Dear everyone,
I have terrible news. I chipped my tooth this week! It was my
front top left tooth! It is one I think I have chipped before in my life. I
pretty much had a mental breakdown when it happened because losing a tooth is
pretty much my worst fear. So I was eating a piece of soft candy and was biting
it with my front teeth. Anyway I bit right through and my top and bottom teeth
didn't hit right and just chipped the tooth. The moment it happened I knew and
was even more sure when I chewed a piece of hard something...I accidentally
swallowed it because I panicked. I look somewhat like a hill-billy now.
It didn't end up staying a bad day because we ended up
meeting a guy that has English and gospel interest. It seems like he has some
gospel interest and wants to meet so maybe this week we will get to meet him!
We got to watch General Conference this past weekend. It was
really good, a lot of testifying about Christ. The spirit was strong the whole
time. During Priesthood session President Eyring gave a talk similar to last year’s
talk he gave. He shared some of the same stories so I found it very
interesting.
Between conference sessions on Saturday we went on a
'hike/picnic' with our branch. Elder Peck and I realized how old the people in
our branch really are.
So this week we were walking and just suddenly we started
talking with this dad that was holding a kid. We kind of stopped stared and I
randomly said 'are you a family?' and we started to talk and we talked about
the Book of Mormon and how it can help strengthen families. He accepted a copy
and gave us his number, they looked pretty interested. It was a really good
experience because we felt that we were guided to them. It was kind of
disappointing when we called them and said that he wasn't interested
necessarily right now. He said he was interested in Buddhism and first he had
to finish a Buddhist book that was bigger than the Book of Mormon. He said once
he finishes that he will read the Book of Mormon. He says he will get to that
in April...Super frustrating! Maybe his wife will read it or something and then
they will want to meet someday sooner or maybe when he will read it he will be
touched by the Spirit.
God is a God of miracles but everyone has their agency and I
accept that!
Have a great week!
Love,
Elder Frampton
