Week 60- Entebbe, Uganda with Elder Budu

Having you cut hair at home has been so cool and I definitely grew up hearing you having gospel conversations with your clients while you were working. My week came and went, nothing crazy. We taught a guy from Sierra Leone who is really cool named Albert this week and he wants to be baptized before he leaves for Canada in a few months. He asked lots of good questions. You can tell he has a good heart. That was probably the only serious lesson we had this week, we found a lot of people who are not serious. We also met a man named Amos, he’s an inventor who is teetering dangerously on the brink of genius and insanity On Wednesday Elder Woodland came over with his comp and hung out with us after district meeting and we had some good food. I had some ice cream and a doughnut hahaha.
Church on Sunday was great!  We had a few people we are teaching there and then we went and saw a less active guy right after who talked without me saying anything for about 45 minutes. On our way home we almost got struck by lightning. A storm was coming in and we were walking up a steep hill. There were a few other people walking near us. All of the sudden about 10 feet in front of us was a ridiculous bright flash of light and this crazy heat. There was a huge thunder crash and it knocked us to the ground. Then it started pour and we ran as fast as we could home.
We just had our first Stake Patriarch called on Sunday. He and his wife will be visiting Utah in a few months to see their daughter. They want to meet you while they are there. When it gets close, I'll find a way for you to get in touch with them. I am so happy! I love how much the first presidency has focused on families. I recognize how essential families are to Gods plan. We are here to help one another. Another life lesson I’ve learned here is how to budget. I’ve gotten into really good habits learning to live on my allotment. Tell Corbin I miss him more than he will ever know. I have all kinds of good memories from picking him up from school and making our secret ice cream runs. He’s such a good-hearted kid. I love you guys -can’t wait to talk again
