Obey the Word of Wisdom... if not, coffee=diarrhea

heyz all we got two Baptism interviews this week coming up , so we should have 2 people getting wet on june 4, one kid is 12 who has grown up in the church a little because his mom is a member, but wouldn't let him get baptized because his dad died and she felt like it would make the dad upset, because the dad is Buddhist! but a couple weeks ago she felt like the dad said he could get baptized.... so well we started teaching him... the other guy is 50,,, he is Buddhist and a taxi driver, he walked into the church himself about 2 months ago, saying he wanted to learn about Jesus,,,, about the first 2 weeks we spent teaching him how to pray correctly, since then he has been getting answers to his prayers... for example we taught him word of wisdom,,, and he was up on a mountain doing his morning exercises.... he prays and exercises there every morning,,,, well he prayed and asked if the word of wisdom was true,,,, if he's suppose to stop drinking coffee and he said 10 mins later he had bad diarrhea... haahah i laughed so hard when he told me this.... well at least he believes it was his answer... he was like i have drank that stuff for over 30 years and never had a problem till i prayed....hahah he's so funny, i love the guy! things are going good, our zone is getting better!!!!!
love elder Brunson
love you ALLLLLLLL

ROACHES!!!!

well for Pday, we spent 5 hours cleaning our apartment... it was a battle field, the missionaries won, the roaches had well over 30 casualties,,, not sure how long of a period of time,, but big chunk of those casualties were the 20 that came from the egg laid under my bed.... it was gross, i pulled my bed out and there were a good 15 hiding in the dark,,,, they were babies, probably just hatched... but it wasn't cool,,,, it seems to me every apartment i move into i have to clean,,, GUYS are SO sloppy,,, i hate Filth! we did the deep clean today 1030-330 today pday just GONE, but now we will be able to sleep well!
missionary wise we had a good week, miracles were all over,,, its gotten to the point where we are having to have to be careful with our time. we are now having to chose the good, better, and best decisions,,, trying to get the best in the water first, then the better then the good! i see us having two baptisms this transfer! we are working hard and the spirit is BEING felt ALOT!!! i love testifying on the streets! its almost dangerous that God has given me the skill on the street, because going home and getting numbers will just be to easy now lol hahh well i love you all ! the GOspel is TRUE! PEACE!!!
oh ps... aaron keep up the good work love you bud

Time's Running Out.... Last Phone Call Home

well i was able to call home, it was nice to talk to the family, i love how everyone expects me to bring home an asian woman, hahaha
time i guess is counting down for me, i believe that was my last call home. Elder Dean should be getting home soon i believe. well i got a new companion, his name is Elder Stoker, he is from Las Vegas, Elder Raskey has left, he was very emotional VERY!! it taught me a little more of how to open up, mostly because i had to or life would have been very tough. i liked him a lot, and it was a great chance for me to grow, but you all know how i am lol, not much one to express my feelings, like to handle things on my own, i learned this last transfer, that not only does it hurt when you say things wrong, but it also hurts when you Don't Say Things.... i had to tell my companion i loved him, he had to hear it, REMEMBER i like the guy, i'm just explaining the transfer i had, but yes i told him the way i explain him, is by saying he is a woman trapped inside a mans body.... i wasn't even used to being around women as emotional as him.... oohhhhh man what a great growing experience.
one thing i have learned about my personality since i been here, is i am a molder,,, i mold to those around me, like i change this quickly to make this work,,, but i am only willing to mold so far.
this transfer is going to be good for me, i'm killing my new companion, and he seems to be one focused missionary so i am excited.
well i love you all ELder Brunson
