Heat, Humidity, with a touch of crazy



What is up y’all? 

Haha so you can probably tell from the title the heat is back.  We were blessed for a week with nice, cool, dry weather, but now it is back to the good old heat and humidity of Louisiana. 

So besides the usual crazy we meet in the form of drunk people, this week we had a pretty interesting experience while we were trying to contact media referrals. We were walking up to a house for one of the Bible referrals we had, and we saw a guy out side of the house that we thought might be the one who needed the Bible.  We walk up to give it to him and he yells  from across the yard, "Don’t come here y’all! I got the devil in me right now!" So we said have a nice day and boogied our way out of there. Haha I think that the heat got to him a little bit, just like it does to us. I think I prefer just running into drunk people...

We had a super good experience with our investigator R this week. We were able to see him twice this week and he is doing awesome. He has kept the commitment he made to read the Book of Mormon, and has read all the parts we gave him to read both times we went over. We have taught him the plan of salvation and he liked the idea of being able to live with his family forever. We told him that one thing he has to do to get that is to be baptized; and so he is praying about a date that he feels good about to set as his baptismal date! Pray for roger that he can receive his answer. And something else we were super excited about was the fact that the end of the lesson he said the closing prayer without us asking him to. That was a great experience.

I hope y’all have an awesome week!
Elder Porter
