This week we taught so many people!!!!!! Man i
cant believe how many lessons we had, like an average of 5 a day! The bad part
is they all committed to come to church... ya not a single one came. Ahhh it’s
so frustrating! Now i just hope we can stay busy in the right way with the
right people!
Let me tell you of a tender mercy. It was my
dream to build a shack for someone it SA, well that dream never came true but i
got to tear one down this week. That’s close enough. One of our less actives
wanted us to help him way early in the morning so we walked up to this township
way early and people are looking at us funny. Then we start tearing down this
shack..... starting with the roof. Ok if you were wonder tin is not very
durable to step on. As i got up to the top and started to take out some nails i
was careful to step on the small wood beams underneath the tin roof but i
couldn’t see them. I got like the whole roof done except for one last sheet of
tin and as i was taking that out i made a wrong step and just plummeted to my
death. (so i thought) i also had a crow bar in my hand. Well when i was falling,
only God know where that crow bar went. But wait this is the amazing part, i
landed on my feet! It’s like i had angel wings man. Seriously, I have no idea
how i landed on my feet! i thought for sure i was done for! hahah The less
active guy saw the whole thing and was just amazed also! It was only maybe 8
feet from my feet to the floor when i was standing so not super tall but still
can’t believe i made it! Ok now i can tell you where the crow bar went.... ya it accidentally hit someone in the face....oops. What a tender mercy though! Don’t
worry mom, I’m totally safe. Another good thing that came out of it was the
less active came to church for like the first time in forever!
love you,
Elder Shaw
