Literally.
I was sitting at the church waiting for somebody and then I felt something
splatter on the back of my head. It was bird poop. I think that's a good luck
sign in Cambodia though. #blessed
Elder Khiev and I are
livin' it up:
This week was crazy
cool. I decided on Monday that I was going to do at least one act of service
every day. Every morning I prayed for an opportunity to serve. And the Lord
delivered. We helped a lady peel her vegetables, we helped people move, I
taught 30 people how to speak English for an hour.
Wednesday was my
favorite though. We were riding home at night and about to cross over the
bridge when we spotted a stopped trailer full of charcoal. Apparently a bridge
boost had not been very successful and these guys were stuck. So Elder Khiev
jumps off his bike and I follow and we proceed to help push the whole thing all
the way up the bridge. It was super dope and what's even doper is that I got
pics.
I was pushing with one
hand and shooting with the other:
Smiles all the way:
This is probably my
favorite picture that I have ever taken:
When we got to the top
this guy turned around and thanked us super respectfully. It's blurry because I
was in the process of thanking him back. I love Cambodia.
I teach English
everyday now. Elder Khiev wants to learn but hasn't had a comp who was willing
to help him out yet. So this week I have been speaking only English. I don't
think he understands much but he will improve eventually. English is way more
important for his life than Khmae is for mine. Plus I learn from investigators
every day so I will still get better too.
Fishers of men:
Well that's all. I
gotta go take my comp to the dentist because his crown fell off and has to get
two root canals. He's been hurting for 2 months but has put it off because he
wants to focus on the work and save the mission money. What a good guy.
I love Cambodia and
serving and my comp and everything.
Love,
Elder Osborne
