Elder May: Chapter 71



Families of missionaries never stop worrying about their missionaries – at least this one.  Hayden and his companion have been sick for quite a few days and not getting much better.  They have seen the doctor but no reprieve so far.  Now, Hurricane Irma is headed right for Port Charlotte.  To put in perspective, Harvey is a Category 4 and Irma was just upgraded to a Category 5.  We are in contact with the mission home as they prepare to keep all these missionaries safe but still, we can’t help but worry.  That being said… we know that he is where he should be and we know that the Lord will watch over him and the other missionaries.  Just keep an extra prayer in your heart for him if you can.  Love him, miss him but oh, so proud of him!  Enjoy!!

Chapter 71

1.            Referrals are awesome
2.            Rain is my favorite thing
3.            Being sick is not my favorite thing 

This will be a shorter email because there isn't much to talk about. We saw some cool things come from some referrals we received recently. 

A couple of missionaries in Tampa were teaching a man named Joe. They had taught him maybe three times and had just introduced the Book of Mormon to him. Then he told them he was moving out of the area to our area so we helped him get moved into his house Thursday evening and we learned that it is going to be him, his girlfriend, his sister and his sister has two daughters, aged 11, and 14, and hopefully we are going to teach them all and they can get baptized and it will be cool!
Second, it has been pouring rain! We have luckily had a roof over our heads each time it has poured down. The other elders haven't been so lucky each time. So we went and picked them up one night. It has just been 30 minute monsoons that come from no where but that's what happens in Florida summers. (If I ever move here again, I am going to be a snow bird. None of this summer stuff). 

Last, we are sick. Which sucks. I'm sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. So we have just been trying to recuperate and feel better and more cool stuff will happen. 

Anyway, I love you all! Here's a funny picture I found. 


 
Hehe book of mormon humor.

Love,
Elder May
