New Investigator!

Life in Wrightwood has been super exciting the last little while.  WE HAVE A NEW INVESTIGATOR!!!!!  His name is Freedom and he has a little girl named Sabrina and he invited us back again.  Last week I spoke of our gaining obedience and it has paid off in getting us someone to talk to!  He is this amazing guy and only 20 years old with so much going for him.  He is also a Taekwondo black belt to the 5th degree and his hands are legally registered as a lethal weapon!  He is so nice and believes in Jesus and trusts him with his all and has found so much peace and blessings in his faith.  

(funny story)
So one day this week while Elder Pooley and I were comp studying we were talking to each other and in the middle of the story I stopped and was staring and a certain corner of the room.  Elder Pooley asked me what was wrong and I responded..."there's a lizard on the DVD player".  He didn't believe me for a moment and looked at the corner between desks and saw it too.  He caught it and pondered for a while and came to 2 realizations.  1st, this lizard has probably been in here for weeks when the door was left ajar for a whole day and 2nd, this probably isn't the only one...  He have yet to find any others but it is still a serious prospect to realize that there are lizards in our apartment and possibly our stuff...

Temple trip was amazing!! We had our wards bishop drive us, he offered last minute and saved our lives because otherwise we would have had to pass the opportunity.  Awesome spirit stuff happened there, and afterwards he took us out to dinner.  He asked us what we wanted to eat and we replied politely that we "we're hungry for whatever you want to feed us Bishop."  "Well looks like we're eating steak then."  HE TOOK US FOR STEAK!!  We rolled up to Black Angus steakhouse and he told us to order whatever we wanted.  To be polite we ordered less price than him but he ordered a 30 dollar steak for himself and we both had the same.  It was the most amazing steak I had in a very long time.  I also had a lettuce wedge salad which was dope.

The Church is true!! True I tell you!
The last time the Prophet spoke was in the Priesthood session of general conference and spoke of Charity.

Moroni 7:45
1 Corinthians 13:3-8

"If we have not Charity, we are naught, we are nothing"
