Hello Family and Friends!
|
I dont think that these people like us very much knocking on their door.... |
I once heard that as
you grow up time goes faster because when you are 1 year old a year seems like
a long time because it is 50% of your life… when you are ten years old it is
10% of your life and when you are 20 it is 5% of your life so on and so forth
until you die... Scary thought because the time flew by this week and somehow
here I am again writing you on Preparation day.
Well here are some things from the
week:
1. So this week we had two
progressing investigators move out of the area :(( Jessica is moving back into
down town Cleveland and Michael found another foster home on the East side. So
that put a big dent in our progressing investigators that we have. But life
goes on.
2. Thursday night at 3 in the morning
I was woken up by gun shots that were a lot closer than usual so I woke up
Elder Allen and all he says is, "How close are they?" And I said,
"Like 2 or 3 blocks" to which he responded "Ehh wake me up when
they are a block away" and that was that. So I went back to sleep and
nothing else happened. lol.

3. It warmed up a lot this week so
there has been 4x as many people out in the streets, which is a missionaries
dream come true. So we were able
to find some more new investigators to replace the two big ones that we lost.
But with the warm weather there is a lot of people outside playing basketball.
One night we were headed home and we were walking by an investigators house and
they were playing some basketball so they stopped us and asked us to come play
with their friends. So, of course we agreed because it was a gold mine for some
new investigators. So we played and we won so they said that they had some food
from Easter inside. So we went inside and ate with them and were able to teach
them the restoration and pick up a new solid investigator.
4. Elder Allen and I were sitting
down after daily planning last night and he said, " I need a haircut and
they are expensive" So I had the great Idea of saying " I’ve seen my
dad do it a couple times.. can't be that hard." So the next thing we know
I am cutting his hair, haha. Needless
to say he only has like 4 bald spots now... just kidding, I would have to say I
did pretty well for a first time. But I definitely don’t see myself going to
beauty school.

dahhhh city |
5. With it being Easter and all I
have been thinking a lot about is the atonement of Jesus Christ and the Resurrection.
That knowledge alone brings so much hope and promise to life. I am so grateful
for that knowledge. I am grateful for the healing power of the Atonement. I am
grateful for the gospel. And I am extremely grateful for the knowledge that
families are forever.
Mosiah 14:3-5
The church is true and the book is
blue. Love you all! Until next week,
Elder Frandsen
