Troy Family Tales: Hype Milagros

Hey y'all!

Another week in the Midwest paradise. Both 80⁰ and 20⁰ with snow in the same week. It's never a boring day!!

This week we spent a considerable amount of time with a family of investigators making dinner! He taught us how to make Midwest meatloaf which apparently includes cornbread and bbq sauce? I don't know but it was fire. They are doing awesome reading from the Book of Mormon and their faith grows every day.

We had about a 3 week long drought of finding new people to teach. This week, we found 3! That is the hype milagro ("milagro" means "miracle" in Spanish) if you are wondering. Our friends Becca and Yasir are way awesome. Becca is a famous body builder and both are faithful people. So cool. The third us Jorge!! We found Jorge in the stairwell of his apartment waiting for his laundry. He recently just got back into reading the Bible and is looking for the right church for him. The day after we met him we asked when we could come back and teach him more, he said "right now!" So we sprinted out the door and taught him for an hour! Super exciting and we're eager to see how far he grows.

In other news: we spent an hour scooping poop for a service project, spent an hour looking for a lost dog, I made tater tot casserole, and that's about all you need to know. Being a missionary is the best!! We get to talk to people about God and tell them Jesus loves them all day every day. Life is weird, but in a good way.

To explain the sticky ball thing!! There are elders that live right below us in our apartment. They found this sticky ball that sticks to ceilings and walls and we are currently in a war of passing it to each other. Missionaries find the darndest ways to entertain themselves lol. The picture below shows one of our attempts!

Also: sorry if the emails are a bit short, but I think I don't believe in long emails?? Haha!

Jesus loves you!
