Excitable Asian Christian‏

Dear Family,

Pictures: there are a couple of our p-day activities, laundry, and the car wash, the last picture is of another spider. Oklahoma has a ton of bugs...I think it has more sects of spiders than it does churches...maybe that's an exageration, there's a lot of churches.;)The only thing that is a bigger deal than church here, is football and boy does the town close down when OU plays some ball and it will pick up this weekend when they have their first home game...too bad BYU knocked them down a bit down in Texas...ha! On Sunday I figured something failed with the Sooners by how untalkative everyone was. When the Sooners win we don't hear anything, but OU football and the big heads that come with game, but when they lose don't you bring it up. Football is insaine here. OU football is truely the Golden Calf for Oklahoma, especially here in Norman.Back to missionary life...Things are looking good for Kaleb's baptism this weekend. We just need to print out some programs, have the interview, and fill the font. Hopefully OU's game is later in the afternoon, so it doesn't interupt the baptism...I guess during this season I can't escape football in this missionary work.The week was good. Yesterday we talked to this hilarious Korean woman. We were parking our bikes to knock on some doors and this woman pops out of her house across the street and here is our conversation; "Hey! Are you the police?" "no. We're missionaries!" "Oh, really, what church? Penticostol, Presbeterian?" "No. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints." "Oh, Jesus Christ...Christians? I love Christians! I'm Christian! I need to take your picture! I get my camera. Oh, I love Christians!" hahaha! We talked with her and her husband for a while and gave them a Book of Mormon, but they didn't want to learn more. There are lots of great people who love Christ, but are just so satisfied with their church they don't feel the need to learn more. We try to be clear about what they are missing and the cause of all that through The Great Apostacy, but they're okay with their church. Find them that will receive you, I guess. Anyway, we'll find some others who do want more.Love Ya!-Elder Osness
