Family,
Okay, so this week was good but we didn’t
bring any investigators to church so that was a big setback.
The story of the week. An old
lady was sitting behind us in sacrament meeting when her phone rang. She
freaked out and just pushed every button to try and turn it off. She had no
idea how to use her brand new touch screen phone that her daughter bought her.
So, as she frantically pushed all the buttons, she activated the MP3 part
of her phone. Since it was her daughter’s old phone, it began to play
some hard core rap song. (This is all happening during the ordinance of
the sacrament.) So she doesn’t know how to stop the music, or turn the
phone off, so everyone looks back to see who is playing that kind of music in
sacrament. So I take the phone from her and sneak out the back door
really quickly- because we were almost all the way in the back. I finally
turned the phone off after we realized we had to slide it open to activate all
the buttons. So we went back into the meeting and everything was normal.
When church ended, almost all the members came up to us to tell us how
bad of an example we are and how they couldn’t believe that 1. our phone went
off in sacrament… and 2. that we had that kind of music on our phone. The
only thing anyone saw was me leave with the phone so they all expected that it
was our phone. It was great. Even the bishop and the counselors thought
it was us. But after we explained the story to everyone, we all had a
good laugh. But still pretty crazy. Anyway, I am going to work on
these college application essay topics now.
Love,
Elder McRae
