Hi

Picture of the district #MERICA

Nothing to out of the ordinary to Report this week so Ill keep it short and tell a couple stories from the week.

First: Our investigator Victoria who is a retired nice Chinese woman with a thick accent was telling us how much she enjoyed being a doctor and things about her career and what not. Previously I had mentioned that I wanted to go into the medical field so she looks at me and says " you will be a sexist doctor" and then she said you will look the part well and you have the right personality for it. I was confused and it was really funny to hear here say that but she continued on to say that I will be a "sexy" doctor wearing a stethoscope and other hospital get up... Now I was really confused as to what she was trying to say. So next she says, I will call you in ten years when I am sick and have you tell me what to do because you will be a successful doctor... Elder Durrant and I realized that she had been saying successful wrong the whole time and with her accent it was hard to understand... Language barriers always lead to weird miscommunications. 

Second: Ron is getting baptized this week and Ron is a little bit bigger than the average person,so there are no baptismal jumpsuits big enough for him. Elder Durrant and I had to go on a hunt for 5x white pants of some kind. We searched Wal-Mart, Target, Meijers, Lowes, Men’s plus sized clothing stores and a few other places and you wouldn’t believe how hard it is to find white pants... let alone white pants that are 5x. So we were about to give up on our search when we came upon this Plus sized clothing store for women and so we decided to give it a shot and we ended up finding the last pair of 5x white pants in the store on the clearance rack... hopefully Ron doesn’t mind wearing some Capri’s. We also got the pool approved to use for his baptism! 

Third: This week was pretty great because we had members out teaching with us everyday and we have members signed up to come out with us almost everyday this coming week as well. Church this week was really good as well, Sonja came again for the third week in a row and we had another investigator named Casey there along with a returning less active family. Things are looking up here and the work is moving forward. I love being able to serve where I am. 

Other than that, All is well in Zion. 

Read your scriptures and say your prayers

Until next week,

Elder Frandsen
