Roleplay with President Hutchings: 3/14/2011

The big answer of the week is... No I don't have an emergency backpack haha. I should probably get on that. (My mother's cousin's son is serving in Japan in the exact area where the earthquake/tsunami hit.) 

So this past week was pretty weird. We had leadership training in Murray, Kentucky on Thursday. It was awesome because usually the Zone Leaders, District Leaders, and trainers are all together. But this time it was just the Hopkinsville Zone, and the Paducah Zone... AND the Zone Leaders went with the Assistants all day for training. So it was 3 District Leaders and 2 trainers in our meeting, from 9-am - 4pm. It was like one-on-one with President and Sister Hutchings. Pretty gnarly. 

The whole training was on our purpose, the role of the Holy Ghost, and teaching people not lessons. It was pretty neat, and pretty scary. We had to role play with President Hutchings, and I was last and he said he was going to role play as one of his best friends back home and I had to commit him to baptism and he was going to say no and I had to overcome the concern. After he said that I did one of the best jobs ever, pretty scary haha. 

I'm pretty bummed out, the stake up here is having the annual basketball tourney. Stinks that we can't play in it haha.

So on Saturday, Ron was supposed to get baptized, and we we over Saturday morning and asked him how he was feeling. (Background, that past week, every day he brought up a new concern, so we would run over there and overcome it haha) So he said that he needed more time, and we aggreed before we saw him that if he had another concern we were just gunna let him be. So we did. He recommitted himself to April 2. General Conference weekend, neat. haha. But that was a bummer. 

I am tots jelli (totally jealous) that all yall are going to a Laker game! garsh! haha, They will win for sure because, I mean... cmon' its the Lakers. Everyone in Hopkinsville LOVES the Wildcats-- the UK basketball team. haha its nuts. No one will answer the door when the game is on, its pretty funny. 

That is crazy that Adam Wiggat (Figgat--family friend that lives in Carlsbad, CA and a couple years older than Spencer) is getting married, and that Kyle (Kyle Hill--another friend) is gunna be bye bye soon, and Daniel (Daniel Aranada--another friend) is back haha. crazy. 

So mom... we don't have a dinner tonight, you think you could order us some pizza on pizzahut.com? You can pay for it at home and they deliver it to us. MADDNESS! It's only a suggestion, but deep dish pepperoni is pretty tasty. Just saying :D haha. (Mom sent them two pizzas, soda and breadsticks:) Well I love yall! Have a good week in the warm cali weather. Have fun at the Laker game too... grr. haha. Peace out girl scouts.

Elder Cawley.
