Anybody Can't Do Anything

It is quite humorous listening to my companions sometimes, they have some peculiar phrasing that comes out fairly often. Probably because they are American.

Today has been busy so far: elders Lyman and Goff helped with a service project at a member's place who lives just across the road from us, almost, while I played football in Wassenaar with the other two (Robbins and Bean). After meeting up again (and eating something at the member's house), we went to the Stigters for lunch and so that they could try the Ninja Warrior Challenge, aka the Brian Clark challenge. It was very fun, and we played darts too. Elder Bean became the third person ever to complete the challenge (even though he touched his foot on the ground very briefly, making him the honorary third finisher). He did it pretty quickly too. Everyone thought elder Robbins would make it, but he was stymied by the second crossing underneath the platform. 

This week, we had a good number of appointments and taught a lot of people. We found only a few potentials, but did set 2 baptismal dates and plan on setting another one tonight, with brother Clark as joint teach. I think I should start keep a list of all the different nationalities I meet/teach. 

Tomorrow, we hear about who is being transferred, so that's exciting. And then on Tuesday, three missionaries fly in and we go through the whole process like we do every six weeks (and of course, pancakes!). 

Don't feel like you're on a "one-way train".
