Today
we are going to be actually doing stuff for Pday. We are going into
Boston to play soccer and then basketball. We may just chill in the city
after that! It's going to be a party! I probably won't be writing too
much today but we'll see.
This
week has been good. We went on exchanges with the Zone Leaders. While
Elder Hilbig and I were walking around we found a family from Ghana who
was moving out of their apartment. We offered to help and they said
sure, so we started moving in white shirts and ties! Let me just say
their apartment was pretty bad and I got super,
super, dirty. But it was fun to help them! We moved
out these huge couches, from the 3rd floor. 2 fridges, and other stuff.
It was good that they were getting rid of it all so we didn't have to
be too careful. They said that they could use help moving in, but since
we had already been there for 3 1/2 hours we told them we couldn't but
other Elders could! They also said they would listen to a message so
hopefully something will come from that! Other than that, exchanges was a
lot of contacting with not much results. We met some super cool people
who knew who we were but didn't care for our message. One guy even
invited us to chill on his porch with him and eat cheese and crackers.
Haha it was cool:)
Elder Perkes and I have a guy who we are planning to baptize on the 15th of July. When he came to church yesterday,
he told us that he hasn't had any alcohol for 5 days straight! It was
pretty exciting! By himself he has cut down from drinking an entire
bottle to nothing! We are planning on teaching him how to overcome his
cravings. The mission doctor is in our district and has told us some
ways to help him! We are planning on moving his Baptismal date to the
16th or 23rd of this month if he really is done drinking! His name is
L. and he is from Brazil. Because of his work schedule and his
wife's work schedule we have only been able to meet with him but their
schedule changed so we will also be talking with the wife! We are pretty
excited.
We
had interviews with President Miller this week. Last interview with
him.. It's kinda sad. I love him and Sister Miller. We have a Zone
Conference on the 12th of June
and that's it. We won't see them anymore... I'm really bummed but
excited to get to know the new President and his wife. It will be nice
to have a mission President who speaks Spanish though!!
Elder
Perkes and I have been getting along really well. It just took a little
while to figure him out. So I'm all good! Excited to continue working
with him! :)
I hope all is well at home!
Love you all!
Elder Bushman
