It's not voodoo, it's spiritual

We back babyyy! 


This week did a whole lotta bikin thats for sure!!! 
At least we have unlimited miles 😎

We have been working alot with inactive members because there are SO MANY of them here in this town it's crazy!!! 
We've had some funny experiences with some of them! 

We went and visited James who got baptized back in the 80's but a week after he decided he is part of a different religion?!?! 
Asked him where he stood rn and he said he be a Jedi-ite!
It's exactly what you are thinking right now... he believes that there is a force which has a light side and a dark side! 
I was mind blown!!! I was just trying to be respectful and not laugh because truly that is the most pathetic thing I have heard on my mission!!! 

We texted another member and asked how he was doing and he goes "not good. I just lost all my life's savings betting on college football last night and my cat died" 
Oh... 
Continues on to ask if he can get his tithing back... 
I died laughing!! Of all the crazy things that people try to say to mock us that was the greatest one and I wish I came up with it myself! 

Had a lesson with Vernise and she asked "why do so many people hate Mormons" 
Good question fr. 
I love when people just open a gate for us to teach all of the amazing doctrine that is taught in the church that people truly over look!!!!!!! 

Went to institute and Brother Charles had me crackin up!! 
We were reading a scripture and it talked about the devil and as he read "devil" he gasped out of pure shock and goes "oooh that's not good. No no." 
Tbh you just has to be there but it was the best thing ever.
I love Brother Charles! 

Weekly planned at Cafe Du Monde!! 
Best bengiets ever. 

Helped Gee go thru her 8 boxes of books just for her to keep them all because she can't say bye to literally anything!!! 
Gee was the queen of Mardi Gras at one point and I love hearing all of her stories about parades and events she has had to go to!!! 
People talk about her all the time and it's so crazy that we are just chillin with her twice a week going thru her mansion with her!!!!! 
She loves the church but can't give up the wine... 
Pray for Gee for real. 

As yall know Taysom Hill is in my ward! 
He was in Texas getting beat by the Texans but his wife and kids were at church and the elder who is new in the area walks up to us after sacrament so excited and goes "I literally just passed the sacrament to Taysom Hill's wife. I can die now!!!" 
Best part about it is that she heard him say that and just started laughing!
Too good!! Love her!
