Hey gang! This week on #whatsmysnack we have Russian chocolate. My main man Elder Taggart, who is Russian, hooked me up with some authentic chocolate candy straight from Russia! Pretty good not gonna lie!
We had an awesome week here, we were able to find a bunch of new people to teach, hopefully some of them pan out! We have been teaching this older guy named G for the past 2 weeks. He was a bible referral that we gave a book of mormon to. He has been super interested and he even came to church yesterday! It was awesome, he was taking notes during gospel principles and was loving church. He said he really enjoyed it and would be coming back! He doesn't want to commit to baptism yet because he is still "doing his research". He loves it when we come over and teach him tho. Haha and for some reason he calls me Larry haha. On the phone when I tell him it's the missionaries he says, "Ahh hey Larry!" Then in priesthood he was sitting next to me and he introduced himself to everyone and said, "I just barely started learning about the Mormons, thanks to my man right here, this young man, Larry" as he points to me haha. I don't really care if he calls me elder Thorpe or Larry, as long as he is able to come to understand the gospel of Jesus Christ and enter the waters of baptism, it's fine by me!
Something super cool this week, also on Sunday, was Nifesimi and Folahami passed the sacrament!!we gave them some white shirts and ties and they looked awesome. They had the biggest smiles on their faces as they passed it! Then Oladele, Dami, and Victor all received the priesthood! It's such a rewarding experience getting to see your converts progress in the gospel!!
Things are as good as ever out here, this surely is the Lord's work, and I love it more than anything else!! I hope you all have a great week!
