Flashback with Scott & Kash Kunz just before mission |
If there is one word I could use to describe this week it would be RUNNING. As fun as it is to catch the bus and just be out on the streets talking to everybody, we actually have to catch the bus. And the bus system is terrible here. So we'll get out of a lesson and realize we're a couple miles from the bus stop and only have like 20 minutes to get there. So we just have to take off running otherwise we'll miss the bus. I never imagined I'd have to run this much on my mission.
Funny story we had while riding the buses the other day. We were catching the bus back to a lesson close to our house and we were already wayyy late. However, we were having a super good conversation with this one guy as we were on the way over. Such a good conversation that I completely stopped paying attention to where we were or how long we had been on the bus. I finally looked up and did not recognize where we were at all. I just looked over to my comp and was like SHOOT! So we ran off the bus and then asked someone where we were. Turns out we got off way too early. With our appointment in 2 minutes and the next bus coming in like an hour, we just started running. After about five minutes, we ran past a different bus and just hopped on having no idea where it was going. It ended up dropping us off literally right next to where we were going, and we ended up arriving way earlier than we would have if we stayed on the other bus. I don't know how things end up working out so perfectly, but they always do.
We've also been working with someone named Edward recently. He's 23 years old, super smart, and way interested in the gospel. It's been way awesome to be able to help him along and make decisions about where he wants to go in life.
