Lessons continue...
My birthday was great, I really loved it all. Thank you again for putting money on my account, and I had a ton of fun.
HAHAHAHA sorry, but that was kinda funny. But loving others more then loving myself has been more easy then I thought to be honest. But considering that I hold and wear HIS name, its time I think about others and serve others and put myself last. I can testify how true that is. I have learned MANY things on my mission so far and that is one of them. I truly do love serving the Lord. Even in the hard times. Its not that I'm "missing home" but its just a HUGE difference. From being lazy to actually working hard every day. That's a big leap for me. But I ain't complaining. Just saying how much I've seen a difference. AND I LOVE IT!!!
Our Investigator watched both sessions on Sunday with us and the family we were with. She is going to watch the Saturday sessions this week. She said her self after Elder Bednars talk, "Its inevitable that I'll be baptized" and we were like, lets do it now. But we have to teach one more lesson and get her to church one more time then we will be able to. SO we are STOKED!! :):)
I'm super glad that the kids and the fam bam is doing well. I do miss eating garden dinners but some families here do it as well, but not as well as home. But better then nothing :) I pray for all of you guys and I love all you guys!
Love you mom, thank you again for all you have done and continue to do for me. Ill send you the address tomorrow. We do Mormon.org on Tue. so we can familiarize ourselves so we can explain it to investigators. But sorry I was forgetful on that. Ill be better on remembering.
This week was very memorable for me. Monday for our Pday we went mountain biking, I crashed a few times and I biffed it hard core. It was kinda fun. It was raining so it made it dangerous is why I kept on crashing. But I loved it. OH!! and I was challenged to box some Priests and a teacher. These two box competitively, and note that, I've never thrown a punch at anyone in my life and never got into a fight with anyone. But, I went against the teacher and his names Preston, I was scared to be honest, I didn't know how to fight.. so we got into it, I dodged every punched he threw at me, I hit him with my left then later I got him with my right then when down for ten seconds. Then his older brother Ronnie got mad that I beat his brother, and before Ronnie said that I was going to get my world rocked. But Ronnie was surprised that I was fast and quick. So he said we were going to go half and half. But he went full out and I wasn't expecting it. SO he beat me down at first then I got back up and so I got really mad that he did that, so I backed him up to his corner and punched him with my left, he tried to recover, then I punched him with my right, right to the face and then he just dropped and passed out. I felt really bad so later after we were done with our appt. we went to the store and I bought them candy. I know I'm not out here to beat up little kids, but in my defense, they challenged me cuz they were talking mad trash. Their dad was watching and was happy that someone actually put them in their place.. He said that not me. But it was funny. I felt bad cuz I took a lot of anger out on them and they didn't deserve it.. But they are good and I'm better. IDK why didn't we try Boxing ;)? I could of taken so much more anger out on other kids then you guys. I do apologize for doing that in the past. Love you mom!!
Much Love,
Elder Green the Younger
