I'm Glad I'm Not In Europe

Hello Family! So this week was a rollercoaster that's for sure! But it was good! This week we had some interesting experiences... so i'll start with...i hate the rain! hahaha So in Thailand when in rains the work basically stops...which stinks... but they are afraid of the rain here so if it starts to rain they will cancel their appointments, turn off their phones, and pretty much stay inside... so it rained for 2 days last week and that basically turned into us struggling to find work! We had appointments that we called and confirmed an hour before and then it came to the time they were suppose to show up and they cancelled! AH it was a little frustrating but it all worked out. Then this week we went and visited the boss of one of our members and he is Christian already, so we thought that would be kind of a good thing, b/c that doesnt happen very often here and thought oh yeah he'll have that good solid background... well how wrong we were! He is a very headstrong person and we couldn't even get a single word in like the whole time we were there... pretty sure he was trying to convert us to his religion! haha but it just made me think of how grateful i am that i am here in thailand and not in europe trying to teach tons of people with a christian background! Buddhist background is easier! (never thought i'd say that!) haha But it was a fun experience! This week we also had the chance to teach a guy from Nigera! We met him a few weeks ago and invited him to come to English class (even though he already speaks english) well sure enough he came! So usually we have Elders who serve in the International branch here who will teach people that aren't thai, so we gave those elders his number and they made an appointment, but then the elders weren't able to make it out the our church building, so we ended up teaching! Anyways overall this week was soo good! Hope everyone at home is doing good! love you! Love, S. Itri
