My new apartment is on 61 Delancy Street, right next to the intersection of Delancy Street and Allen Street. We live on the 5th floor (did I mention that the entire apartment is about the size of our kitchen/dining/family area, and we have 4 Elders here?) I live with Elder Zander (South Jordan, UT, first name Jacob, companion.), And Elders Williams (Tyler, he goes home in 5 weeks, Zone Leader) and Cook (Xean, MTC companion, Zone Leader).
We have an investigator named Xxx Xxxx who has a baptismal date for a week from this Sunday. He's really cool, works in Rhode Island, and rides the bus back every Sunday for church. He quit smoking and drinking a few weeks ago.
In other news, we just helped a man try to find out where his friend was, which took us on a trip around the courts, eventually to a police station, where we found out that he was arrested yesterday for selling knockoff name brand phone cases. Having finished that service opportunity, we then proceeded to go help some other missionaries from Scarsdale buy fake Rolex watches for 30 bucks a block and a half away from where the other guy's friend got arrested. The irony of the situation was killing me.
We also taught a Recent Convert named Steven how to play piano.
In other news, we are teaching one of the doormen, he's really cool, and slowly getting rid of his Catholic views. We talked with him for about 2 hours about if angels hate humans or not. It was kind of an interesting conversation. The problem is he is a weekend worker, so he has to sit at the front desk during Sunday [services]. Hopefully we are able to get him in touch with the English missionaries once he quits. He's really cool.
We also got a new sister, Sister Ng, from Hong Kong. She speaks great Cantonese, decent English, and some Mandarin.
Love you all,
Your son/sibling in service,
Elder Christensen
