June 2, 2014- We are Professional Movers!!

Bonjour ma famille et les amis!

This week was really crazy. So there is this guy who lives in the
same complex as us. He asked us if we could help him move out of his
apartment (this was at the beginning of the month). We said yes and
that is what we did this week! We took most of his furniture and
placed it in ours so that the mission could come and see what they
need. Our apartment was pretty packed with all this stuff and it was
very hard to maneuver around. There was like one walkway leading from
the entry to the kitchen :o I don't like stuff. Especially that MUCH!


Then on Wednesday, we were heading home for dinner and we wanted to
talk to this guy walking towards us. So I'm like " Alright, I got
this." I introduce us as missionaries and asked if I could give him a
card (he seemed to be in a rush) he just kept saying no and saying "I
gotta pee!", "don't hold me up, I'll pee my pants!" It was really
quite hysterical! And then while he was making this scene, he looked
at me and said " don't look at me like I'm crazy! I really gonna pee!
STOP LOOKING AT ME WITH THAT CRAZY LOOK!" Well what else do you want
me to do? Stare at you cross eyed? Geez! Hahaha it was very funny!


Saturday was another very busy moving day. We had 2 people that had
asked us to help them move, so we thought we could make both of them.
Well, we ended up going on another exchange with our roommates. Elder
Fuller (roommate ) and I went to an investigator in our area and spent
the whole day moving this guy and the others did the same thing. BUT I
got a guitar out of helping this person! It was a great day!


We have some bad news... Paula the recent convert, decided that she
doesn't want to get confirmed because of things that she doesn't like
about the church. She read some things on Google and that just added
on to her doubts. 


We are sad :( I am getting really frustrated with my
ankle. I can't walk without a limp, and pain searing all over and
around my ankle. Please keep me in your prayers... I will be talking
with both mission president and his wife Tuesday.

I love you all and I hope to here from y'all soon whether via email or
letters! :)


Love Elder JT Ekberg
Washington, D.C. Zone!
