Poison Ivy

Hello friends and family!

This week was an adventure and we had some funny things happen. The main thing that happened this week is that my beloved comp Elder Zinn has been suffering from some insane poison ivy hahaha. Like it's bad though, it started out as a stripe on his leg and it's spread to both legs and all the way up his stomach to his chest. So we got to research some ways to try and get rid of it. Zinn was taking like 8 benadril a day at one point but we realized that probably wasn't healthy. Eventually we went to the urgent care and they gave him some steroids and told him to take an oatmeal bath (you best believe I have documentation of that). 

Other than my companion almost dying from a rash, it's been kind of a boring week. We knocked a lot of doors and are trying to build up the teaching pool here and get people to church. Things are looking up, slowly. We'll get it though. 

School starts here pretty soon so we are excited to kick it with the YSA elders and teach a lot of college students. Should be pretty lit when they all move in. One thing that was surprising here is how many Asians we teach. It's insane! Everyone is from China and Taiwan and they are here for school, so we teach a lot of people that have no background in God or Jesus Christ. It's a different feeling for sure, but it's way cool. We're trying to learn how to OYM people in Chinese but it's way hard, mad props to all the people that speak Asian languages. 

We'll that's all I got for this week, hopefully we will have more exciting news next week. Pray for Elder Zinn's rash, also pray that I don't get it! 

Love you all!

Elder Zinn convinced our whole zone to take Pre Workout before Pday, lol:


This thing is called a cicada killer. they are like a giant wasp. if you have ever seen a cicada, these things kill those... yeah:


A member gave us a whole pizza but we had to walk home so Zinn carried this pizza for like 5 miles:
