Well, this was a pretty good week. We had a few people at church, which was great. We also had transfers, and I have a new companion, named Elder Gillett, he's from Utah. We are already getting along great and I can tell we'll work together really well. We had some cool experiences this week, starting with the World War two musuem, which was really cool. Definitely going to come and visit that when we come back. They had a ton of really cool exhibits and little movies, and now I know a whole lot more about the events and geography of d-day. There is really a ton to learn about it, and they really have done a great job with it. They also have a 4-d experience movie, called "beyond all boundaries" about all the different things that were happening at the same time in WWII. They were totally fighting out on the european front and the pacific front at the same time, which really shows that we have quite a bit of power behind us. It was also kind of a depressing movie. Well, not sure how to really cheer up the fact that about 53,000,000 lives were lost in the space of a few years.
We had some people at church, which is such a relief. We also did some service for a less active, Roberto, with whom we sing music sometimes. He needed his lawn weedwacked and a few trees pruned, so we offered to do it. And he said "well you cant do it right now." and we said "why not" and he said its because of our nice clothes we were in. Again we asked "why not?" so he obliged, and I got out there in my shirt and tie with a weedwacker and pretty'd up the lawn, while my companion helped him move some things around in his shed. Of course, there was no tree pruners to be found, so a kitchen knife sufficed. Too bad it wasnt a cutco.
We are going to teach the family we taught last week, Jared and Blanca, again tonight, they are doing pretty well.
Well, we've got to go, hope everyone is doing well!
Love,
Cam
