So Mothers Day happened, and I was just thinking. We have a family in our ward called the Days, and since there is a mother in the family would she be called Mother Day? Would one of her children be called Mother's Day? Hurts my head a bit.
In other news, Skyping was awesome! I only have one more of those before I'm back... Weird.
We have two new investigators as of yesterday! S is one. She is from Quebec and has an awesome French accent. We kind of had a lesson with her yesterday about scriptures, and she seems to want to meet several times a week! She promised to make us cupcakes next time if Elder L made her some real Chinese food.
And we also found K! We tracted into her yesterday and she said that she has some cousins who are Mormon or something. So we taught her about the Restoration and the spirit was super strong. she looked pretty stupefied by the end of it and said we could come back!
Oh yeah, also the Prophet is coming next month. So that's exciting!

But this week was actually a pretty weird week. I mean, as a missionary every week is weird, but this one was a special kind of weird.
We decided yesterday to go biking in the park to see if we could find people to talk to there. So we got on our bikes and went around the park.
As we were riding, we were stopped by a drunk lady who wanted to talk/flirt with us. She had a big guy with her who was pretty scary looking, but he was really trying to help us get away from her. It was weird.
Also, we went tracting and knocked on the house of a pastor from another church! That hasn't happened since Innisfail, so I was pretty out of practice dealing with them. It wasn't anything new, he just kept going on and on about how much of a cult we are and that we're all brainwashed. We tried to get away on more than a few occasions, but he was determined to teach us the "truth" according to what he found on the internet.
He said something along the lines of, "I know everything there is to know about your church! I know more about it than you do!" (Not exaggerated.) So we said "Oh so you've read the Book of Mormon?" and he was like "Why would I read such a demonic book?! I haven't any reason to! You poor young men!"
Let me just tell you guys, anyone who does not read the Book of Mormon has no idea about what we believe. That's a fact. So that means that if WE don't read the Book of Mormon, we have no idea what we believe. As we prayerfully study the scriptures, we will find truth.
