Elder Dylan Eveson's Mission: Week 98 - You are 3 sum?? I can't use you!

Those were the wise words we heard from Elder Stevensen last week! Last Monday we had a chance to have a special meeting with Elder Stevensen, and it was a great 2.5 hours we had! We got to hear some testimonies from everyone that was traveling with him, then he gave a training to us missionaries about keeping commitments and how we can become better teachers through helping our investigators keep their commitments! It was a great day, and spiritual experience and also it was great to see some good mission buddies that I don't get to see very often!

So a couple of funny/cool experiences this last week! I forgot to mention this last week but I was on the bus coming home when someone calls and our phone doesn't recognize the number. I answer it at it turns out to be a member who is probably in her 60's or so and I ask "why do you have a new phone number?" then she went on to say she found a 15 yr old boy playing basketball and was smoking and she went over to him chastised him a little bit then told him she had friends that could fix his life! She passed the phone to him, and he was a little weirded out on the phone and we never met with him but its a pretty funny story!

Wednesday was the McDonald "Pie Day!" and pies were half price and they had a new 1 day flavor and it was sooooo good!! Then Friday I went down to Tai Po on exchanges with my good buddy Elder Paulsin and actually most of the day turned out to be helping the sisters missionaries move apartments, but we got to teach a lesson together, and did some basketball finding! (He's a straight baller), but man we got roasted by this group of kids even with a total of like 20 3's between us and some members playing with us we still lost 3 straight games... but it was cool because we had 1 non member on our team that loved us and could become a future investigator, and some of the other kids recognized us as the "guys in suits" that walk on the street! so honestly I think it was a success and the Tai Po Elders have solid potential in some of these kids!

Then Sunday was a lot like last week the ward took our investigator in and Sami once again was well fellowshipped. I talked to her once all Sunday, so that's great!

That was my week love yall!
