This week has been another good one, we have met a lot of awesome people this week as we have been doing a lot of tracting. Just last night we met a young family with a 9 month old son. They let us right in and were super nice. They are Catholic and are very faithful. They were so open to our message though and accepted to read and pray about the book of Mormon! They were the last people we saw too, it was a great way to end off the day. We also got to go out with our mission President this week in our area. He has been going out with the missionaries to get to know the area better and the missionaries. It was pretty cool! We had a lesson with a set of twins we are teaching named Abdier and Abner. They are 11 and have been taught for a while. They are super smart though, President Cooper was impressed with how much they knew. The only reason why they aren't baptized is because of their dad. He has not said one way or the other yet, we are praying for a miracle with them. After their lesson we went and did some tracting with him. He was actually excited to go knock some doors haha. We found two really cool people with him. He is very good at making people feel good about themselves and is a great teacher. It was fun to go out with him. President Cooper is awesome.
We did some service on Saturday morning for a less active member Brother Flakes. He just had back surgery and is recovering. He is supposed to rest but he is up and at it, he wears this big back brace thing that looks like Banes vest from Batman. He is pretty funny. We mowed his yard and trimmed his bushes for him. He was very thankful, he tried to pay us but we told him we cant take money so he is gonna make lunch for us next week. I wish we got to do more service, we only get to once in a great while.
My companion and I are still getting along great, we like a lot of the same stuff. He is a funny guy but is a really hard worker at the same time. So far so good in the Valrico area. We are on car share with another set of Elders, so this week was bike week. We switch off every other week. Biking isn't too bad, you just get really sweaty. It has been super hot this week, I am looking forward to it cooling down. Oh and I realized this week that I have passed my year mark of turning in my mission papers! That is so weird, the mission is going by too quick! I hope I can make the most of it. I hope you all have a great week and accomplish everything you set out to do. I love you all!
Love Elder Hudson
