Subject: Fastest Week of my entire life!
So this week was extremely fast. It literally felt like it was only two days long. But I also did have a great week on top of that. I think the greatest highlight we had this week was when I was in intercambios with my papito Elder Voelkel. I was in the middle of contacting a girl and right when I finish getting the direction she left and I turned to Elder Voelkel. He looks me straight in the eyes and said, bro tenemos una problema. I immediately knew what it was after working with him for 3 months so he asks if there are any members close so he can use the bathroom. I told him no, not realizing that our bishop literally lived just around the corner. She walked as fast as we could to Agro so he could use the bathroom but he didn't have money so I hurried and handed him some and right as he handed the guy money to use the bathroom he crapped his pants. He spends like ten minutes in the bathroom, comes out and says dude we have got a big problem we have to go back to the pension. I asked why and he said, do not tell anyone I'm serious. I said ya no problem bud what happened? Dude I crapped my pants..... At this moment I began crying from laughing so hard because we had to walk 2 miles back to the pension. As we were walking he kept asking me to check his pants to make sure they didn't stain but of course I'm a grown man and am not going to check out another kids butt. It was a really great experience. Also this week my comp and I were knocking doors and I told him we were going to go down this little path of dirt for just two seconds and then we would come back. Why I had that feeling i didn't know but as we got to the end and turned the corner there was a man just two feet in front of us and I said Hola como esta amigo. He turned around and said BAD and began to use his finger to cut his throat. I said is everything alright and he responded with no, I am going to kill myself. not realizing he said himself me and my comp almost ran because me comp thought he meant he was going to kill us. I had a feeling of what to say and as we talked he began to cry and he hugged me as he cried. He had just lost his wife and daughter in a car accident and lost his job. Had nothing left in his life is what he said. I talked to him about the scriptures and read him one of my favorite Scriptures and my comp gave him his book of Mormon and testified that it would help him and change his life. I told him we would look for a job for him and a place to live and he later got a house on the other side of the city and I got a call from the other missionaries over there saying some guy is at the church asking for Elder Richardson because he was invited to go to the Church and he wants to thank him. So i had a really heart warming experience with that.
