Wow! This
week has been something else. Let me just tell you! I don't really have the
mental capacity right now to make sentences because I am so hungry! I am going
to hit the highlights with bullet points. I hope they will do for now....
- No
one signed up to feed us, so we called cute Sister Piper. She had an email sent
out so people called us thinking we were dying and wanted to feed us.
-Monday
FHE had a lesson with Stephen at Bishop Christensen's house. It went really
well. We talked about his concerns and how to recognize the Spirit.
-Monday
we also watched the King and I at Lucianes house from Lake Noko and ate
delicious Brazilian food!
-Tuesday
we went to stop by a lady named Dee Anderson. She is really nice. We took a
lady named Penny Carlson in our ward. Dee was sick, so Penny invited us back to her
house for a coke and a cookie. We shared a message and the Spirit was so strong.
-Tuesday
we had dinner with the Lanes that have twin baby girls. The mom works at an
OB-GYN office. It was so much fun to
talk about my future career as a labor and delivery nurse ( I think)
-Wednesday,
Roger told us he was moving. That was sad. He invited us to breakfast at Perkins
for a last hoorah, which was fun.
-We had
a “pass off” lesson with Hermana Hiatt y Warmbier for a guy named Carlo. We
shared the message on the Restoration.
His attitude in life currently is to eat, drink and be merry. It will be
interesting to see if he continues to meet with us. He has great potential
though!
"Evalette, Tim, Brittney, Carter & Me" |
-We
then had someone drop dinner off for us at the church. While we were eating in
the kitchen I saw Brittany! It was so cool to see her! She grabbed me and took
me into the gym where there was a Boy Scout thing where Tim was sitting with
their 2 kids!!!! Oh my gosh! It was so
cool to see them! The little boy's name is Carter, and the little girl is
Evalette! They both wanted me to hold them so bad! We just had to give lots of hugs!
It made me so happy!
-We had
Bishops meeting which was good.
-Thursday
we had dinner with the Adams, which was fun. It was awkward though because the
Elders were supposed to come, but never showed up.... We saw like 10 deer run
through their yard! I don't see deer very often here, so it was a real treat! They
were white tails too!
-After
that we saw Stephen and had a lesson on the spirit/ plan of happiness. It went
really well. He is really good at praying. We invited him to be baptized March
26. He wrote it down and squiggled around it…. woohoo! Can’t wait for him to
get his answer!"
"Letter from Brooklyn" |
-Friday
VEAP with the gals, which was great fun! Then I went to the office and worked.
Meanwhile the mailman came in and brought me a letter from Brooklyn! It made me
so happy! I was having kind of a rough day. I was fasting, so her letter really gave me
the boost I needed!
-That
night we had dinner at the Kusilek’s who have the 4 little boys. Two are baby twins
and are so fun to play with! I think they should marry the Lane girl twins!
They made yummy pizza. It was sort of like the pizza we made at the ‘hive. I am not sure how but they found out I am a Disney fan. I got to let my Disney
nerd come out of the closet for a little bit, so that was REALLY FUN!
-We
then spent some time making a map of our area and I did some studying to get
answers to some things I have had to pray about.
-SATURDAY
WAS SUMMER! It was so nice outside! It was like 50!
-We had
dinner with the Davis's. When we came out after, it was like 50 degrees still
with NO WIND! WOOHOO! The Davis family
is awesome. They have a rock solid family mission plan! #goals
"Steady didn't have a heat pack so she used, feet warmers, lol!! |
-We
then went and saw Marcy who is struggling right now. We felt impressed to share
some personal experiences, scriptures, songs and a video on being loved by God
and trusting Him.
-Sunday
it SNOWED big time! ARGH! It's okay though because it didn't stick :) We had
coordination meeting, followed by Ward Council.
We then got a text from Stephen saying he wasn't coming to church.
-It was
really weird because it is unlike him; Satan is working hard to pull him down. Pray
for him please. We then had a Stake meeting that was great because it was to
the point and short! We then went to Visit the Price family and had a lesson on
family mission plans.
-We had
dinner at the Whitney’s. I love the Whitney’s. They are the best people ever! I
am so grateful I have been able to work with her in the office this transfer! She
is so Christ like and loving! She is just wonderful!
-We
heart attacked Sister Binns, Sister Tatyana, Sister Nightingale, and Sister Morey
so that was great fun
-Today
we are going to pack, eat lunch first, and then go to the Stones for dinner.
The we are off to see the Pesante's afterwards for a lesson.
Love
you lots peeps, to the Moonisota and back!
