September 2, 2013

Haha i couldnt come up with any other subjects but hey... this one is pretty good right??  Anywyas to start. It's a small world.  Because!  On Tuesday my comp and I went to a soiree at the 2nd counselor to president adams' house.  Who is Tom and Kay's friend that everybody has been telling me to get a hold of!  Well I finally did, well he got a hold of me haha.  Anyways it was me and my comp and then my buddy elder fox who i went on a split with and his comp, elder Jensen who is our zone leader.  I guess Brother Lalary (tom and kay's friends) knows Elder Jensen's grandparents.  so he invited us all over!  Come to find out!  Elder Jensen is the elder that is in Claudia's stake that her husband (i'm so sorry i cant remember his name) was telling us about! He's my zone leader and he's such a cool guy!  So yeah! Small world! Anywyas at Brother Lalary's house we talked about panguitch, tom and kay and then boom... I saw a hatch ranch hat just like the one i have... i put it on and wore it all night hahah!  Anywyas it was such a fun soire.. we had the BEST food... Real, legit American... MEXICAN FOOD!  THE BEST food i've had haha oh my heavens people... it was soo good.. I ate 4 burritos. elder fox at 6. i was so sick that night but it was sooo worth it!  But yeah! REally cool to talk to Brother Lalary about panguitch and stuff and find that out about elder Jensen!  Anywyas i won't lie.. the rest of the week has been pretty hard on me. the work has slowed and my comp is kind of content with where we are and im.. not? haha don't get me wrong he's a great missionary and is awesome but just he is content with the people we have and thinks it's enough... he's not a fan of contacting and finding either.. which hasn't rubbed off well on me. But i convinced him to go contacting and we got 1 return time!  Anywyas.. People I got the package. Was it manna from heaven? IZZZZAAAY!!! (yes) Oh man.. I love the Les Mis soundtrack, I love the crazy socks (wearing hte mustache ones right now) i forgot how good star burts are.. and peanut butter. my friend. yes. i love it.  The music is also most dope. thanks guys haha.  Anywyas sorry it was a really boring week.  Haha Saturday in honor of BYU's first game which i heard they lost (dang) i wore my BYU shirt and pants all morning, then may or may not have worn my BYU shorts under my pants half of the day... It's fine. I took pictures. Send them to Bronco for me haha.  Anyways it was a tough week but the Lord provided yesterday. We had 3 new investigators show up to churhc, 2 who we didn't even know!  It was solid. Also yesterday one of our investigators Meva, who we've been waiting on a divorce and vita soratra for, had news. Sadly her husband who she was yet legally married and another of our investiagorrs left her... So we asked her if she wanted to be baptized or if she wanted to wait.. she said she felt like she should move on and get baptized... haha she agreed to a baptisimal date in 2 weeks! Just before the next transfer in case Rakotonjanahary gets transferred out! Sad about her hsuband but cool that she's getting baptized! Also our last tiem yesterday we taught this guy that talked to us on the street the day before, he seaid he had been taught last year and wanted to be taught again... so we went and taught him, a lady that i think was his daughter was there, she too had already been taught!  They both remember Jospeh Smith and it was super cool to see that they still had the desrie to learn.  Guys it's been a hard week and i've really needed to remember my tender mercies. but i know that when you keep pushing with patiene and the faith you have...the lord will provide.  D&C 24:8... Love you guys! Hope you're all good! 
Love you,
Elder Roush
