Monday Message: April 20, 2015

He said he was doing good today except he is sick again. Said he had a runny nose so I  told him to shove some toilet paper up there and his response was that he needed a tampon to get it stopped! Funny kid! This Saturday will mark 19 months down with only 5 to go! He will be home before we know it!

Well this week has both been fast and slow. The first half went so fast i didnt even realize it but the last part drug on. I got a small cold that hit me last night and then today it is still there! but other than that we had a great week!

So this week has been good in teaching two of our investigators their names are Abiola and Kazia. they are from a partmember family named the Shepards and they are doing great. They are preparing themselves to be baptized this week on wednesday the 22nd. I am so happy and excited to see them make this step. Elder Pollard and I have been working on our unity in teaching as well and we even had Elder Christensen with us this week and we have made a commitment to use at least 1 scripture each in the lessons that we teach. It truly helps in the lessons and the way that the investigator feels and gets things out of the lesson!

So my funny daryl moment for the week happened on wednesday. So the current here is a little different some times the wall plugs are 120 volts and sometimes they are 240 volts. And good old me coming from barbados where everything is 120 didnt think to check and we had just bought a new fan that cost us $10,500. for you in us that is about 55 dollars. and i got home and was so happy to finally have a new fan plugged it into the wall. it started so fast and me and elder pollard were confused and it ran for about five minutes and shut off. we thought it was jsut a black out because that happens often here. but then we smelt something burnignb and low and behold it was the bran new fan! it had burnt up. i guess it couldnt handle the double power haha. so we ended up getting a 240 volt fan that only cost $6000 this time.

So that was basically my week. i hope you had a great week! i love you! have a good week. ps i hit 19 months this saturday! wow!

Love

Elder Woodruff!
