Party time

 

Pro basketball players

*Ok I'm gonna shoot you guys straight... this is last week's email, so you're gonna get 2 haha. I was waiting for permission to use the picture and I forgot to send it :)*

I've pretty much been to more parties on my mission than I ever went to at home haha.

On Monday night we got invited to this sweet party at an outdoor restaurant for a pro basketball player who is close to the lady who was just baptized! It was a good time, some really... good... live music haha.

Then on Thursday, we got invited to a birthday party! It was at the district president's house and it was a blast. Lots of legal complexities (children) though. It was funny because there were lots of members there, but the food was catered, and we were looking at some cups of mysterious liquid and asked the guy what it was. He said sweet tea and non sweet tea... so we walked away haha. Those are our 3rd and 4th parties out here so far!

The people we are teaching have had a lot going on, and it's made things a little bit difficult, but we still had lots of powerful and spiritual lessons. It's so fun to watch people progress and change or even just understand the message we share. Miracles happen everyday in our lives, and prayers are always answered. Sometimes you just need to look and listen closely.
