Welcome all to this weeks adventures in Kenya as you can see in the subject I had a nice bash session with someone.  As well I'd like to personally Thank my Woods Cross High School coaches name Sam, Zach, Hoody, and Coach Allen for helping meet a new investigator this week.  Details below.

Story #1

Y'all ready for some fun? here goes:

So we did exchanges this week and on exchanges Elder C and myself  (we are both white, don't speak very much swahili, and are both still in training)  were talking to a return missionary. He said contacting works actually really well in Africa if you do enough of it.  Now my comp was in Huruma experiencing the same thing so, after exchanges we decide to up our contacting game big time. 

 Anyways jump ahead to the next day we are contacting after being bounced by a couple people, and this guy comes up and takes a book and then looked at it.  So we introduce ourselves, you know the standard intro stuff, we talk a little share a bit about the Book of Mormon, and this dude asks to see my bible.  So I'm like okay chill, here ya go,  he looks at it and gives it back.  He seems pleased. Then he starts asking really dumb questions, like questions you know he thought of before hand just to bug us and to stump us.  Now I'm getting excited cause I'm locked and loaded ready to go and this dude has no idea.  He starts asking about why we don't believe in the trinity.  ( Now when he brought up the trinity it had been about five-ten minutes, and we needed to go or we would be late for an appt.) I know at this point he is just here to bug us, So I'm like , lets go boy, lets go.  Long story short we talked for about THIRTY SECONDS more before this guy says, "Allow me to call you when i can better defend myself, you make a good point." He left I counted it as a win.

Story #2

Flashback to a morning run a couple weeks ago,  While hurdling a barrier I get a compliment from some dude saying I had beautiful form running and steepling.  No idea who he was, but he was stretching and he was a runner, cool dud!.  Flash forward to Friday, we are walking home from an appointment and contacting a little and some dude comes up and says "Yeah I know you"  ( we are the only two white guys in Langas, this is not uncommon) so we are like "yeah, we are the wazungu we are around here a lot."  He's like "no, you're the runner with the pretty stride".  I met you a couple weeks ago while I was stretching" At this point I'm super happy, one because this guy is a runner, two because he complimented my form and three because potential new investigator.  We ended up talking for a little while,  He is super cool and we are meeting with him again this week to teach him the gospel.  The lord uses the talents you have.  Pretty much Follow your coaches advice because not only do you get faster times, it will help you meet people when you get called to Kenya.

Elder L isn't against running as much now.

Hope you've enjoyed this weeks adventures in Kenya,
