The Thonburi Trio - 10/23/17

At the zoo, with some bear statues

Elder Xai, walking down a pretty neat street

Hello Everybody!

This week has been pretty short since the last email, so not too much has happened. We went to the zoo on Wednesday and that was pretty neat. The new elder in our district is Elder Xaiyawong! He's from Laos and he's way awesome. He speaks Laos, Thai, some Chinese, and is learning English, so we help him with that. He is a convert to the church and was baptized about 2 1/2 years ago. He has been on his mission for a little over a year. He's way good at teaching and is a beast.

Not too much has happened in the last little bit. We've continued teaching our investigators and they're good. Yesterday somebody wondered into the church after all the meetings were over. He apparently took lessons with missionaries about 14 years ago and wants to start learning again, so we started teaching him. His name is HN. He seems pretty solid. 

This week EA is planning on being baptized on the 29th, which is awesome! He's way into the gospel and loves asking questions. 

Today we are planning on going to a big flower market that's in honor of the king who died last year. It should be pretty cool. The funeral ceremony/cremation of the king is going to be this Thursday, and it's in Thonburi, so everybody will be super sad. It's probably gonna be a pretty tough day for the work.

I hope you are all having a great week! Keep being amazing!

I miss and love you all!

Elder Ridd <3
