Hello everyone!

So this week has been good...but not the best though.  Gregory went off of the face of the earth again.

We did end up finding two new amis this week though!  One is Christelle from Congo. We taught her twice this week and she seems interested! She even came to church this week and she loved it!

The other one is Christianna. She is from Nigeria and speaks English. She seemed not too interested in our message but she is willing to try so we will take that over nothing! She actually goes to the same church that two of our recent converts went to.

Well I have a story to tell you guys...

While we were porting, we knocked on an old lady's house. She was a little drunk.  She said she lost a lot of her family members so we taught her that she can live with them again. She didn't seem to believe us but we continued to testify to her.

Then suddenly...she asked us how old we were.  That is when it got weird.  She guessed both of our ages and for Elder Willden she guessed 25 and then for me she guessed 40! haha.  I am not sure why she thought that I was 40 and Elder Willden was 25...haha. I told her that I was 19 and she couldn't believe it. Then it got even more weird when she said how handsome I was and she kept pointing over to my comp telling him that I was so handsome. hahaha. I just laughed and she asked if I was married and I said no. She couldn't believe that I didn't have a girl and then she said that if I was 40 that I would have her as girl. hahaha. That is when we couldn't stop laughing, but when she said that we started to leave for our own safety. It was an interesting experience. Hopefully she felt our testimonies!

Anyways, have a great week!  Love you guys!!!!
