Letter #8 Awesome letter! Love everyone of them!
Whats up my fam!
This week was a little on the slow side! We haven't been able to see Melvina so that's been frustrating! And on top of that our other investigator Ricardo told us he was gay so that was a interesting lesson! We saw Ricardo on Thursday and we talked about the Plan of Salvation. It was a really good lesson and he understood it well then at the end when we were talking about the 3 levels of heaven he asked and i quote "where do gay people go" ha! This is where the red head just looked down at the floor and gave it to the Chocolate man! But he did good explaining how
God loves all his children and how he just needs to change some things in order to get baptized and i added some things here and there but i was a little on the nervous side! haha But he understood and said he felt the spirit so that was good! He still understands why he needs to get baptized and he really wants to still! Conference was good! Its Crazzzzy Cedar City is getting a Temple i straight up called it before we got to the church and when they announced it everyone freaked out cause i called it! ha But i wonder if it will be done by the time i get home that will be weird! But we went to every session! And yes this was the first time i really paid attention and it went by fast! On Sunday we had a all mission fast so from 6 Saturday till 6 Sunday we didn't eat! i was about to pass out during the last session! And on top of that i told one of the other Elders Investigators Brittany that i would make her cookies if she came to Conference! haha gotta bribe them out here!! But they had a good time but it was super hard staring at 12 delicious white chocolate chip cookies all day! But we made it and a member from the East Orange branch invited us to come eat ate her house! she hooked us up it was way good it was Haitian food! She said me and Elder Black Smith are just a like cause we eat a lot! ha Well that's about it! today im going over to a new members house to lift with him his name is Esa he is a huge black guy who use to be in gangs and stuff he's got tats all over!but he converted like 4 years ago haha but don't worry mom ill be safe! :) Time to get my swell on!! Love you guys!

Letter # 7 Super Super Week!!! (I think I just make it till next week, now!)
What up Fam!
Im glad you had a good Easter and went to church! Im super Jealous you got to hear Brocks talk! Crazy he is back! Missed that boy! But i had a awesome Easter too! And a good week! This week went really good and crazy fast! We had a training this week on Weds and Thursday. So all the missionaries who have been out 6 months or less, went to it! My boy Jones was there so that was good to see his cute little face! ha But i learned a lot there. They just taught us the basics again how to get better at all the important parts of teaching it was fun and they fed us like Kings so that was cool! But also this week i didnt have any punk kids talk smack at me so i didnt have to ginger slap someone so that was good. But we met a some cool kids at a members house named Carmen. I think ive talked about her before. But she is 18 and couldn't go to church cause of her mom. But anyways, we went over to her house and met 3 new friends and we had a good lesson. They were all mad at first because they were having high school drama so i was sick of it, so i showed them the card trick where they slap the deck and i have the card they picked! ha ha they freaked out they probably think Mormons are possessed or something but it was a good lesson and they all showed up to church yesterday. On Saturday we went over to a member named Sis Daconte she has a 10 year old daughter named Melvinna! she is a cute little girl! Elder Jones taught her before and she had a baptismal date set but idk what happened! So we taught her the gospel of JC and she knew a lot so we invited her to get baptized again and she said yes! She is set for April 28th. So we invited her to church and then after Sis Daconte fed us African food and it was rice, chicken and beef and it was freaking on fire it was soooo hot/spicey! it tore me to pieces! haha i had major gas problems! But dont worry ma im ok now! But yesterday was really cool. We went to church and all our investigators came! And Melvinna came to! i told her if she came i would hook her up with candy and ohhh did i! she came and found me after Sacrament and i hooked her up! then i took her to class! This is where i figured out im going to be a push over to my kids! because when i dropped her off i kept checking to make sure if she was OK and i didn't want to leave her there! haha i wanted to go sit with her but it was cool she did just fine haha! but after church E. Davenport and Noxon had a baptism then we headed to the Parker's for dinner! they're super cool and have a way nice house. She is a way good cook. She made ham, funeral potatoes, fruit, asparagus with pepper jack cheese mmmm good! And for desert she made us homemade carrot cake it was freaking awesome! And we both had a chocolate bunny on our plates shes a saint! She wanted your number to so i gave it to her! but that was about it for the week! Today were going bowling and im going to destroy some clowns! But Chocolate is doing good he is ready to go home! ha poor chocolate man! But love you guys and Happy early B-day mom! i sent you a letter hopefully you will get it on time. love you guys!
