The One With the Pancake Eating Contest 2/5/18

Hey everyone!!

This week we went on exchanges with the zone leaders in south Lodi- it was pretty sweet. I went with Elder Smith (one of the mission legends). We went tracting for most the day and almost nobody answered, haha the people that did answer were all very religious.

We did knock on one door and the man was obviously not in a good mood. We started to share our unique message about how Christ's original church was gone but is now here on the Earth. With each word we spoke the man became more and more angry as he started to tap his finger on a silver sign that said "No Sol-" (we couldn't read the rest because his hand was in the way). Elder Smith said "Oh, I'm sorry if we give off the appearance of soliciting, but we are just sharing a message about Jesus Christ," and the man cut him off and shouted and informed us that we were illegally soliciting and that we had to get off his porch that moment. We feel that he may be more ready to receive the gospel in a few weeks. Personally I have always had a hard time reading things on people's porches, and do not technically solicit but that man did not seem happy to see us.

Hope you all have a great week!! Love you all!
