This week was pretty fun!! but i forgot to take some pictures so sorry.. haha
so monday all of your appointments canceled , it was so weird. we also could find any members to come with us to Johns so we had to cancel on him. it was just weird. we were driving and we thought wed go see Grandma Carr. that ended up being the place where we needed to be. It was the anniversary of her sisters death and she was struggling. we showed the new easter initiative and talked about Christ and how he brings peace into our lives. Cause i does, in so many ways. i bought a polaroid aswell! so thats awesome!
tuesday we called all the churches and pastors in Belle to invite their congregations the a fireside us missionaries were putting on. we made apointements with alot of them too! so thats awesome! we had exchanges so the STLs came up from Rapid! SIster Brought stayed with Sister D'vaz and i, and sister weeks went to Rapid with Sister Mcdonald. Sister Brough is the best! We went and talked to a pastor of the Christian Life Center(church), we showed him the new easter video , and the spirit was so strong. we asked alot of questions about our church and we ended up teaching him the restoration! so thats awesome!
Wednesday we talked with the Methodist pastor, we was alittle rude but none the less willing to listen. we went to the nursing home and showed Sister Owen the new easter video. Shes a cute old lady! we finally went and saw John, he got mad at us cause we didnt come monday, we tried teaching but he kept changing the subject, we just literally bore our testimonies and basically dropped him. if he wants to learn more he can call us. we went and saw Sister Deams, another cute old lady, the one who paints amazingly! She ended coming with us to Domingos lesson but he wasnt there, I had a feeling we should go stop by and see Jack. we went and he actually was just leaving to go to the hospital. he just had a stroke and fell and got beat up real bad. we said a prayer with him/ we havent heard anything more, but hopefully hes good!
we had a phone lesson with Byron since hes M.I.A. He wanted to know more about Mormon and gay stuff. it was just weird. we went tracting and found a potential. She used to go to releif society activities with her friend a long time ago. so golden?? i dont know.
Thursday we had to exchange back:( we did family history for an hour. i got to find some names. so if i get to go to the temple sometime ill do their work! we had lunch at a members. it was like a sunday roast! #sofull we weekly planned a bit. We went to the United Church of Christ! Now, this pastor was so nice and willing to listen and open. we talked about both of our beliefs and after he said a pray and "blessed" us. so theres that. we went and walked around and shoes a few members the new video. we ended up running into Devon, a flirty 25 yo. hahah and thats the first time i met him. We showed him the video.. the spirit is there, he just doesnt want to change. so thats difficult.
friday we had district meeting and lunch! i made Catalina chicken for them and it was so good! District meeting was so good to! we talked about the blessing that are waiting for us as we do all that we can to find people! and taking that time to find them. we finished weekly planning and went out tracting! we showed the new video to everyone who was willing to listen! we had dinner with the Langfitts. Byron was supposed to come, for his new member lessons but he didnt show up and wouldnt answer anyones texts or calls. this is the time we went hunting for the Open Bible Pastor. the ladies in the church said he lived in the blue house next door, but lo and behold ther was 5 blue houses! do you see our predicament? haha we literally chased him down!
saturday we ended up cleaning the church by ourselves. #1hour
we went and tried alot of potentials. we hunted some more:) we went and stopped by Leslie and theresas. theyre less active. the spirit was just not there. it was so difficult. but we prevailed.
sunday was fast sunday! we found out some things thats going on with Byron.. so much drama with him. oh my. we went out tracting and inviting people to our fireside. we got a call from a Robert, asking about the fireside, cause we put flyers up. it was so cool. so we had 1 non member come to the fireside! we ended up giving him a tour of the church, taught him the restoration! it was a miracle! after the fireside brother Krum taught us how to take selfies and Robert asked is sister weeks could play the piano as he singed. The song he chose i need thee every hour. all of us missionaries(7) and 2 ward members joined and the spirit came so strong. he started crying and after it was done we said he was compelled to pray. he did and it was so sweet and tender. such a great experience. Rober is a OLD war vet and has to carry an oxygen thing.. we took a selfie with him too!
this week was so full of miracles! i love being out serving and cant wait to learn more and grow! i know that Christ is risen! i know that he lives! he loves us!
i love you all !
