- Elder Baird's #BLESSED Mission: WEEK 8 BURNABY: #blessed

Guess who's... back again...

Welcome back ya'll. Life's good, Elder B is still balling up here in the great beautiful BC. This week has been really awesome, or as some would say #blessed. I got to go on mega playdate with Elder Fankhouser. And we balled. It was a full two day playdate, so we had some fun.

Started Wedensday and got shipped off to Coco. We went and played Simpson bowling on the arcade. I won. Obviously. Went and taught a lesson to Hannah and Bobby about the priesthood/oath and covenant. Lowkey never learned how to teach it in Chinese, but as always the spirit carried. It was fire. Then went and played basketball. I got put on the team with all the chinese shu shu's and we balled. We actually cooked, it was pretty lit.

Thursday came along, did the ordinary missionary things. Had lots of fun, then got taken to Thai food by a member. And Holy. So blessed. Took me back home, so so good, and got mango sticky rice. Then we went to "English Class". At least that's where we were supposed to go. Instead we hung out with Li and Ao Yun Guang. Who is the cutest chinese kid ever. Hes three and knows how to skate and carries a hockey stick around with him wherever he goes. So I just played hockey with him for an hour. It was pretty lit.

Friday was litty. Had a youth ativity and played badmiton. Then had our weekly ping-pong / pickleball activity. I'm progressively becoming more and more Asian. Taught a lesson. Just livin the blessed life as a missionary.

Taught English class on Saturday, it's actually such a fun time. Its starting to become one of my fav things to do as a missionary. Cleaned the church. Got taken to McDonalds HQ and had lunch. Now it's HQ so the foods gotta be extra good right? yeah. no. It's just McDonalds, it was perfectly ight. Good milkshake though. Then we finished of the day with.... knocking. So fun. Went to a refferals home, not interested. So went to the neighbors home. A lady with a cane poised ready to whack opened the door. Kept telling us she was going to whack us, but told us to come back later sooooo... success?

Jesus day came around. Vincents back from Cali, so hung out with him at church. Taght come follow me. Balled out. Livin life. Yesterday we had interviews with P Vinny. Such a blessed dude. I'm lowkey so grateful for President and Sister Vincent. Such inspired and joyful people. That nigth we were doing comp study, and talked to two chinese people and both were interested. Miracle? I'd say so. So I decided to cook. Salmon, mushroom, garlic, onion, alfredo pasta. It was honestly the best thing I've cooked so far. I've got family and friend discounts so don't worry. Just hit me up.

Another blessed week. Hope ya'll are having just as much fun as I am. Cus life is blessed. The more I'm here the more I realize that. Even when things are going rough, take a moment and think blessed. See the miracles God puts in your life everyday, cus He does. Go down to the simple. Did you eat. Blessed. Did you sleep on a bed. Blessed. Did you take a shower. Blessed. Are you alive. Blessed. Does your Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ Love you. Blessed. (yes they love you, very very much)

Have a 'blessed' week
