We were able to try by a lot of former investigators this week. We went to one house that didn't answer, and we were about to leave, but my companion thought we should go to this other house down the street and it turned out to be a recent convert who was inactive because of her parents. We have gone by since and things are going a lot better for her!
Yesterday we went a member's house who speaks no English, but her husband isn't a member and is bilingual. They cooked us up some awesome Mexican food and we had a good lesson with them. While preparing the food, they brought out this hot sauce. The bottle was black with a red "X" on the label. That probably should of told me not to try it, but anyway, I go up to this guy and I'm like "Do you want me to try it?" He warns me that it is super hot, and that's coming from a man who eats habaneros "like candy" as he said. So of course I dumped a bunch on this chip and ate it. Little did I know that It was Ghost pepper sauce with habeneros and Ghost pepper extract in it. I basically died on the spot. I looked at him with tears in my eyes and said that it wasn't really that hot. He started laughing, called me crazy, and said I have his respect. We also set up a return appointment from that so the pain was worth it!
We went with a member named Chick Burney (He's about as cowboy as it gets) and we visited a less active with three kids. She has three kids and is a single mom. We found that her son is old enough to get baptized, but isn't, and that she said we could start teaching him! Their family will be strengthened as they draw closer to Heavenly Father!
I love y'all and have a good week!
