Week 9 in Jamaica 🇯🇲

Hey guys!
   So I have fixed my bike! No more walking around for Elder Christensen and I! We have had a lot of tire problems though so we have had to fight that struggle for a couple days! But its fixed now. I started to get blisters on my feet! But they are gone now.
    Alright so this week I got to meet the sisters that were in my mtc district and man was I excited to see them! We had a zone pday and it was a blast! We played minute to win it and we had lots of fun games! Got crammed into the back of a van on the way home like usual though... We met a lot of rasta men this week too! They all told us that their names were rasta fari.... They were so funny! then we ran into a guy whose name is james! We had a weird contact with him but it was great! We taught him how to pray, answered a few questions he had about his tattoos, the next life, all sorts of stuff! He was walking to work and we talked to him for almost an hour! He was so willing to meet with us and he excepted a book of mormon on contact! it was really amazing to see this man light up after answering a few questions! We met a few other people that were very interesting but nothing compared to james! for my personal studies i have been reading the Bible and it is SOOOO hard to follow everything in it right now... I am in Exodes right now and its getting pretty interesting but still hard to follow! I challenged everyone to read the Book of Mormon back home so i hope everyone is doing that! You all better email me saying that you have started to read from it! it will change your life! The branch here is slowly getting bigger! Even though we havent had any other baptisms yet we are activating a lot of Less actives! it is great to see the branch grow and become more united! the food is sooo good here im getting fat... i weighed 165lbs when i first enterd the mtc. now i weigh 180lbs... not good!!!! But i have heard that you only gain weigh in junction so its all good! Anyways, I love you all! I hope you are all having a happy new year and growing in your faith in Christ! If you arent growing you are losing it. 

Likle more ma youts!
Love, Elder Wilding
