Grind All Day

First things first.
Sorry I didn't write last week!
All is good. London is great.
Elder Ward and I have had a pretty interesting week. Everything from disarming gunman and calling 911.... don't worry though everything is good.
So we started the week off pretty good on Tuesday and we were able to watch the worldwide broadcast from President Nelson! We are also able to watch the press conference. If you had the opportunity to ask the prophet one question what would it be?
The next day we had a sweet lesson with our investigator Alexander, we are pretty surprised that he is progressing so well after being pranked by his friends to have the Mormons come over.
That same night we went to dinner at Brother Lafrance's House, and as we were leaving he stops us at the door, walked in his office and put an airsoft gun in my hand. He told me not to put my finger on the trigger or he would break it. And in less than a second took the gun from me and had it pointed in my face. This guy is crazy.
The rest of the week was pretty steady until Saturday, we had to go to the church to help the Chinese elders prepare for their baptism. On the same day President and Sister Shields came to do interviews with our zone. So all in all we were at the church for about 7 hours... it was good though we were able to fill up the font for LiLang's baptism, unfortunately the water heater in the church is weak so the water is freezing. The last crazy thing that happened was on Sunday. It was Ward conference and the stake president threw a curve ball and just didn't show up... after church we were helping Cynthia pick out her baptismal dress when she started to not feel good and we ended up having to call the ambulance who came and picked her up right out of the church... She checked out ok though.
It was a good week.
Hope you all have a good week!
