Elder Ethan Ellsworth - Bangkok, Thailand

สวัสดีครับทุกท่านนะครับ ! This week was transfer week! It was a fun one to be sure. Monday, we went and bought a CD for an LA we are working with. She says that it hurts her eyes and head too much to read the BoM so she likes to listen to it on audio. And so we made a CD for her to listen to. While the computer was making that all happen, we just did our studies in the morning. After that, we went and gave that to her, and then had a pretty tough lesson with her. She feels like she is out of faith and hope and just has kind of given up. May or may not have been some tears in that lesson. It sounds like she's got it pretty tough right now. After that, we had a YSA activity at the church and invited investigators to come as well. It was way fun! We played a way fun game called signs, and I really enjoyed it. And we got some new investigators out of it as well. Tuesday, we studied in the morning and then went to teach an investigator and his brother was there too...

สวัสดีครับทุกท่านนะครับ ! (Hello everyone!) This week was pretty good. It was a little slower than the last couple, but alright overall. Plus we had zone conference and got new social media and stuff so how cool is that?? Monday, we had zone conference all day. It was way fire too. I love zone conference. It's way fun. And we get way fire training. In case you couldn't tell already, it's just pretty much a fire day. And we get some great food. I'll just quickly mention alot of what we learned and went over, since if I wrote it all, it would take up all of the email. But basically we had a good talk about the principle of obedience, building good relationships with companions, finding and teaching to needs of investigators, and working on teaching skills and things. I really learned alot. After that, we had a chance to play jeopardy for a bit, all of the questions coming from PMG, and then the zone leaders gave us some training on social media use, and now ...

พี่น้องที่รักของข้าพเจ้า , This week was another great one here in the big city of Bangkhae! The work is progressing! It's so awesome to be here and be working with investigators progressing towards a baptismal date again!!! Monday was pretty สบายๆ , not too much going on, but hey that's what pdays are for right?? Anyways, we started off the day by going out and emailing, and then picked up some stuff for the house. We got a microwave for the house!!! That was pretty exciting. All we've had previously was a toaster and a hotpot. So a microwave is a big upgrade and we were pretty excited haha, and then we didn't use it until this last Sunday night... But it's been a great addition to the house! After that, Elder McCown wanted to go and by flowers for the house so we headed to a nearby ตลาด (market) to grab some. It was a HUGE place. Tons of different kinds of plants and things. Way cool. It was like the outside part of Home Depot except way bigger. Als...

Hello everybody!! This week was pretty awesome! We had a miracle in our numbers turn out this week, well until we go to Sunday and none of our investigators showed up on time, but that just means that we will have a ton come next week right?? I'm way pumped though because we finally have some daters to work with!!! Let's go! 🏊‍♂️🏊‍♂️ Monday was pretty chill ( สบายๆ ) we had not much to do besides email and go to the church to sit and hang out there... a little boring too, but I mean it was nice to take it easy for a day too! And it was there we experienced our first miracle! A random guy walked into the church saying that some sister missionaries whom he took to the train station a little bit ago (he's a taxi driver) told him to come and check out the church. And so, it worked out perfectly that we were there! We sat down and taught him the restoration, and fast forward a couple of days, he's got a date for later this month!!! Let's go!!!! Tuesday, w...
