Challenge week
     This week Elder Bowman and I have been doing all kinds of challenges... We tried the sprite and banana challenge, coke and mentos, and we have eaten jalapenos and today we are going to eat habaneros.... The sprite and coke challenge sucked!!! I felt bloated for the whole day. Those two challenges are suppose to make you puke and then the jalapeno are just hot!! My mouth was on fire for like 30 minutes and then had a stomach ache the rest of the day.... Yes, I am week when it comes to hot stuff. Even as a missionary you do stupid thing during your lunch and dinner. Boys will always be boys.
     This week we are preparing for (bill) baptism. Its going to be on the 24th of May. He is so excited for it and so are we!!! He had is interview yesterday and past. He has a strong testimony on tithing and the sabbath day. He said, "every time I miss church I feel like my week doesn't go as smooth and the week goes by slow. Tithing I know is a huge blessing and even though I haven't payed yet I have seen the blessings that come from others paying tithing. (his girlfriend that moved out. She is a member) We are excited to see him take his first ordinance and to make this covenant with God!
     We also have 4 other dates and they are: (Jim) set for July 19th. (Sarah) and (Kay) are set for July 19th as well. And (Tina) is set for June 30th. I love this people and they are doing great! I'm glad I am apart of their progression in come closer to God. I am so thankful to serve in this area and to meet all these wonderful people. We also plan on setting tow more dates this week. Thank you for the prayers and the support.
Love,
