Eddy Is A Bump

What's Goin on. It's your friendly neighborhood ... Oh wait that's Elder Parker's line.

So this was a fast week. 

Story 1: So we had a visit set up with our friend Eddy. So we go over. His sister says he's sleeping, but let's us in. We'll Eddy looked like he was asleep. He had the Book of Mormon open under his arm so we're like in cool he fell asleep reading. We pulled out the book and it was missing like 3/4 of the book. It looked like he opened the book and sawed down the spine. So lots of thin books. I'll attach a short vid. We were distraught! Like that's bad. Like you don't just rip up a book of Mormon. We're not happy with him.

2: there was like 2-3 birthdays in our district. So one of the members sent a birthday video to one of the elders. I didn't know this before but apparently there's some website you can put a name in and Dony Osmand sings happy birthday to them. It was hilarious!

Cool work stuff

So you know how my last couple emails have been all doom and gloom about the work, well the work is still hard and pretty disappointing a lot, but there was some good hope this week. We have started teaching 5 new people, and yes we've only had one lesson with all of them but they seem pretty good. Good places to learn. We had a very promising lesson with one of them last night. It was the best lesson I've had for quite a while. Funny story. Elder Ogden and I used to teach his wife like 5 ever ago. We had a member there. It went very well. He had good questions and everything. The other people are cool too. They all have stories but writing their bios would make for a too long email. But all promising.

OK so our DL asked us to listen to a talk called "Wrestling with comparison" - jb Haws byu devotional. You can find it on the Byu devotional website or probably on YouTube as well. But seriously go listen to it!!! It's soo good!!! Again if I write all about it this email will be even more too long.

Scriptures of the week, and a good song a member recommended. Again if I copied them in too long. 

"Wrestling with comparison" - jb Haws byu devotional.

1cor 13:11

Ether 12:18, 27

John 17:14-18

"broken and beautiful" - calee reed

Again sorry I didn't break down these scriptures and talk. Just for sake of length and time. But I promise they are all good. 

I love and miss all of you! Thanks so much for the emails! Have a splendid week! 

Love Elder Felsted

Lots of pictures this week, haha.
