Well we just got done giving a blessing to a recent convert named Angel. She is super cool. She was baptized last September. Her dad is Stephen J. Bronder, the Commander Master Chief of the Sasebo Naval Base in Japan. He is at the highest rank you can get in the Navy. And he is anti against the church. He sent her an "easter" letter this week and she felt like she needed a blessing. He is constantly giving her crap.
This week we recieved a text from Erika saying that she isn't really wanting to continue to meet with us until her friend, Darby, comes back from school in the summer. It's a bummer but to be honest, it's probably best, because by then she will be moved out from her dad's house and able to make a decision without any influence. I will be out of the area but its ok.
For my birthday, if it's easier, everyone can just send money. Rather than spending $15 on stuff, then another $15 to ship, you can just mail $30 haha. Whatever is easier. And I can buy what I need to. Just an idea.
Looking forward for this week. Hoping for some miracles! I gotta get running now.
