Bishop, Spencer

Well well well....Ya Bish is back...  It's been an awesome but interesting week.  #Main points# + went to the ER again  + got 2 baptisms  + went to the temple  So first off, I had to go to the ER again! This was an interesting experience. We were on exchanges with the Portland Elders. The exchange was going great until...Elder Peterson started feeling sick. He was pretty sick to his stomach and he couldn't poop. He reported that it had been three days prior to him coming up that he couldn't poop, so we thought maybe he's just mega constipated, so we went to get him laxatives, lol. We went to the chemist (pharmacy in Australia) to get some laxatives and looked at a certain box and it said it works within 20 minutes. Elder Peterson was like, "The sooner the better!" So we drove back to the flat. I was trying to help a brother out, so I started to read the instructions on the box and I realized that these are not pills...you don't put them in water...you put ...

Hello Everyone, This week got a little better with the sprained ankle. I was able to limp around a bit by the end of the week!  A lot of the week was super boring, just me resting my leg and waiting for it to get over its self.  We did have a cool miracle happen this week with this guy named Mark. We got the refferal a couple weeks ago from Mark so we set up an appointment. He then decided he didn't want to meet anymore so it was like, oh shucks! I guess he really wasn't interested. We felt prompted on Saturday to go visit him in person. We met and talked and he said he was actually thinking about coming to church on Sunday and he said that we because we came over to see him, it put him over the edge so he said he was gonna come! Thank you Holy Ghost! We saw him at church! He actually came. He actually really loves it and loved the members. We then invited him to a baptism later that day and he came to the baptism. We also invited him to the devotional after the baptism and he...

Holy cow! It's been too long! I'm gonna get straight into it. So transfers... I got transfered out of Gulfview Heights! It was sad leaving all of the members and a couple of people we were teaching, but it was time to leave the area. I had been there 7.5 months and it was enough  There was something cool that happend on my last day in Gulfview heights, a cool little miracle. We set up an appointment Paul. I really wanted to say goodbye to him before I left because I had been working with him for so long. We had become really good friends. We had expected to just say goodbye and chat for a bit, but I felt that we should teach him when we got there. I decided to teach him the third lesson. The gosple of Jesus Christ and we talked about Baptism. I rebrought it up because he had mentioned that baptism is something he wanted to do. He had told me while he was at church, he would think about baptism. He said he felt guilty at church because he wasn't baptized yet.  I asked him if...
