You know what is so great? The Book of Mormon is. Right now I just restarted reading it because two days ago I had the thought "Derek finished the Book of Mormon in twelve days, so I am going to finish in 11" enter my mind.
I'm way too competitive obviously, but it is helping me achieve a lot of great things here in Riverhead. Why make goals if you're not going to reach them??
It's just too bad you can't take away others agency.. . Ha ah ha just kidding.. .
I'm glad it's September because it really needs to cool down! It is so hot here on Long Island today!
Last night we knocked into a Jehovah's Witness woman named (R.....) who wasn't actually interested in hearing what we had to say, just wanting to get her own ministering hours in for the day..
Basically they don't know a lot of true doctrine, just memorize parts of the bible to try and confuse you / make you see their point of view. But she told me she would read/pray about the restoration pamphlet because they don't even know where Jesus Christ went after he died. There is a reason He told Mary not to touch him. BECAUSE he had not yet ascended to his father AKA in something nice called..(heaven).
There is also a reason why he told the thief next to him, I will see you in Paradise my Brotha. Just kidding, not exactly, but if you want to read the TRUE account read your scriptures today, Luke 23:43
Anyway, Miguel's a Mexican man who doesn't want his fiancé, Leonora, who is from Uzbekistan, to become a Mormon and he just needs to follow Christ's advice, and GET THEE HENCE. (Matt 4:10)
Riverhood is still kickin! There are a lot of freaks here. But I'm sure there are some that are pure in heart somewhere.. So we are out looking.
Nothing too exciting this week.
Spiders are still in my house and last night I had a dream that my dad bought a salsa muffin at the airport and it was really funny/weird. I'm trying to convince Sister Snow to let me cut her hair, but she is probably smart to say no.
Anyway... We are headed to the city today to get some things done.
Aka, personal things. Aka, talk with the big man in charge.
Aka President Calderwood.
Poit is, I'm driving in the city and it's scary.
Peace out till next time hommies.
Love ya,
Sister Tenney
