didn't get any new
investigators but it was just was fun for some reason even though we didn't
have a lot of success. That is all I have for you guys, sorry the letter is
kind of short, have a good week! :)
