Hey fam
This week was a weird one. These past 7 days we have felt the
effects of this Holiday. They call it Pchum Bun. Its the biggest
Buddhist holiday in Cambodia all focused on their dead ancestors and
drinking beer. Lets just say there wasn't a ton of people wanting to
learn about our church. We tried to use our time the best we could.
Because of the Holiday they sell lots of cool food. I bought 6 snakes
for all the Elders. It was way fun watching some pansy Elders put that
in their mouth. Nothing like some good peer pressure.
So my branch right now has a lot of problems. There is an
investigation going on with the old branch presidency because they were
probably stealing money. So the branch has a lot of less actives now and
people who don't trust each other. But we scheduled a meeting with our
branch president and we just discussed with each other what we could do
to get this branch going again. We decided we need to get an active
Elders President and an Active Relief Society president. So this week he
will be making the calls. I think we might see improvement these next
couple weeks.
Our investigator Huah still met with us this week. That was way
cool. Hes doing really good. Hes following every commandment and really
excited to get baptized. I think he will be fully ready in 2 weeks. SO
PUMPED.
I had a really cool experience this week. We had the Family History
senior couple come down to kampong cham and start helping members do
their family history. I got to translate for the District President
again and help him get his family names to be sent to the temple. It
felt really cool being able to complete his family.
In my mission I've had some tough comps. This week was a little fun.
Just trying to be patient and finding ways to love. Really praying for
some charity this week. I'm going to need it.
Thailand looks way sick. Way jealous of that ping pong club you guys joined. I'm going to get destroyed when i get home HA.
