Week Sixty Five

This week was full of lots and lots of finding. 

It started off with exchanges with the Lynnfield Elders. We blitzed our area, and that means one companionship usually gets majority of the lessons planned that day so the other can find in a different part of the area. So we were #teamfind. It was pretty lit. At the end of the day we were walking to a Papa Gino's to meet some members, and we got right outside the shop when some dude jumped up in front of us, and started preaching in tongues. The member saw us and was watching from inside, and I'm sure from his view we looked like some stellar missionaries, but from our view we were just watching some man spazz out in front of us. After talking about the gospel with him, he gave us the traditional "I respect what you young men do" talk that every missionary hears at least 5 times a transfer, and then was on his way. This experience reminded me of when I visited a Pentacostle church in Rockland😂  The pizza was good too.

The very next day we were walking Revere Beach, and talking to people along the way. We got into a conversation with some guys in jail who were cleaning the beach. We had a good conversation about repentance and this guy told us he was going to find us when he gets out. That's probably the only time that phrase coming from someone in jail is good. Anyways we kept walking, and we accidentally walked onto the set of a movie. I think it's called Wonderland or something, and it has Mark Wahlberg in it. Idk if people thought we were official because of our shirts and ties, but no one said anything to us. We talked to some way cool people there. One of them knew Donald Glover pretty well, and had worked with him a lot. We also picked up a security guard as a new investigator. He was amazed by the Book of Mormon! Anyways if you're confident, not many people question you👍

Last night we didn't have anything scheduled except for more finding time. So we decided to tract, because we felt like facing some rejection. After some great conversation, interrupting multiple family dinners, and freezing cold wind, we got the cops called on us. It was all good though. I'm not sure the police could do anything if they found us anyways. We did find one amazing family from it, so it was worth it. In the end I'd say this week was one for the books. Had a lot of fun times, and found some amazing people. God answered our prayers, and we had a good time while doing it.

Hope y'all have a good week, and be good!
