Hey everyone! I'm in Omaha now! In a trio!!! The city is WILD!!!
We are teaching this guy named Jeffery and he is just obsessed with getting baptized and receiving all the ordinances he can. It's great but we are like okay slow down you can't just jump in like that. But he used to live in Vegas for a long time and he managed Caesars Palace and used to be a multimillionaire, (!!!???!?!) Then he lost everything (probably gambling on horseraces) and now he lives in Omaha in this tiny apartment. But he is like 70 and has a gold mine in Europe that he is trying to cash in so he can buy a mansion again or something (sometimes he gets random calls from London he has to answer in lessons) He also was good friends with Elvis and Cher and tells us lots of stories about Elvis cheating on his wife, but always assures us that "it's just the way it was" and how he was still a really great guy.
We also invited this other crazy drug dealer we are teaching named Nicholas to come to church and he didn't come, but he called us after and informed us that the reason he couldn't make it was because he didn't feel like stealing another car. At least he's kind of keeping the commandments. He also told us that for our next appointment he could meet us at the house where "Stutters shot Big Head" which is apparently the house we met him at, which is apparently the house of a drug lord, where a guy named Worm threw a machete next to us because "he can't have weapons around women it's just impolite" and where a couple people were murdered (RIP big head)
Omaha is crazy town. Missionaries truly have protecting Angels hahahahaha.
The squirrel obsession continues...
