Hello everyone!
This week was another adventure in downtown Seattle. The people here are starting to like us. Seattle is divided up into different sections. One of the sections is called bell town. It is kind of ghetto. Every time we walk through bell town, we feel like movie stars or something. People yell "hey elders" all the time. Some even come up to us and give us hand shakes and stuff. It's good to know that the hobos and the thugs have our back.
Buses are crazy here. The other day, there was a man that decided to start smoking weed right next to my companion. The whole back of the bus started to fill with weed smoke. They guy pretty much passed out and was completely wasted. We got off that bus light headed with red eyes... bad look for missionaries.
Our investigator Justin is doing well. We pretty much visit him every day. His Mom wanted to watch the women's session of conference, so we watched a few talks with him and is mom. Good stuff. Even though the talks were focused towards women, I was still able to relate some things to missionary work and other things. The gospel is still true.
We decided to text everyone in the phone. We ended up getting 5 set lessons with random people. One has already met with us and he is a new investigator. Another is very openly gay, but still likes us. He really isn't willing to commit to anything so he is a potential at this point.
Thanks so much for all the birthday wishes! It's going to be weird not to be a teen any more! Anyway, I hope you all have a great week!
Love,
Elder Moulton
