After several attempts of calling every phone number we own...Wynn Palmer, the Cayman Islands Mission Leader, was finally able to talk to Laytn in behalf of Elder Montgomery and wish him a Happy Fathers Day. Elder Montgomery and Randle were visiting the Palmers like they do most every Sunday and because of mission rules Elder Montgomery was not able to talk to him, but of course we could hear him and Elder Randle in the background...."We Love You!...don't let Spit (his horse) go to pot...haha. Pres. Palmer said he has really enjoyed having Elder Montgomery serve in his area. He assured him that he has been working hard and is doing great. Despite the fact that Elder Montgomery "ropes" him all the time...lol...He said "I have nothing but good things to say about him...He's Awesome...You did good. We love having him in the branch."
ya that was way nice of WYNN Palmer to do that! we always go over there on sunday nights at like 8 or 8:30 and we just talk about our week. well we were just sitting there and he says so your get to call your dads? we said no he said well whats the number i'll call for you? we must of had weird looks on our faces cuz he said what... its not you doing the actual calling so we tried and tried i called every number i knew and finally Breht answered then we eventually got a hold of you guys so that was way cool of him!! he was like i know how it is and you probably miss your dads and all that! any how...i still havent got your package unless its there today we havent checked the mail as of yet! so hopefully its here.
.99 cheese, .65 pot pies and 1.19 aunt jermima waffles sounds like a good week already!!! lol that was the buys of the week here! we usually check the grocery store around lunch time to see what they have marked down like the stuff that has to be sold before the next day or so! so we got 8 bags of shredded cheese and a bunch of pot pies and a freezer full of waffles!! things are just so dang expensive here that we have to look for the deals sometimes. we think well what are we gonna do with 8 bags of cheese??? but we just cant pass it up so we get it!
2 baptism dates!!!! Kerry-an and Yolanda both have dates for the 9th of july if yolanda is still here she will be baptized here but she is planning on moving to England this week i think so thats a bummer. but the missionaries over there will get lucky! then Kerry-an is awesome she has been investigating for a while now and finally Clive moved back to Jamaica so now she can be baptized and thats awesome so we are stoked about that!!!!
We have to feed him???? haha we took Frank Rivers teaching with us he reminds me of Snuffy he is just a big kid he is 15 but could be about 23 but he is the nicest kid ever! Well his mom cooks us lunch every saturday so after we ate Frank came teaching with us he was with us all dang day! from 2 to 9ish well at 7 we left an appointment and he said are we done yet? we said nope one more in west bay he said ummmm.... guys... my... stomach... is... mad.... im hungry. i looked at Randle and then said We have to feed him??? it was hilarious so we stopped at burger king on the way and got him 2 cheese burgers and were on the road!
Lunch with the Rhones! Sunday morning we were talking on the way to church and we said we need to have a lunch today who could we have cook us lunch.... i said well maybe the rhones but usually she tells us before hand.. so we got to church had our meetings and then church started. the rhones came in a bit late but i was standing by the branch presidents office its right outside of the chapel. we were waiting on investigators. well anyhow sis rhone grabs my pen out of my pocket and walks to our dinner calendar and puts her name down for lunch WOOHOO!!!! well she out did her self thats for sure it was such a good lunch... almost like thanksgiving. Ham Mashed potatoes and corn on the cob and of course rice and peas and some roast but it was so good i loaded up on the ham its been a while since i've had a good ham like that!!!
Jack Henry gave his first talk on sunday! he is the one that got baptized not to long after i got here. He is the branch executive secretary and during our PEC meeting he was so nervous and after that he was pacing around up and down the hall. his wife went first and right when she said amen his face was like ohhhh crap its my turn i was in the back row and all i could do was smile at him he glanced over a couple times but still just seemed so nervous finally he loosened up but over all his talk was amazing!
Well i made a list of things that happened this last week and that was it! i got out of the shower and there was another one added to the list and Randle had written it on there and it says...
Elder Randle is AWESOME!!!! well that is true!!!! so i had better put that one here too!
We had a good week especially on finding! we found a neighbor hood that was pretty much lined with apartments. so we started on them and the street is only about 3/4 mile long but it took 2 or 3 days to knock on all the doors but we have got 16 new investigators this week! we have already seen most of them a second time so thats way cool it seems like alot of them are going to be really good! we were bummed that we only had 4 at church we were hoping for a big number but hopefully next week we can get some more to come out! but everything is going good here. we are tearing it up so hopefully good things come of it!!!! its cloudy today but has been pretty nice lately and yes its hurricane season so lots of rain but nothing to big yet its been raining alot in the middle of the night if it does so thats nice. we don't have anything planned for today we just go with the flow. anyways i love you all thanks for everything and have a good week!!!!!
LOVE STETSON
