This week was good, but it was super hot! I have never sweated so much in my life! It's supposed to get a lot worse...I am trying to mentally prepare myself.
While we were out tracting, we saw a sign that pretty much covered all the bases of people knocking on the door. It read, "no soliciting, we know who we're voting for, we have found Jesus, and only if you're selling thin mints can you knock on the door." So, guess what we did? We knocked on the door! Nobody answered, but we weren't afraid to do it!
We met with one of our investigators, Jim, this week. He is one of the nicest people I have ever met! He is sincere about everything. When he prays, he says the most sincere prayer you have ever heard in your life. We invited him to read the Book of Mormon along with the Bible so he could use the cross references to see how they work together. hopefully, he gets the answer that the church is true.
Sunday was awesome! You learn to appreciate everything Christ did a lot more on your mission. We went to the Murray's (member family) for dinner. They are my all time favorite family I have met on my mission! They are missionary minded and love having us over! We also helped persuade the parents to get their kids and XBox. The kids love us now.
Well, that's it for the week! The mission is awesome! The church is true! I know that everything we teach people is the truth! If you don't know it, I encourage you to try it out for yourself. It will do nothing but bring happiness into your life!
Love, Elder Merritt
