This Week in Perdido (lost) 2/27/17

So this week was great! I got a few packages from my loved ones! Thank yall so much! I really appreciate it! PS I am sending letters, I just did not have any time this week! Sorry :( But I love all of you so much! I really love and appreciate all the support! It really helps like so much!

This week was fun! We had a trade off with the Spanish Elders so I went to the Spanish area. It was a lot of fun! I said a few prayers in Spanish and bore my testimony (not in Spanish, I aint that good yet) to some Spanish investigators, It was awesome. The gift of tongues is real! During the lesson they were speaking Spanish and everything and it was weird because I could understand what they were saying and what was going on. (most of the time) but it was really fun to go on a Spanish trade off!

Elder Christensen and I go to some pretty run down neighborhoods. SO we were going to go visit a less active and their are some kids outside playing and throwing a football, so one of them throws it to me and I start playing with them for a second. We both ask him what his name is and he says: "My name Quavion, But my nickname DANK" It was the funniest thing we have ever heard all day!!! We didn't laugh about it until later when we realized like what he said and re played it in our heads hahha I LOVE THE SOUTH! ROLL TIDE!!!

We did A LOT of going door to door this week, a lot of doors slammed in the face and rude comments but then we get the awesome chance to meet the elect. The people the lord has prepared for us to teach! We had like 3 people who really took our message well this week! Its so awesome to find out people are searching for something and then we show up! hahaa

We have had a lot of spiritual experiences yesterday (sunday). I had the opportunity to give a talk in sacrament on faith. So that was really good, a lot of people loved it so im glad the spirit was there to teach and not me haha The mission is awesome! I love this work, And all the people in it! I am so grateful for my family and friends back home who give me so much support! I think about yall all the time! I drive past a lot of things that make me think about all the different moments I have had with all of you!

So this morning was rough, I woke up at 4:30 AM with the biggest stomach pain and it hurt so bad I almost woke up the elders to take me to the quick care. After hours of pain and wanting to puke, I was finally able to lay back down at like 6:30 AM and then all the alarms went off hahah I had to just sleep in but it was the worst night ever. I am doing better now but I just hope my appendix didn't like burst or something. I guess we will find out. Overall my week has been awesome! A little girl drew me a picture at dinner last night with a member and it was so cute. I miss being able to play with little kids in nursery! Like my main beau babes and all my nieces and nephew.

I love yall so much! Have a great week!!! My next baptism is March 11th!

Love, Elder Graham!
