Well Good Mornin,
To
start out I want ya'll to know how much I thank you for all of the
prayers and support from home. It helps the work move forward faster than
we could ever comprehend, and I also want to thank my sister Shannon for
fixin' my pants. That was a lifesaver and I will be using them at
president interviews this Friday
so I will look sharp. Story of the week: so my companion's dad sent me a
gps out of the blue. I asked him because he works at Garmin and to see how
cheap of one I could get so he just sent me one and said take my son out
to lunch sometime and so it was a deal. Until one day after zone
conference we got back to Sedalia and walking out of our church building
to walk to dinner I saw a big grub (like on quigley down under the movie). I made a deal with my companion if I ate the grub I didn't need to take
him to lunch. So we made the deal and he video taped me as I did it. MAN
IT SUCKED and it didn't taste very good but it was definitely worth it
haha and i would probably do it again.
Then yesterday we talking to one of our investigators Delorus, she is a 80
year old lady who lives by herself and loves our church and I invited her to
be baptized and she said yes! The only problem is that two months ago
she almost died: she had a stroke and passed out on her floor for two
days before someone found her so its very hard for her to read and to
walk. So I found a wheel chair we can get her to church and I got her
audio recordings of the Book of Mormon. She will be baptized on the 9th
of November should be a very good service. This week me and my companion
and some members in our ward participated in doing service Saturday
which was loading 100 trucks and trailers full of food about 75 pound
boxes over my head for about 8 hours. I just about died but I loved doing
it and it was called Festival of Sharing.
Well
stress is a major cause of giving middle aged grandmas gray hairs so
watch out mother haha, you might just end up with a head full of gray
hairs. Oh buddy that's super exciting that the stake got re-organized. Hope
that he does great in his calling and tries to magnify it whenever
possible! Well I can't believe I'm missing the Halloween party but I guess I
will just have my own here in Sedalia at the church. They are having a
trunk or treat and we were going to get some candy at that (hopefully)
then go home cause missonaries have to be home at 6 that day for safety
reasons - crazy huh. How about you just eat a extra bowl of chili for me
and a piece of pie as well! That would be great!
Love Ya'll
Elder Davies
