Hey everyone! Feels nice to send a short little email and let ya'll know I'm still alive and still working as always. Let's get right into it!
So we've been working with Norton a lot and Alex a bit, we couldn't really schedule anyone else but we are still working on it, it's been awesome though. Norton's really progressed, it was a very sacred experience as he told us that he's changed a lot from who he once was, and how much he has felt happier. He's got a baptismal date for 12 of June, and now I am fully confident he will make it. It's been interesting to feel a change, to go from thinking he was ready to truly knowing it. That's been awesome and being able to see him change is really really good.
Alright, time for our funny story:
So we ran into a Pakistani man and he totally started telling us about how his religion believes there are people and three eyed elephants on the sun which, during the second coming, will come down and fight with us. and the Muslim ruler at the time will contend with them and he'll be praying a lot and then Jesus will come down and kill the monsters, and he'll kill them all day. And in one day they will be all dead, and we will all be under one religion. He also believes that Jesus was not crucified, but they took someone who looked like him and crucified him, and that Jesus was translated instead of dying. He told us that he believes Jesus is the Sun of god, not the Son of God. I couldn't stop laughing as he was telling us that we were gonna war with fire three eyed elephants, sounds like a video game. So he told us we need to read the Koran, and we told him we have another book of scripture. Needless to say, we scheduled him. :P
Yesterday we decided to fry chicken (Because who needs health? (It's missionaries that need health!)) so we ate that for lunch and afterward we had members give us steak noodles, give us soda, and then one gave us a full cheesecake. I don't think it fully makes sense to all of you but cheese here is EXPENSIVE, and she made it herself. Cheese. Cake. MMMMMMMMMMHHHHH.
Also we decided we wanted to teach cooking for English class adults, and we made cookies for them all. No bakes were awesome because they went so quick, and then everyone enjoyed eating them. "This isn't a cookie," one of the little girls that came to adult English exclaimed. "Uhhh... it's an American cookie?" Yeah I might have just really confused her. Oh well!!
See you all next week!!
