#MIRACLES

Area: Udon
Companion: Elder Hunsaker



Heyya


Niw got bapped! It was kind of stressful but we got him in the water! He was really cool actually we contacted him at Central with all of his friends who were just thuggin it and kinda looked like the way hard rocker druggies from high school. He was the only one that was like yeah I do want to be clean from my sin and we got his number he met with us and the first time he came he was wearing a toque with the Fword on it he has a bunch of piercings and a kinda emo haircut. but he wanted to change and we taught him the word of wisdom and he was determined to quit smoking and drinking 2 days later went to church but then he got busy for like 5 days and we couldn't see him but when he came back on Thursday he had quit and he told us that from the very first time we met him and invitted to be baptized he realized a lot of bad things in his life and he wanted to be clean! so Saturday we interviewed he passed but needed 2nd one from Pres Khanakham but he was in Roi Et for their District conference and was going to be in meetings all day. It turns out he had an opening at 3 so we scheduled him but when it came to the time he was in a meeting and couldn't go out and the baptism was supposed to be at 4! So we stalled everyone and the other baptism and had them eat food after church like they always do and then finally at 4:30 an hour and a half after we had planned Elder Khanakham was finally ready so we got Niw in an interview and at 5:00 he was baptized along with Elder Wilko and Osborn's investigator Bro O who is a somewhat famous Thai author he has written several series and has a couple best sellers that are featured in like every big bookstore!

I have started doing video journals each night instead of writing in my journal its fun and a lot easier than writing! I am also keeping a daily miracle journal #MIRACLES 

Probably the coolest story was ห้า from the miracle story he is Vietnamese and he's way cool and really sincere! 

Also we found a little rat in our house right at bedtime! and so we spent the next 20-30 mins tearing the house apart trying to catch it in a little trash can it was in the room where we have all our clothes and dressers and we were trying to get it out in the open by spraying it with cockroach killer! At point it was behind the dressers so Elder Wilko started shaking it then suddenly the rat leapt off the top of the dresser to attack Elder Wilko and bounced off of his shoulder and on to the ground eventually we caught it drugged it with bug killer and acid and flushed it down the toilet! 

This week we will be going down for another MLC and then it will be another round of trainings throughout the zone! 

Love you!
