Cavs with the Sweeep

At one time we had 3 phones and an ipad skyping with our Elder Frandsen

Hey Fam,

     I would like to start this letter out by saying that when the Cavs win then the City folks are all happy and willing to let us come into to their homes and teach them the gospel... So if Y'all could send some knee-mails that the Cavs keep up the streak it would be much appreciated. Also, Pray that trump doesn't burn down the city when he comes.

     But in all seriousness this week was another great week in the service of the lord. We saw many miracles happen and We learned lots of great Stuff from president Brown this week in a meeting we had with him. So first I will start off by telling the story of Dorothy the Liberian Refugee that we met on tuesday.

     So tuesday night we were doing our nightly walk to the Stubblefield household when we had this really nice older black lady stop us and ask us who we are in semi-broken english and so we explained and taught a little about the book of mormon and she seemed to be really excited. So before we could even ask for her address and such she was already getting out a piece of paper to give it to us (that doesnt happen to often). We set up a time for the next day to come by. We taught the restoration and invited her to be baptized June 18th and she accepted! we then had another appointment on Saturday with a member there as well and we downloaded the Book of mormon app on her phone so she could listen to it as she read.. So we asked her to listen to the introduction and testimonies and all that great stuff but when we called her today to check up on her and confirm for tomorrow she told us about how she was already on the 3rd chapter of nephi and is going to listen to even more today! Pretty cool stuff.

    next miracle, We had a returning member come to church and meet with the bishop this week! we have been working with him for about a month and a half now and he finally came to church and was able to set some goals with the bishop on getting the priesthood and getting to the temple!

      aaaand another, We finally found out the concern of one of our progressing investigators about baptism after 3 months... he is scared of water... We were stumped for a while on what to do but we had an awesome lesson with him and his family on satruday and he agreed to tour the baptismal font and we had a member explain the whole process of baptism and he finally seemed to feel comfortable about it all. 

     mas, This week I feel like I finally hit a groove with my spanish and all that. It was awesome. I understand what they are saying most of the time and now I can sit down and have a 30 minute conversation and feel completely comfortable. It has been a long 10 months and coming but with the limited spanish opportunities that I have I knew that it would be so.

     And lastly, TALKING WITH THE FAM ON SKYPE! As my understanding of the gospel has grown in my time out here so has my love for my family and for the blessing of having a loving and caring family. I would not trade that knowledge and relationship for anything in the world. ( as a side note, I have the greatest mom in the world too..)

    Well another week has come and gone and here is an interesting thought for Y'all...Time and Eternity are opposites. Isnt that just dandy? 

Don't forget to read your scriptures.

Love you!

Hasta la semana que viene,

Elder Frandsen
