Hey Everybody!
How was everybody week? I understand that most of the kids are back at
school already, isn't that exciting? Haha. Yeah, things have been
really slow in Oroville right now because of that. Except South Side
but, sadly, we are in car and we now don't cover that part of the
area.
We had some exciting hinge happened his week but it also has been a
rough week for about everyone in the District. We don't know why, but
it has. Still, we work hard none of the less.
On Thursday we did exchanges and I was with Elder Shapiro for the day
and in South Side! We visited a family in there and things almost
instantly became chaotic! First, Elder Shapiro is really into guitar
and when the father brought out some his guitars, Elder Shapiro got
really into it and the two began to have a "jamming session." The
mother left had left somewhere and I ended up dealing with their kids,
an one or two year old boy (who was covered head to toe in dirt.) and
a four year old girl. I had lots of fun, the little boy played with my
companion's bicycle helmet and the little girl drew a picture of me
and showed me her pet kittens. We did this for about an hour before we
were able to find a way to leave. Luckily, the father said to my
companion "you gave me an hour of your time so, next time, I'll give
you an hour of my time." So it wasn't a total waste.
On Saturday, we ended going to a baptism for an investigator of the
other Elders. The whole district came! And it was a great change in
the week and I enjoyed it a lot. The woman seemed so happy when she
was baptized and I saw the spirit strong I her, it was wonderful.
In our apartment, we are having the carpet replaced so we had to tear
it out this morning. It was bad and it didn't even take so long. Less
then an hour, actually. The place was so old and poorly taken care of
that the carpet basically jumped off by itself. Oh well, now we get
new, clean carpet and we are thinking about changing the apartment up
a bit.
Sorry I have t been sending pictures, but there are certain card
readers you need for the iPads and the only person who had one left at
the beginning of the transfer. So everyone is unable to send pictures
at the moment. I will try ASAP.
I hope you all have a good week and take care! Love you all!
Love,
Elder Paul Willis
