Exhaust and Miracle Monday
Another one!Hello Ladies and Gentlemen! This is Elder Kenfield, and I'm back! Well its been a couple weeks since I've emailed and I'm assuming you all have been saddened by this
But i'm back like 80's fashion. Okay so just to let all yalls know I was transferred! So I got transferred into and area with a companion from Taiwan! I know I keep getting these foreigners, and they keep getting me, Lucky them! So I'm now in a town called Renton, it is a nice little town surrounded by some of thE most expensive areas in Washington. Most of these homes are like 3500 sq ft and cost around 700,000- 1 dollar bills
And they aren't even brand new they are typical older. But their are also a lot of brand new, really nice homes that I couldn't imagine how much they cost
good thing there is Boeing, Microsoft, Amazon and Nintendo keeping everyone employed over here. Okay story time, so I was on exchanges with another missionary Elder Foster, so we bike up to this house where an inactive member lives, and so we lock up our bikes on a telephone pole across the street (not a honest place) and we walk up to this door and we see that his truck exhaust tip is shaped like the Chevy logo, and this kid loves Chevy's so he is just super happy and looks at it for a minute, then we go walking up the side walk to the door then this 5'5 skeleton walks around the corner of the house and is like "What are you guys doing?"
so we say "Building a spacecraft" What does it look like we are doing? Just kidding we didn't say that. So we tell him we are looking for Michael and he says "are you guys Mormons?" No! I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day saints, thank you very much. And then skeleton man says "Michael he aint here" so we ask when he will be, and he says I prefer not to answer or something stupid like that so we say "Have a good day," bye
then we walk to our bikes unlock them, and look up who we are going to visit next.
And then I turn around and skeletal man is walking back towards us
and he walks up and says "There is surveillance all around this house and we saw you guys looking in and around my truck and at the license plates, blah blah blah, so I will ask for you not to come back, and I got your guys photos so ya" )want me to sign that photo for you sir?) So we are like okay what ever, thanks, you should join the secret service because of your surveillance skills. Then this child of God walks away. Then my companion and I just start cracking up, Like did you really go inside and look at us walk up and start taking screenshots of us, while snacking on some potato chips? I thought it was funny! So moral of this story, sometimes as missionaries you realize some children of God have nothing better to do then catch Mormons in the act of looking at their exhaust
But also he will come around one day and he's probably a good guy but maybe just some ex military surveillance guy. But also Miracle Monday I will get my first baptism on Saturday the 13! and baptizing a young man from China I'm so excited!! I love being a missionary.Well love yalls and Until we meet again
Elder Kenfield
