So another fun thing that
happened this last week was since I'm now the good old Battleford DL I
get to report indicators to the Zone Lords. Well I tried calling them
when I was supposed to but they were probably talking to some other DL
at the time so they missed me. But, because we needed to get out and do
some work we started going by some houses we had tracted earlier in the
week and the first house we stop by we get into quite a good discussion
on how, according to him, our church is different from "Christianity".
He had quite a few questions for us and what we taught and honestly it
felt like he was trying to find some major doctrinal difference from
what he thought Christianity was but since our church is literally where
Christianity came from he was having a bit of difficulty doing that. It
seemed like he was trying to fish for something that wasn't there. It
might've been the fact that we have temples but, like I said, we told
him how temples started with the tabernacle that traveled with Israel in
the wilderness and how the Temple of Solomon was the permanent
placement of the temple. We also told him how many prophets when talking
to God would go up into the mountains which acted as a temple of sorts.
So yeah it was kindof a unique conversation :) I hope we showed to him
how really we're not that different from what is taught in the Bible.
But, an hour and a half later Elder Wilson let me know that we had four
missed calls, three from the Zone leaders and one from the Assistants.
So whoops :) I guess I'm important enough now to hold back the entire
indicator process :) I got rebuked enough but it's all good. Elder
Wilson after this week has been calling me a loose cannon missionary
because I apparently don't care about the rules :)
Welp
that's all I've got. I hope y'all have a great week. I think I have
enough time to send pictures so that'll be good :) Potatoes gonna Potate
