Wah Gwaan?! (What's up) Well this week has been a pretty good week, not
too much going on this week. Were teachin and workin hard, still riding in the
sun all day and this week we also
rode in alot of rain. Here in Jamrock you just ride in it. Huge downpours like
I have never seen before you just put your stuff in your backpack in a scandle
bag (plastic grocery bag) and just keep going. I was kind of hesitant at first
but now it's just pretty fun. Just hittin big puddles riding through mud, I
tried to dodge it all at first but once you get wet you just don't even care
anymore and just make it fun, it was pretty fun but it did make a ton more
laundry for me to do and since I hand wash I think that I am going to reconsider
the amount of puddles that I am going to ride through in the future. Some
puddles are just unavoidable tho, some of the streets just get completely
flooded like flooded like you see on the news all the time. We had an
appointment that we had to make it to and this happened to this road that we had
to take to get there. The puddle was the whole width of the rode and sidwalks
and stuff and at least a 1 1/2 to 2' deep so we just peddled right through it
for about 50 or 60'. Fun times lol.
We also had a little mis-hap with a
blender this week. Elder Adamson and Elder Romney stopped by, they are ZL's on
the other side of the island but they were in Kingston for something and Elder
Adamson bought this new blender that he couldn't wait to get home to try out so
he brought it over to our house and it just went downhill from there. We loaded
that thing with veg and fruit and it was blending nicely then all over a sudden
the lid exploded off and green smoothie went EVERYWHERE!! It was so awesome! :)
It happened just like the movies. It was pretty funny until we actually had to
clean it up, but we still had fun.
Well one of our top investigators who was progressing SO good and was
supposed to be baptized this
sunday fell off this week. One day he was fine talking about how excited
he was for baptism and stuff and the next day we show up at his house and his
mom walks out and hands us the Book of Mormon and the pamphlets that we gave him
and told us never to come back. We were shocked because she haas never ever
been rude to us when we were over there or anything. His name is P and we
came to find out because he has a friend that is in the branch that talked to
him that he went on the internet and started reading anti-mormon articles and
now he wants nothing to with this church because of the crap that he read.
Crazy how satan works.
Well I can't wait to call home on mothers day!! I am working on
arrangements to skype home sometime in the evening, probably like 7 in the
evening Utah time. I am going to have one of the members here that I am working
with e-mail you and let you know the exact time hopefully and the the rest of
the plans. That's the plan and hopfully it works out all good.
Love you guys, we're about to go to a members house here, Sis E, she
invited all 8 of the Spanish Town elders over for food and games and stuff today so it should be good. We DEEP
CLEANED our house this morning and you would be proud mom of how good I cleaned
the bathroom today :)
Love you,
Elder Colton Harris
