I don't have a lot of time today so I am stealing a little bit of my comps email today :)
This week went by so fast. On Tuesday we had District Meeting and after we went out to eat at Buffalo Wild Wings with the West Bend Elders and the ZLs. I have wanted to do the blazing challenge for a long time and I finally got the courage to do it. It is 12 of their spiciest wings in less than 6 mins. Elder Pinter and I decided to try. I finished it in 3:17 and got my free T-shirt. It was fun!
After we went back to Sheboygan. We tried some potentials and formers. We had a little bit of luck and a few people said we could come back. We had an appointment at 7 with Melanie and we had about 15 mins so we decided to try one more house. While driving to this house, Elder Vang jokingly said, "Watch, this house is going to let us in and we are going to be super late to our appointment." Sure enough, that was exactly what happened. We knocked on the door and the Hmong lady told us to come in because it was cold outside. The husband and wife were really nice to us, we spoke a "little for like for 30 minutes. It was about 7:30 and we were still in the house. So we nicely said we had to go and told them that we'd come back. They agreed and so we will be trying their house again later on this week.
Wednesday, we met with our investigator Evan at a Sushi restaurant. Evan is awesome. He is super busy with a full-time job and going to school on top of that, but he still finds time to meet with us and read a little bit of The Book of Mormon. He is really liking it and is slowly working on changing some of his bad habits like smoking, alcohol, and coffee. He has made a lot of progress. He has cut down from around 16 cups of coffee a day to about 2 now. Later in the day, we met up with our investigator Chong Dee and we taught her and her little brother Ben The Gospel of Jesus Christ.
On Friday we went on exchanges with the ZLs. I went with Elder Evans again and went down to Neenah. It was the first time that I have left Sheboygan for exchanges since I have been here so I was pretty excited to go somewhere new. Elder Evans is a Spanish Elder so I basically was useless the whole time. My 4 years of Spanish didn't do anything for me haha. We still had a lot of fun together though. We had 6 appointments that day, but somehow all 6 of them weren't home. So we went a solid 0/6. After the successful day in Neenah, we got ice cream at Dairy Queen to celebrate our day haha.
Saturday morning, we exchanged back and headed straight to our new investigator Kij's house. We taught him the Plan of Salvation and set a baptismal date with him for May 26, 2018. It isn't a super solid date since we still have to teach him a lot of stuff and he has some Word of Wisdom problems, but we set the goal and expectations for him.
Last week of the transfer next week. So hopefully I don't get transferred.
