Week 54 - August 14, 2017 - Morgantown, West Virginia

Whatttuuuppp y'all! You know who it is. Things have been going really good over here in Morgantown!! The traffic here is absolutely NUTS now with all the students coming in and everything. But it makes driving more entertaining almost hitting students left and right. Also we drive a van so that's chill. All things are going great over here :). The streets in Morgantown are very narrow.

UPDATE ON INVESTIGATORS AND LESS ACTIVES:

Jeremy and Cassie. So we taught them the Word of Wisdom this week and it went really well! It's gonna be a huge struggle for Jeremy though. He said he's gonna do his best before September 9th (their baptismal date). And Cassie doesn't have a problem with it! Just pray for them that they'll be able to live the word of wisdom and come to church this Sunday! They're doing great :) Up next? 
The law of chastity. lolz.

Aaron. So Aaron is a less active member and he is trying to quit smoking. So we taught him a lesson on how to quit smoking and he's been doing good so far! In a week, he'll be a non-smoker!! So please pray for him that he'll continue to have the strength to resist the temptation to smoke!

CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK:

So this one is a little different than the previous ones. But you know I always say, "Every member is a missionary!" Well, some people have been asking me how they can be a missionary and here's the advice/challenge. BE AN EXAMPLE. Just be an "example unto the believers" this week (1 Timothy 4:12). The way you live your life says a lot about you more than just words. So think of how you can be a Christ-like example to your friends, family, and even strangers this week!

FUNNY MOMENT:

So we were trying a potential investigator one day and we were stopped by this guy named Bill. He was drunk as a skunk let me tell ya. He grabbed both me and Elder Howe by the ties and told us that he could hurt us. But then he started laughing uncontrollably and told us he was just kidding. Then he proceeded to tie our ties together into a knot. Haha! Then he walked away with one of our Books of Mormon. It was a pretty great experience! We know where he lives so we'll try him later this week haha!

I love all y'all so much! Thank you for the love and support you've given me :) hope you guys have a great week!
