New Area!! - February 8, 2015



This week was awesome! But to be honest I was a little sad because I left my area, and I know that the President always sends down zone leaders to train or banysit at the end of their missions (at least my new pres), but I honestly wanted one more transfer in Bosque. but oh well. My comp is a little rebellious and dead, and he just killed this area. They haven't had a baptism in 6 monthes. But the cool thing is that he is homies with like everyone (because he just loves to hang out with people) and so with his friends we sat down and taught them, and put 5 dates for baptism and one's a family of 4!! So I'm super pumped. I can see that I was meant to get sent here. God has a reason for everything. And this ward is super cool. I have realized that we just have to trust in God and do what he wants because he knows more then us. Keep doing your best and remember do Gods will and not your own.


FUN STORY
Finally got in a fight woot woot. SO some vato or some ah.. sorry can't think of a word to call a bad guy in English haha, but anyways this bad guy like 6 7 was like drunk high and out of it yelling at his wife in the middle of the street. We finally had a chance to show this guy who's boss (no, I'm just kidding haha), but we couldn't just stand there as he started to beat his wife. So we walked up to him to tell him back off. But then the guy whipped out a knife or scissors or something sharp and starts walking towards us. Then he started to rip off his clothes and cut them in the middle of the street yelling in some Indian language. To be honest I thought he was going to attack us haha and then when we saw the girl start running away we realized we did our job, and started to try to walk away from the guy slowly hahaha, but then he freaked out and started chasing his wife! and then half way through he like forgot what he was doing and walked inside a bar on the way..
We actually contacted the girl and made an appointment with her!!

and then I went home and changed my pants.. hahaha
sorry haha maybe that part I should not of mentioned...

Love you guys have a great week
Love Elder Davenport

  1. You are amazing!!!! Hey guess what? We received our mission call. We enter the MTC April 27. We are called to serve in Public Affairs in Los Angeles! Sounds exciting. We are going through the training they have you go do before you enter the MTC and are loving it. The District videos are so what you are doing there. Thank you so much for your example and testimony. What an example you are to all of us!!! Your family will always be able to read about your experiences and will be inspired by them. Have a blessed week and know you are always in our prayers. Love and hugs, Grandmom and Granddad
