Palatka is literally the best place ever! We have the most crazy conversations with people in the government housing neighborhoods! Most of the people we talk to are either really drunk or high and talk to us about how they pray to the sun and that there are giants in the center of the earth. One guy told us that he didn't need to read the Book of Mormon because he already knows what it says because it's a religious book. Then he said that we didn't believe in vaccines because we believe in Jesus Christ. It was pretty funny.
Saturday night we had 4 people that said they were coming to church so we were super excited! Then in the morning we called them again and two of them said that they couldn't make it so we still had two coming. Then about halfway through sacrament meeting we texted the two people who were going to come and one of them said they couldn't make and the other one said they would be late. They never showed up but that's ok they will hopefully come next week.
Our most progressing investigator right now is Linda. She had three of her son's baptized a few years ago but she wasn't baptized. She wants to read the Book of Mormon and go to church so we will see where that goes. We basically started from scratch here because the Elders before us were super lazy and didn't do anything and all of the investigators hadn't been taught in like 6 months. We are finding a lot of people though and are going to teach them this week so hopefully we can get more progressing investigators.
I love you all! Keep on keepin on!
Love,
Elder Plumb
