June 11,2018 - Mission Week 49: Be One and have some fun



Tried way to hard to make that title rhymm. 

Hello, and Welcome to Myldsmail News Weekly, on the docket tonight we have Canceled appointment, a visit to witbank by the Mission president, and continued shirt vs. pen violence as another pen ruins one of Elder Funks shirts. Its been a real hum-dinger (what?) of a week and we hope you stay tuned for the details. 

On Tuesday, a man named Ace was given the Book of Mormon on CD due to his blind eyes, He was very excited. then there was a switch for companion exchanges that took place that night. 

Wednesday, 19 year old Elder Funk was seen the whole day with 20 year old Elder Andam. It is reported that Elder Andam is the District leader. They were seen in middleburg going to the home of  Louisa Petzer, Mavis Tjao, and Mpumi (?). they are suspected of also trying to see a man named Vincint and his assosiate Daniel, but the two could not be found. The Two Elders then returned to witbank and spent the rest of the day at the home of known correspondent Sis. Pat. After that the two parted ways. 

Thursday,   The ringleader and overlord of this gang of dogooders was seen entering the appartment of Elder Funk and Elder Coka early that morning, (gonna break from this stupid joke to explain the interview, he basically told me that this time around I should be leaving Witbank, but that he still wants to keep me close to the office and Pretoria) 

Friday, was normal, sme with saturday, lots of cancels, and nothing noteworthy. 

Sunday, Everyone canceled. Litterally everyone, and we cant door knock on sundays sooooooooooooooooooooooo  watched some church movies and ate food, and called EVERY LESS-ACTIVE. only 3 were willing ot meet us though. A lot of "hello is this (name)?" "yes" "This is the Missionaries from the Church, how are you?" "who were you looking for?" "(name)"  "no this is (random other name), you have a wrong number" *hangs up*  * calls again so they know you know its not a wrong number, but this time they don't answer, or number busy us* 
Then you move on to the next name. 

so yeah. 
here are some random thoughts and also notes from the Be One conference We watched on sunday (side not to be One, most everyone was Crying, and it was mostly Northern/Central African Cultural stuff)

  • Elder Funk- Boats, Bread, Being obsessed with Things
  • Dead Litterallism is a problem when you a sarcastic as me. 
  • Marking would be a fun job
  • I miss being in buildings with Insulation, Its just brick here. 
  • House Music is going to kill me.
  • B-List african movies all use the same songs. at the same time.
  • The Biblical Shew - the Worst part of the King James Version
  • Elder Coka is a lot like Tad Decker. 
  • Pens 3, Shirts 0
Be One Notes
  • The Lord Rarely gives reasons, he expects faith.
  • Relations of Patience, Faith, and Hope to Lasting Coversion
  • 75,000 members to 600,000 by the end of this year, and I helped with that. 
  • I need to buy a Traditional Shirt 
  • Go to the temple more
  • 40 years is a big number in the Ghospel
  • President Nelson tearing it up with Jokes
  • Male and Freemale (he misspoke)
  • Live the Culture of the Ghospel
  • Be One dangit
  • and clapping after everything seemed to make President Nelson Uncomfortable. And the clapping was super awkward since only one lady in the building we watched was clapping with them. Everyone else was busy crying. 
So yeah, good week. I had way to much fun writing this E-mail. 
Go live your dreams.
Go swimming
Kthanksbye
