Chicken Tacos

The most amazing thing happened this week, I got to eat tacos. Australia does not have good mexican food and it is a real shame! The Australian missionaries were making fun of me and Elder Kleven (my companion) that Americans always talk about how good Mexican food is.



We heard all about the Elder who died in Sydney a couple of weeks ago. They made us watch a bunch of safety videos so that we can stay safe and return back home to our families. Its really sad what happened and we are all staying safe out here its all good.
This week we helped a less active find a job. His excuse for not coming to church is that he doesn't have a job so we are going to change that. I applied to like 200 jobs for him and he was getting calls from all over Australia because I accidentally applied everywhere. But good news is he is getting calls ;) 

We are also getting phones tomorrow. We have gone over so much training on staying on task and paying attention to our missionary purpose. It's going to be a really good tool because we will be able to send videos and have short lessons with people who don't have time to sit down with us. 

I have been getting really good at tracting and keeping people at the door. You just have to make sure you don't sound like a salesman and act like a normal human being. My trainer has also told me if you look at their face and their expressions you can really know what to say and make them feel more comfortable at the door. We have been having more success everyday and missionary work is really helping me build my testimony. I know it is a the way of happiness and it's the only way to really be happy forever.
