This
last Saturday we had our Pre-Christmas party. We were asked to do a
little play on the Joseph Smith story. My companion was Joseph Smith. I
was the dark spirit that came and bound his tongue. That was a lot of
fun to do. We also were asked to be wise men in the party, but it wasn't
as big of a part. Our church finally got air conditioning back this
week. It was out for 2 weeks and church has been very very hot.
Our investigator, Ju came to the party too! She's starting to make friends
in the church. She basically is another member, except she has been so
busy this month to meet with us, so that's the downside. But I'm hoping
that this new transfer will come out well.
We
are starting to get a lot more referrals coming in and so this next
week will be in for contacting them all and start teaching them. We have
our youth conference today through Wednesday, so a lot of our members
will be there, but we aren't allowed to go there with them.
We
also found a recent convert that got lost in the works when she changed
her phone number (here in Malaysia, they just go buy new sim cards
every now and then. they are cheap, like 3 or 4 ringgit usually. I'm not
sure why, but it really is difficult on missionary work here when
members change their number every other week) but she is super awesome,
but has not been to church for a few months now. I am excited to work
with her and try to bring her back. Our branch is doing extremely well
still. Christmas is coming up though, but it isn't Christmas here in
Malaysia. It is the Day of Binge-Eating-Until-You-Want-To-Die. I thought
it would be rather relaxed because most people go back to their village
for the vacation, but I just found out yesterday that there will still
be plenty of people here to make sure we get stuffed from sun up to sun
down... Yay.... errrrr. :/ but it should be fun. it will be my last Christmas in the mission, so I gotta make the most out of it. :)
That's all for this week.
Love,
Elder Vincent
