Brody hits his 6-month mark this week. Things are
still pretty slow for him in Coalinga. It sounds like he is having some
interesting experiences. I told him that I heard it stunk in Coalinga. He said
that he either didn't notice or he has been there so long that he has the same
odor on him. Thanks for your support. He sent a couple pictures that will be
posted on his blog.
Hello everyone, how are you all doing? Things are
pretty much the same here. We had an odd week. So one night we were outside of
the gas station waiting for Gurvinder and 4 drunk guys walked up to us and
called us the God Mob. They were so drunk and falling on the ground. Then one
of them told us to hold his cigarette, we told him no and he got pretty mad. So
after they went in the gas station we got out of that area as fast as we
could. Another thing that we did was we did some service for a 95 year old
women. I will send a picture of her and me. The biggest thing that happened was
we had to help out with a funeral on Saturday. It was at the church but it
wasn't an LDS funeral. It was a 27-year-old guy. All of the people that came
were a rough looking bunch. The funeral was sad because a priest from the Church
of England spoke and the after life that he explained was not happy at all. He
was in his robes and it was something that you won't see very often in an LDS
church haha. After he spoke the 2nd counselor in the bishopric spoke and he
even brought up the Book of Mormon...the priest was so mad. I think the chapel
needs to be rededicated because of all the clapping that went on and I also
noticed that everyone had their own little flask. They would pull it out when
they thought that no one was looking and take a hit. Everyone there had
probably never stepped inside of a church building. After it was over Elder
Falslev and I spent about a half an hour cleaning up the cigarettes in the
parking lot. It was ridiculous. That's all that happened this past week. I love
you all.
