Thursday, April 28: Zone Conference in Hoptown. Sister Christensen had a musical number. At the end of zone conference, they open it to a testimony meeting. Hudson says the greenies (those in the first or second transfer) always share their feelings. Mostly they talk about how different the mission is then what they expected. However, one elder professed his man crush for his ZL Elder Cranney. He says he always feel better after talking to him. Another compared the relief of going to the bathroom to feeling the spirit. President and Sister Weaver were appalled! All Elders from the three zones had a separate meeting.
Hudson and Elder Walrath have become the page admins and are getting around 300 hundred posts instead of the usual 30. Feeling good about all the reach they are having.
Judy: Older lady who has had cancer and is suffering from Bell's Palsy on the right side of her face. Hudson found her on Facebook and she loves coming to church. She walks like a bowling ball going down the lane, hitting the bumpers side to side. She almost fell walking out of the church, but was caught by Sister Stoor.
Samantha: Single mom with 1 year old daughter Stephanie that Hudson says is very distracting to the lessons as she is so cute to watch. She came to church and climbed on every ones lap then got down. Hudson has started bringing a member to play with Stephanie so Samantha can focus. She is on date for June 5!
Sheila: Widowed a few years ago. Hudson feels the veil is thin given the knowledge she shares. She in on date for June 19. She is taking the baptism covenants very serious and wants to make the right commitment.
Jacob: Teaching a family in Woodburn. Dad named AJ who went to school with and used to work for Jacob. Jacob McFadden is the man Hudson came across on Facebook who believes he is God? He invited Hudson to join his angel army. Hudson proceeded to watch a live video of him branding himself with a cross. AJ says he has a multi million dollar pole barn business and that he was normal until his wife cheated on him. He then caught an eel in Drake's Creek which had a chemical spill (a contaminated pond) and ate it. Not sure which caused the mental problem. Turns out he is a former that the missionaries have taught before. He brought notes to his previous lessons about how he is the creator of the Universe. Of course the Elder's invite him to church. He then asks if there are any hot women at church? He doesn't show up after the first invitation, but he does the next week. He shows up to fast and testimony meeting. The Elders warn President Alley of some of the things he might say if he gets up. President Alley walks over to the wall and starts hitting his head against it. He shows up during the sacrament while Hudson is passing. Then he is gone? At first Hudson thinks he is hallucinating. Elder Reese and Walrath saw him too, good. The Elders search the church, concerned about what he is doing wandering around the church. They finally find him in the bathroom. Hudson says he was very quiet and didn't make any ruckus. He proceeds to send Hudson 24 messages on messenger. Some are a whole page long. He tells Hudson some people get scared when he shares his beliefs, that was why he was so quiet. He asks Hudson if he is the Prophet Nelson that they are talking about in church. Hudson politely tells him no. He tells Hudson if he pushes to get a big enough following, he could be. WHOA
