Oh and the quote is very easy... Secondhand Lions... duh
Tuesday
was hot hot hot! It was 106 all day and we were trying so hard to find
people to talk to but no one was listening. But we did talk to these two
guys, Jesse and James. James took a Book of Mormon and we had a good
talk about our testimonies. It was great. And it is amazing how much
better you feel after you teach someone a piece of the restored gospel.
It was good. After dinner we helped this lady move except when we got
there, all that was left to do was cleaning. So we did that. And then we
had a lesson with a recent convert from last transfer. Those lessons are nothing
too special. We are just going over the commandments with him.
Wednesday
was cool. We decided to fast that day for Amy. She was really
struggling with the Word of Wisdom when we taught it. So we wanted to
fast for her to find peace with it. Miracle #1: It was overcast all day
so we weren't dying of heat and didn't feel the need to drink so much
water. Miracle #2: I wasn't hungry at all and didn't even notice that I
was fasting (that never happens to me!). Miracle #3: we found out what
Amy's problem was with the Word of Wisdom by asking one question.
Miracle #4: we had a really awesome lesson with Sydney, another investigator,
and it went great! She really loves us coming to teach her and feels
like this is good and won't lead to anything wrong. It was a great
comfort to hear that. I have hope for her. Anyway, it was a good day. We
also had District Meeting this morning and I had to do a role play. It
was pretty good. I learned a lot from doing it, so I guess that's
something. And we had fun with Smores (the horse) today. He kept hitting me in the
butt, though, when we were brushing him. Not cool. But we also found a new
investigator named Angela. She was a referral from a different ward and
wanted a Book of Mormon, so we brought her one. Hopefully she comes to
find truth.
Thursday was a little rough. But we did find two
new investigators so that was awesome. And that was our goal. 3 new investigators for
the week. God is real. But we did service in the morning and I was in
heaven. I was just having a grand old time organizing clothes by size. I
could stay there all day. But my companion was as hungry as a kitten so
I had to stop in the middle of it all! Dah! But yeah the two investigators we
found are not too solid but you never know!
Friday was not
that eventful, it never really is. But we did have a lesson with the
Pain's. They are on baptism date for the 9th of July. They are progressing
nicely. They still struggle with Joseph Smith but really want to know
truth. I think they already do. But I have faith that all will work out
for them.
Saturday was a very long day. We talked to a couple
of people. We found an Asian named Chris and he took a Book of Mormon so
that was really cool. He seems pretty legit. I hope he actually reads
it.
Sunday's are always really busy of course. But it was a
really good day. A lot of what we talked about was service. I really
needed that too. It was a good reminder for me. It was a very
contemplative day for me. It was good. We had dinner with the Stohltons
and they are so funny. They just made me feel right at home. And the
food was dang good. Also people in Colorado think dessert is fruit with
whipped cream. I mean I love it and it satisfies but where is the
chocolate? Haha just kidding. They are awesome though!
But
that was my week. We proved God. And now we need to just keep working
hard. Thanks for the prayers! I hope you have a wonderful week! Ok I forgot to tell you that I finally beat Sister Larson in our race to
get to bed. But then we stopped cause we were flossing too fast and it
was hurting our gums :)
Love you
bunches!!
