Hey!
My first week went pretty good. We don't really have very many investigators so we mostly see LARC's. (Less actives and recent converts.) I am in a car (area( which is fun. Besides the time that we ate at In N Out, we have always had a dinner appointment. We watched conference at the Dyer's house. that's who we live with. But we watched the Priesthood session at the Stake Building. We actually did watch it on BYU TV. I felt that some of the talks were "just for me."
It's a big blessing that we live with members. I eat cold cereal for breakfast. And a bowl or two at lunch. I usually eat something else for lunch too. I don't know of any other missionaries that live with members. It's really nice. The family has two cats and my companion that is waiting for a Visa is allergic to cats.
Because we don't really have many investigators, we go and visit LARC's. Mostly less actives though. We visited Kristin yesterday. She is an investigator. Just a background of her; She is 17 and is a Senior in high school. She was introduced to the church by a friend who lives in our ward. Kristin is a really good investigator. When we visited with her last week and asked her if she had been reading the Book of Mormon she said, "Heck yea!" My companions and I were surprised. You don't get very many investigators who love to read the Book of Mormon. She also watched all of General Conference. When we asked her about baptism last week she said that she would pray about it and when a good date would be. Yesterday she told us probably some time in November! It was awesome.
I am feeling pretty much 100% better. Two of my three pieces of tape have come off. It is really weird to see marks on me. I thought it was funny when Elder Holland mentioned appendicitis in his talk.
Here there are palm trees so the leaves don't relly change color. Hahaha. Miss you!
Love,
Elder Michael Brown
