Going Rogue On The Week Of The Dead

Image
Whattup ladinos,  A couple weeks ago someone responded to my email asking about the plural marriage lesson that I taught, and asked if there was anything for missionaries about teaching plural marriage or if I "went rogue". And I have two thoughts related to that: no there's nothing for missionaries about polygamy lol you just have to read Saints and second thought: the phrase going rogue is sick. super p day P day last week was super dope you guys. We had an awesome district activity so everybody came including the LZs. Early in the morning when everybody got here this huge truck also arrived and was like "yo did you order like 50 things of paint to repaint the chapel" and I was like "what" and then they made me sign this order form thing and we had the whole district unload a bunch of paint. Afterwards we played soccer but everybody had to steal my socks because they didn't have any :/ Soccer was actually pretty fun I was the goalie and I think I...

Whattup Blackflames, Super crazy week and also awesome and also kinda sad but mostly sick week! WE LIVED Portuguese dnd is still going strong and we did not die! 3/4 of us went unconscious but in the end the kraken was defeated. Now we just have to deal with the pirates. We also got to experience my second favorite thing with roleplaying games: extemporaneous arguments with the DM about minute details of how reality functions, such as: Does a kraken float like a fish after it dies? Can a ship be repaired using kraken carapace? Can a ship carry a kraken corpse behind it? Can somebody teleport while holding a barrel of gunpowder? Will a lit fuse stay lit through the process of being teleported to an enemy ship? Food for thought. The Aurelius Method So tuesday we had companionship inventory and I was like "elder what can I do to help you better" and he was like "nothing" and so I was like "Great. We are now implementing the Aurelius method then." What is the ...

Whattup korok kids, Using skills I developed from my many long years of being a DM, I have "artistically adapted" a new format for my emails with is completely original and has never been done before. Thus it is with pride and eager anticipation that I present this new format, which I have named the "just writing about every day of the week individually because I don't have patience, time, or creative kindling to do a fancy summarized and digestible thesis paper on P-day" format.  Ghost of P Day Past We just played D&D again haha. D&D is an absolutely incredible language study by the way. All sorts of fun words like "hidra", "afogar", "polimorfa", "relâmpago", and fun phrases like "Todos nós morreremos porque estamos presos entre um kraken e dois navios piratas rivais". It's a blast. Weekly planning day Today we had our weekly planning where we part all of our stuff on the calendar and make goals and ...

I Got A Dinosaur Egg From Burger King

Whattup Pachycephalosauruses, This week was pretty normal. Adjusting to training instead of just... doing mission stuff. I found a pretty sweet chicken burger restaurant in the mall. Invasion of the LZs So literally the day after P-day we get a call in the morning that the LZs are gonna do a division with us in the same day. So that was kind of interesting. I spent the day with one Elder Müller, who actually served in this area a while back. I've heard some very interesting stories about him haha but he was super fun to work with and he also gave me like 8 references of awesome people he taught when he was here. We also looked into some genealogy stuff which led to me accidentally starting a lesson on plural marriage with a recent convert so that was pretty fun. We also ended the day with pizza, which also ended my 3 or 4 day pizza abstinence. Overall, pretty awesome day. Vanessa!! Vanessa got baptized this week! Although technically she didn't cuz she had something come up and...
