Sorry I haven't had the chance to make a weekly post so this is gonna be three weeks in one!!
On Tuesday we met Breck. As Bishop Morris says, he is the most active nonmember that the church has ever seen. He has been coming to church regularly for 7 years. He has a problem with the idea that there is just one true church, and he believes that the book of Mormon has some truth but so does the Bible and so does the qur'an and all books have some knowledge in them. Ya know Bible bashing where people throw Bible verses at you to try to prove that there can't be any more scripture? Well Breck started book of Mormon bashing. He was throwing Alma 32 at us and saying that he can't deny the experiences he's had in other churches it was the weirdest experience ever!!
Later that night we met Nate! He is a HILARIOUS blind guy. He kept on making jokes about his vision or lack of vision I should say. We were about to not even knock on the door because all the lights were out but we decided we should anyway and he came and we were like we are missionaries and he was like oh OK come on in and so we did and we talked for like an hour. Like 15 minutes in he was like oh you guys can't see can you I should turn on the lights and as he did he was like ah my eyes! just kidding I'm blind!! And it was so funny. Love that guy.
On Thursday we had interviews with President Wilding, what a great guy. It seems like he doesn't remember that embarrassing prayer a month ago which is great. Before interviews while we were waiting elder Anderson and I got the chance to talk with Elder Judd. He's a really awesome elder that is very fit and athletic. We got to talking about diet and exercise, which I have no healthy habit of in either area. Elder Judd told us about how he never puts anything bad in his body and he works out for an hour every morning and a half an hour at night, he also doesn't eat anything until noon and he doesn't eat anything after 6. I was like yea that sounds like the worst thing ever no thanks. But then throughout the rest of the day I got like 8 more signs that I need to start eating healthier and treating my body better and stop being fat and so I was just like fine heavenly father I get it!!! So now I'm doing a minor diet compared to what elder Judd does. I don't eat anything until 10 AM and I don't eat anything after 6. It is the worst. But we are on the road for skinny mitchy August 2019 just you wait. Flirt to convert will be more true than ever! Just kidding!
On Saturday we had Marc's Bautismo!!!!! It was so awesome. Brother Hillman gave a wonderful talk on the holy ghost and sister Durant, who taught Marc before she went home, came back to Washington just for the baptism! She gave a great talk on baptism and how truly important the covenant is. And there were like 12 other missionaries there too!!! It was insane!!
Sadly on Sunday Marc couldn't get confirmed because he had work so hopefully next week!!
Today for P-day we went shopping and elder Judd came with me and coached me on what to get so I am now mega healthy. We also played GANGBALL!! Which is just great. It's basically soccer with wheelchairs. Super awesome.
