St Lucia is pretty amazing! Today is an incredibly hot day! We played basketball this morning! So we got super sweaty. I'm gonna be a basketball star when I get home we have been playing every morning at 6:30 (3:30 at home) There is a court right beside our apartment!
I just realized I never told you about my mission granny. She got sick and was in the hospital but she is doing great! She is a lady who was baptized on a stretcher. She cannot walk because she has a blood clot in her leg that did something to it. But she is awesome and she loves her missionaries! She says we are her favourites, anyways I can't believe I never told you about her. Every time we go over she feeds us.She is super nice unless you get her vexed, then she just might through a knife at you.. and yes that actually happened haha not at us though.
My talk went surprisingly well. I tried giving a talk with nothing but the points I wanted to talk about and it went well. There was 16 investigators at church that day, and my talk was on the restoration. So it was a good talk for the time. 2 of the investigators really wanted to talk to me after the sacrament meeting. We discussed the restoration more, it was awesome! It was supposed to be a 10 minute talk but the other speakers left me about 20 minutes... but don't worry I talked for 25 haha!
As for baptisms they are all in the ocean! Kinda cool! We have no font, and yes we almost ran out of chairs last Sunday also! So I'm loving it! We will buy some soon!
So as for dads birthday I did actually remember it! The day before! One of our investigators (who has a baptismal date) has the same birthday as him! This lady make the best chicken ever! its 5 times better tasting than KFC and half as greasy! So amazing! And she knows that our church is the true church! Oh cool story about her, I don't know if I have said this already, but she was praying for God to send someone her way so that she could know the truth about the gospel, and we walked by her shop the next day 3-4 times, and on the fourth time she called out to us cause she thought we might be that answer to her prayer! :) So cool! anywhoo
This P-day is going to be a relax P-day. Just chill and stay cool! so its nice! I don't know when we are going to climb the Piton. I think we might go fishing first! Don't know when these things will happen!
Oh Another cool thing, we are teaching this lady named "D", she is older and is addicted to cigarettes, she wants to stop and wanted our help, or for us to pray for her, so she called us over and we starter talking to her, this was 4 weeks ago, we have taught her many times and just yesterday what we teach finally clicked, and she is starting to progress! But every time we went over she would have another child or friend over and now we have 6 investigators we teach at her house! So it's cool! :)
Oh and yes I got my transfer call on Saturday! I'm going to!!!!! stay here!!! with Elder Schroeder ! So that's awesome! I'm super excited! But it's crazy that one transfer has already gone by! My time here is flying by! So crazy.
Well I love you! Have an awesome week!
Love Elder Pierson!
