Welcome to another weekly email.
Thinking of subjects is super hard so if you could email me a list of catchy suggestions that would be peachy :)
This week was really good though! I think we knocked on approx. 1000 doors.
We
got to teach our youngest investigator this week! She's 10 and the
smartest kid ever. Her answers are so eloquent it's precious. We made
her the little box (see pictures) and filled it with candy and we gave
her a Book of Mormon, The Restoration & Plan of Salvation pamphlets
and an invite to the David Archuleta devotional! Woohoo! Did I mention
that last week? We are seriously probably the most spoiled mission it's
great. Anyways! Our lesson was so fun and Isabell loved the box. We're
trying to find her some friends to take
her to primary and activities.
She's a little shy but we know some fun primary girls who really want to
meet her. It's so exciting teaching kids because their hearts are so
pure and open. She told us that she knows this is something she needs to
come to know for herself and she's going to read the Book of Mormon
with her grandma this summer. Makes my heart melt :)
We
had exchanges this week! (Thanks for the backpack tip Maryanne) It was
so much fun- I got to work with Sister Conder. They have a few old
ladies they visit every week &
they were amazing and so hilarious.
One of them plays the same song every time they visit and they just sit
for a while and sing together it's pretty fantastic. We also tried a new
tracting approach and we showed a 1 min video before we talked about
anything & it worked miracles. The first guy we saw we showed the
video and before we could really even say anything he was like- Okay
I'll just come to church! It was nuts! Then we showed it to a few more
people and one person accepted a Book of Mormon and said we could come
back and teach her. Those mormon messages are inspired I tell you what.
It was good times.
One
of my favorite tracting experiences this week was meeting this 85 yr
old guy named Bill- He was so trendy lol he had on like a little hipster
hat and aviators and his t-shirt said old guys rule! He was probably
the coolest 85 year old I've ever seen. He talked to us for a long time
and said we were welcome to come back and talk to him more. So excited.
Also
tracting (we did so much tracting this week) we met a guy named Nick
who has two kiddos. He's a Mormon already- He just doesn't realize it
yet haha! He reads the bible every single day and can basically quote
the whole thing & he believes all the same things we do. He also
said we could come back and talk to him again! It was a fun week.
We got taken out to restaurants 3 times this week! Monday we had Mexican food with a sweet view of the lake, Tuesday we had sushi, and Thursday
we had claim jumper! So spoiled! It's crazy. The members here have
basically adopted us I don't know what they're going to do when we
leave. They haven't had sisters in a long time so they're just really
happy to have us & so willing to help. We love them.
Palannga ko kamo!! Be good! Be nice!
Sister Z
Oh the crazy leaf bug was like 1in from Sister Western's face when she saw it- they're pretty good at hide n seek !
