Breezin



This week was the best week of my whole entire mission! Woot Woot! My new companion Elder Alldredge came. He is like a long lost homie I never had. He is so sweet. He played basketball for Mt. View and they hit the game winner to beat Lonepeak in the state tourney a few years ago. Anyway he lives by Farmington.

So this week was full of stressful things but it made it fun. The Sisters got in a wreck and hit the church wall and gate lol. I spent all day doing car reports and filling out accident papers for the church. I learned a lot about cars and accidents! Woot!

Wednesday I drove the Island all day going to and from the airport picking up all the new Elders and things. Lots of driving. Woot

Thursday was sweet too we had a lot of fun with the members eating at their houses and having some great spiritual thoughts.  Everything is boss.





Saturday we went to go and make sure the mom and family were ready for baptism. But Wendy (the mom) was no where to be found. Kelly-ann said she went to by the country side so.... So we were like crap. Well Kelly-ann still came and got baptized so that was sweet. So we got a splash. We went by their house that night and they were there. Wendy felt bad because she is SUPER shy. She said she is scared of drowning in the water. So we explained a little further about baptism and how we actually baptize in the sea. After seeing her daughters photos of the baptism she was like okay next week for sure.









So this Saturday we will baptize her. Oh and also Danielle! She is super cool and she is a mom that lives in a next part of my sector. She is so excited for Saturday. So on Saturday we will baptize two people! Woot Woot. Stay wet!!

Well things are just super great. We are seeing lots of success. And the zone is catching on to this whole stay wet vibe. The zone has set  a lot of baptismal dates this week so that is good.

This week we  also went and visited some less actives. We met one named Sister Cummings she is so funny. She is this older black lady who doesn't give a hoot about what she says and is super straight forward. I have never laughed so hard in  my life!! She insisted on making us some cream of wheat so we had some nice cream of wheat.

I am learning more about speaking in Grenadian terms like.
"Whyu frettin me so"- you are annoying me
"whapn dottish"- I think you are dumb
"whascene" - what is the scene.. or like where are you at.

Well I love Grenada and this mission. Buyahh the church is true the book is blue.


stay breezing and Irie.

Love, Elder Dixon
