Jaren's Mission to Bangkok, Thailand

Starting with last P-day we went exploring. Took way cool pictures and by the way that super dope shirt I am wearing is my mother's new company Mago. Which is a sweet merchandise store. Ask her about it. We were so sweaty. I'm always sweaty now. I drink lots of water. We served อุ๊ด again this week building this super rickety fence with rotted wood and rusty sheet metal. One of the best parts of my week.  her and her mother sister นวย is this old grandma who gives us tons of cookies and then gets mad when we can't eat any more. She is one of my favorite people. Reminds me of my grandma. They are daters for the fourth of February. Our other dater is Mickey (มิกกี) who has a smoking issue but quit last Wednesday and hasn't smoked since. He's a good guy!  Friday I made a decision. I told myself that I was going to be less prideful. I am going to choose not to get bitter when someone constantly makes fun of Thai or laughs at me and says that I am still new in the missio...

  Hello! How are you! I'm fine, and you!? The three things that every Thai person knows how to say in English. And you have to say it with the same tones or they don't understand. Haha Well this week we visited LA's and we had a ton of fun Inviting here. Our area is like bigger than we can bike in a day so we find new crazy things places and people everyday, I am in heaven. I love exploring and talking to these crazy people who are often super drunk or they are just crazy. Almost gets annoying how many people are addicted to Alcohol here. Its almost a daily routine seeing these people. I have never biked more in my entire life before this point I think we bike about ten miles plus a day. Super great but i'm tired all the time. We actually have been looking at houses to buy. We have been teaching ud and noi who are progressing well. And we have been teaching our other dater Mickey. He is the biggest baller. He is so faithful and I admire him for that. He loves prayer and...

  This week was a little shorter because we had transfer p-day last week on Wednesday and today is Monday so yeah. Last week we planned on Thursday for the week and went way hard! Visited a ton of LA's this week we visit sister Sawimon a lot she says she doesn't have a ton of time. But she is really nice this last transfer has been really good with LA work here we had like three LA returns one of them being a Malckezideck priesthood holder. Then we had Book of Mormon Class. Read a chapter and discussed it. Friday was good. Those Two daters we found on Tuesday are so good. One of them we went and had a lesson with her. Her name is yim which means smile. Haha we gave her off to the sisters. I took a picture after. Shes really cool I hope everything goes well with her learning. Also the other dater that we found that day is super good. Turns out he has had a smoking addiction for 50 years. I was able to testify about Paa Thoi who was so addicted to alchohol that we was suicidal. H...

Hey, the weekly recap this week is pretty good! Was transfers but not as stressful as usual because me and elder Sukyong were pretty sure we were staying here. So that what happened! Yeah! Pretty pumped to get to know the members here better, They are very cool. We play sports with them in the mornings and stuff. Its a way good time. This week we have been teaching moo a lot. He loves every time we come and hes the best guy. We have been teaching a bunch of people way out in the boonies, like rice field/swamp areas so there are a bunch of people like Thi and her daughter Ti who is disabled the older one is like eighty and the younger one is like thirty. She is really interested in the plan of salvation and praying. On Tuesday it was Mcdonalds birthday and he didn't tell anyone so we didn't do anything for it. Oh yeah My birthday was on the 6th... I'm 19... weird. But yeah boi also It was my six month mark on the fifth. That's also weird. I like the saying that you are a...

  Last P-day was really great. It was Christmas so it was pretty special. Also the fact that we went to watch one of the most amazing sunrises that I have seen. That was way fun. After that classic was we taught English class and that was the first lesson that me and Elder Sukyong had with our new investigator who was a referral. His name is Mickey. Hes a was chill guy and we have taught him three times since then. Hes about our age. His dad is in a coma and we have gone to see his dad twice. We taught Him the restoration on Friday. He had been really praying and he is definitely actually looking for truth. That lesson was fantastic it was on his front porch so it was really quiet and I knew he felt the Holy Ghost. He is progressing really well and came to church this Sunday. Very excited about him.  Saturday was kind of a hard day for me. I got in a bike accident the day before so I was sore and we had to bike everywhere. I was tired, I kind of got frustrated, Everything kind...
