This past week we meet with a former investigator named Chimezie. He is from Africa and an amazing man. He is constantly thinking about others and how to help them. He told us that when he becomes friends with someone he calls them his brother or sister so he calls us his brothers. It's kinda cool. He taught me how to say "this church is true" in Igbo. That's the language he speaks.
Friday we had zone conference and it was amazing!!!! I learned a lot and we got to watch "Meet the Mormons"! It was an awesome movie and I encourage you to go see it and encourage people you know to go see it. Elder Nielsen was way excited because this is the first movie he has gotten to watch in the last year an half haha!!!
Last night we had our last appointment fall through; which always stinks because then you have to think of something to do on the spot. As we were about to drive away I see this U-haul and I ask Elder Nielsen if we should help them. So we do and afterwards one of the girls that was also helping almost starts crying and said that she has never seen anyone thats been affiliated with a church be so willing to help people on the spot. After we talked a little bit more I got a prompting to ask them if they would like us to bless their home. Elder Nielsen looked at me really weird because that's not usually what we say but they got really excited and said yes, I would love that!!! So later in the week we are going to stop by and hopefully share a message with them!!!
Me and Elder Nielsen are getting pumped for General Conference this weekend!!!
Love you all and hope you are doing well!!!!!
Love,
Elder LaRochelle
