So here we are, the End of another 2 weeks. 2 more transfers and I'll
be out of double digits with planners I have left. That's legit!
So I'll get right to the point (what, no joke this week? how boring -
he's boring now). So Momo (that person going to be baptized in
september, the 25th) is still awesome. She reads, understands, and is
coming to church alot. Hopefully she's going to be ontrack, but you
know Satan sending his hailstorms and whirlwinds to mess us up
(Helamen 5:12). We'll see what happens.
And funny story of the week: according to what the Florida 2nd branch
Believes, Vegetarians are sinners. Here's how it happened:
So we were at the Mormon Helping Hands project, right, and we're
planting some plants for this Day Care so they can teach the kids how
to work, plant, then eat fruit and veg. Good, right? Well it is, why
did you doubt your answer? Anyways, so after, we are eating some fruit
as our rewards for it. Then they somehow bring up meat and veg, and
the first thing that was super funny was the second me or Elder
Avarell made a comment they took it as doctrine. We could have said
"You can only eat meat on tuesday" and they would have believed it.
So, as we sit there and talk about it, Elder Avarell brings up a
scripture in D & C that says basically those who don't eat meat are
not of God, or that's how they took it. So now an Entire Branch
believes that vegetarians are sinners.... Eish. Not our best moment.
Other than that, it was just another week. We're going by soweto today
to get some items from home, so it's gonna be fun to go shopping for
those super cheep statues!
Hope you all are safe and well, I'll send some photos home next week
because this computer is Jack, yo!
...speaking of which, shout out to my cousin Jack for making it through mission!
See you guys in a year in a half, message you next week!
-Elder Schnepf
