Well friends and family, this has got to be the most eventful week yet! We really have not had luck still here in Laredo which sucks! Sammy brought to our attention earlier this week that he has several warrants and court cases pending and several of them can only be settled by serving jail time! Soooo he will not be getting baptized any time soon probably. But I hope that he does continue to learn and grow in the gospel so that when he can finally make the step he does!
Speaking of jail, we went to jail to see Sammy's twin brother Jacob before church on Sunday! Unfortunately it was closed to visitors but we had a really interesting conversation with the security guard by the jail gate! It started by him asking us why we walk and ride bikes everywhere and then quickly progressed into him telling us his life problems and how he has 2 psychotic ex wives. He then proceeded to throw a word for word need that he has and pretty much asked us to help! Then we naturally explained that our message, the gospel of Jesus Christ, can help everyone with any problem they have and we offered to send elders to his house to talk with him! And then of course what is his reply? NAHHHHH that's alright! -__- No le creo! haha Seriously my adrenaline was pumping as I prepared to pop the question and then he just shot us down! Super hard! With a bazooka! Oh well what can you do? Darn you personal agency!!!! Okay so I have some pretty huge announcements to make.....
I GOT CALLED TO BE A TRAINER!!!!!!!!! And not only that......
I AM BEING TRANSFERRED TO OPEN A NEW AREA!!!!!!!!!
So yeah I am currently pregnant with a little verdecito and the contractions are getting really bad... I should be due sometime tomorrow! What the heck? I just barely got done being trained yesterday? and I am already training? And opening an area.... I think either God trusts me a whole lot or someone high up is laughing really hard just thinking about how screwed I am! Seriously I don't even know what to think! Even though the work is hard here in this area I have grown to love the area and the members in it! If I could make shout outs it would be to Sister Soto and her family and to the Bryand family! Seriously a blessing to have had the opportunity to meet them! For my last supper here in Loredo we are going to hang out with sister Soto! Oh and by the way she loves the book mom! haha She wouldn't read your note in front of me because she didn't want to get emotional :P But yeah here are some pretty sweet pictures of these past couple of weeks! There is me with two replica weapons from star treks, my step day companion, dinner last night with the Bryand family and then me showing brother Bryand who is boss! I am so scared and just hope that I can do the Lord's will! I need your prayers more than ever right now!
I love you all and want you to know that the church of Jesus Christ has been restored to the earth once and for all!
Con mucho amor y gracias,
Elder Spencer McKee
