Hey everyone!
So I just got to say thank you Grandma and Grandpa for the letters you guys send. They probably help me more then you think! I love getting them. Also Baylee! Thank you so much for the 2 letters you sent! I got both of them by the way. I was way surprised when I got a letter from you! Thank you so much! I was so happy to get them! I will write you back for sure, don't worry.
So there has been major storms coming and going here in Thailand. The streets in my area have been completely flooded. Apparently there was a huge storm that hit Laos and we are getting some of the affects from it. The other day it started raining at about 7 o'clock at night and it didn't stop raining until about 10 o'clock in the morning the next day. There were parts of the city that we couldn't go because the water from the flooding was up to our waist! I have never seen it so bad! We took a taxi to try and go find an investigator and that didn't work so well...Every way we went was flooded and the only way out was to go through the water. It was like our taxi turned into a boat and our boat had a leak. As we were going through the water, water started coming into the taxi! I couldn't put my feet down because it would have come up past my ankles. I think we ruined his car by going on this adventure. I felt kind of bad. We didn't even get to our investigator's house because the roads were flooded too bad. We spent most of the day on our bikes riding from canceled appointment to canceled appointment, trying to keep our legs out of the water. We did pretty good for a while but then we came to a road were it was just not possible. The water was way too deep and we had to go through it! Once into it my bike soon disappeared under the water and all that was seen were my handle bars. It was quite the ride. I was disappointed because for most of the day I had stayed dry! After that road it didn't matter anymore. We just rode wild! It was a lot more fun that way anyway. At the day's end, we looked back on the day's accomplishments and say that we were able to achieve absolutely nothing! We weren't able to get any work done because of the "Mother Storm". That's what I call it because following that storm, many other little ones came as well. It's rained everyday for the past week. It's even raining right now! It makes working hard but we are still getting it done. Our golden investigator Tig was suppose to be getting baptized this weekend but he said he just isn't ready. I don't know how to help him because he says he doesn't have any concerns but if that was the case he would be getting baptized! He knows it's true and has an amazing testimony. This Sunday, there is another investigator getting baptized and Tig should be going to it so hopefully it will help him see that there's nothing to worry about. I'm not to worried though. He will be baptized in the end.
Well I love you guys but I got to go!
