Hello,
I actually stayed in Frankfort, Indiana it is the first time I did not get transferred since being here so it has been good though it will give myself and Elder Allred (companion) the chance to see David one of the guys we committed to baptism. However that being said neither of us will baptize him because the Branch Pres. here taught David in high school and so he wanted him to do that baptism but it's cool we get to be here and watch this happen for David he is such a stud!!.
We met a new guy named Eric and went in and shared our message with him. While doing so he asked his little 4 year old boy to go get some water in a bottle for his baby, the bottle had a bit of formula in it and this boy walked past me, and i was sitting on the floor cause this guy had no chairs, and he dumps this formula on me. I was like WHHAATTT?!?!?! I just laughed and shrugged it off, thats what makes good memories is when you dont make a big deal about something funny like that! It was a sweet experience!
I got invited last week to go back to Indy 2 to see the McClinticks get baptized. Elder Thomas and I in Indy 2 found this family and they invited me to come back and to witness it. They asked if i would give a brief talk on baptism and i did. It went so well and it was awesome to see someone that i found be baptized! Elder Allred and I are doing great! We have our times but we get over them quickly. Were enjoying working together alot!
The weather has been chilly,raining and wet the last few days, so ive gotten good use outta my jacket and its holding up very well. Today is sunny and on the cooler side. We have been experiencing some nice, nice weather here. We are being blessed so much with it! I am so excited for the winter. You know me i love the elements and i have learned to love them more while i ahve been out here cause were in it all day long! Cant wait to get back home and go hiking or riding bikes in the rain again or go shoveling the foot and a half of snow! Im pumped for the day.
So for those of you who don't know Indianans have some sayings out here that are just funny so I have heard some good ones like
I hear the phrase "wicked awesome" at least once a day if not more! There are a lot of other phrases that Indianans say that are funny like, "sweeper" that's a vacuum, "a couple three" and that's just a few. It's all good I may yes bring some of that slang back with me ya never know.. We have a huge zone conference tomorrow for the whole mission. Its for training on the mormon.org media blitz that is going to be happening here in Indiana. There going to be have commercials, billboards, signs on buses and taxis and more. It going to blow Indiana up we are hoping, so i am looking forward to that! Also, I am looking forward to General Conference so much. I hear its like the super bowl for missionaries. Im pumped! David, our investigator, is going to be making his famous sweet chil
i for the priesthood session. David is SOLIDDD!!!!!!
Well I think that is it for today! Have a good week and well be talking soon. Love ya!
Ya'll come back now ya hear? -Bro. Brackett (ward mission leader, hes so awesome)
Love you and miss you so much! :) -Elder Fausett
