Week 12- Friends and Hiking

Week 12 in the clink! It was a very good week this week, Me and Kochev found 12 new friends (investigators) they are friends because people thought it was weird they where called investigators, Well I see you as a child of God, no labels but this week was super good other then the weather, it rained all week except Monday On Wednesday we got poured on while we where knocking doors but we were so grateful we ain't on bikes and we have a cute little, white Toyota Corolla named Rocky. But the rain is good we had a General authority Elder Kearon Vvisit, and he said and I quote "choose to love the rain" I dont like rain, I ain't a tree but I have tried it out, I don't love the rain but it's not that bad. Also we met an Excommunicated dude who is super willing to come back to church and everything, so pray for him. But other then that it was good week. Also some dude guilt tripped me with the bible to give him some money, and ever since little Scotty Elder Kenfield was just a young lad he was taught to say no, but this dude was good. If he went on a mission he would have to sleep in his baptismal clothes for turning his mission into the waters of Mormon he was good! I should have given him a book of Mormon instead I missed my shot But I'll get them next time! Also some dude wouldn't take a pass along card cause the Jesus has lighter skin tone, he told us Jesus ain't white, he ain't never going to be white, and I ain't white (he was on the darker skin tone) but then we handed him a Book of Mormon pass along card and he took it, I was waiting for him to say the book ain't blue but he didn't. But my look on this is Jesus is also the son of God and we don't know what God looks like, so it doesn't matter what they looked like back 2000 years ago cause Jesus is also the son of God. Dang I'm good OJ should of hired me, also I read a verse that changed my life; it is Jacob 6:12, It's why I'm so wise and smart now No I'm still not . But the church is true the book is blue and the trinity ain't true. Love ya'll and Until next time.

2019

Well its 2019 Elders and Sisters! I feel the same as I did yesterday It hasn't been a half bad week here in Seattle, Well 2018 was so last year, so new year, new me! And also I come home next year "it's a great day to be alive the sun still shining when I close my eyes" Haha jk the sun doesn't shine in Seattle but it did run into a little beam of sunlight, we saw this lady walking so we're like let's talk to this lady so we stop her and we are talking about the Light the World that the church did this Christmas season, and then she blindsided us like a fat kid with a twinkie, she told us "I read the Book of Mormon everyday and I love it," WAIT WHAT!! I almost fell over, most of our members don't even do this. I was shocked! Then we talked to her more and apparently her husband is a navy seal and a member but she isn't and shes also from O Canada, so we talked for a fat minute and she loves "Mormons" she said "Mormons have the best work ethic." "Mormons are a family and you don't want to mess with them" "Mormons and so great" this lady loves Mormons and I mean like ya, we are great I'm great but it's because I have the true gospel in my life, hallelujah amen but this lady loves "Mormons" it made us laugh than she asked if the Mormons and Masons were in a war? Sorry ma'am Salt Lake doesn't let us disclose that information. But we just looked at her and chuckled about it. This lady was so nice I guess the Canadian stereotype is true they are nice people, then we left her with a prayer and she had us touch elbows and it was fun, I felt like a Baptist. But Canadian people truly are the nicest people, except the occasional (everyday) high person that is just chill and very willing to except the gospel until they sober up. But Canadians are always nice. But it was a good week it's been a good year so far, I love Jesus Christ, I love missionary work and I love Seattle.
Well I love ya'll lots and until next time

Christmas Cookies

I'm late posting this email, Scott sent it on the 10th Enjoy! 😋

Well it's been a good week, the sun came out and stayed out!! I have never been so happy proclaiming the gospel! Until yesterday I woke up and it was raining... ya who would have guessed. But all i can do is pray that it changes. With the power of my missionary power It will be sunny until I leave in 23 months. No but with this beautiful weather we set up a cute little booth we had free Christmas cookies, a sign, a tree, and a survey with 4 questions and the last one asked to put your number, so we could get their contact info us tricky missionaries and we set up at a weird liberal college called Green River, it has a more asians then China town it's insane. And they also have a lot of weirdos like any college would, but this is Washington so that all I need to say. Okay the highlights! Some dude walks up and asks why we don't keep the 3rd commandment? Keep the Sabbath Holy, cause he was part of a weird 7th day religion crap, so I just looked at this dude and laughed, then my companion started bashing with him, it was so fun, I love people. Then he pulled out his bible and said I'll prove to you that the sabbath is Saturday. Then i responded with do you think God cares what day we do it or that we do it? Then the weirdo walked away then we bashed with a Korean pastor. Couldn't understand anything but it was fun. Next up, a vegan. Ya that's all i need to say about that guy, but the best! then this dude walked up to me and started going on about Christmas and stuff then he says "you know Santa used to be real, he was a man full of jolly and presents?" Uhh ya when I was 5 I believed this. This dude was convinced Santa was real and people hunted him down and killed him Haha what!! Then explain how I get gifts on Christmas I love college kids. 
I committed an Asian named Tyler to be baptized!! But he isn't good at English and I don't think he understands what he got into. But fill up the fount baptize him and put it in the books!! Find, teach, BAPTIZE! numbers, numbers, numbers. That's all that matters but we might hand him over to some Chinese elders that can help him more then we can, sadly. But Seattle is lit. Love yalls and until next time.

I Finally saw the Sun!

Here is Scott's email this week.

Well I got a lot to say I tell you what. So far my mission has been pretty ssiiicckk. I finally got to see the sun yesterday and it brought a tear to mt eye living in Seattle in winter is not good for a one Elder Kenfieldapparently it was sunny all summer and had little rain and the days were beautiful then Scott Kenfield gets here and mother nature is like well I'm going to piss this kid off. I'm not joking when I say I have prayed and thank God for the sun, I looked at the sun and it was like the sun in Tella Tubbies and it smiled back at me and had a cute little baby face I'm not even joking, given I was on a college campus and its Seattle and weeds legal I might have been higher then the sun... I don't know! Then the sun smiled back at me and I heard the words "I've missed you." No joke that's a 2 way street Mr. Baby face sun I've missed you to lucky I have vitamin D supplements but if you could OD from vitamin D pills I think I would have by now each pill has like 2000 I.U. whatever that means, I take like 5 pills in the morning and 1 or 2 at night my goal is to have more vitamin D then the sun.

My companion... well my companion is a Ukrainian convert that English is his 3rd language, he's a goon. The first night I was here we all got on our knees for prayer and their were 4 of us and 2 of us were new, so we get on our knees and my companion starts to pray, " Dear Joseph Smith. Thank you for the new missionaries and the opportunity we have to preach thy gospel" okay so I was thinking, well he's a Ukrainian covert of about 3 years, so he probably is a weird Russian speaking man who probably just got done pounding some Vodka or some other hard liquor idk. But I'm holding in laughing cause no one else is. Then about 5 seconds later he starts laughing then we all just go off, i honestly thought he was serious but their is no way so we all have a good laughter then we actually prayed. But it was funny as heck. Then today we walked by a car and they had their bong out, then my companion asked if they needed help with anything🤣 they said no. But the best part of my companion is he doesn't understand some stuff in English like when I said Dirk Napped i had to give him a huge lesson on it, and theirs a place called mod pizza and he said "mud pizza who would want to eat mud" so I tried to explain to him that its not made from Mud and it's just a name, he doesn't understand. I have to explain a lot of words to him and I mean a lot. But in exchange I'm learning Russian I can say "how are you doing bad boy" it's weird stuff I'm learning but it's fun. He's pretty chill though the only bad thing is that he's a vegetarianhe said that I and I almost cried it's sad stuff but I mean more food for me, right? 

But guess who came to visit, Elder Gong of the 12!! We had a special missionary only meeting with him cause we are cool. And he spoke all 190 missionaries in the Seattle Washington mission. It's so cool having an apostle so close to you its amazing. So I shook his hand and told him where I'm from and talked for a second then moved on to someone into the 70. Did you know that Elder Cook and Elder Holland were mission companions ya neither did I it's so cool! 

But time for the bad news the area authority's had revelation to make dinner from 4-5 P.M. at night. And no member dinners on week days and everyday I've been here people have fed me and now that's gone like a fart in the wind and of you've seen my stomach you know I need a lot of food and now I don'

t. I need to learn to cook so if you got recipes please send to a brotha in need 

But I hope all y'alls have a good week and until next time love y'all.
