Last Tuesday we had a zone training and we learned about
meeting our investigators needs and asking inspired questions! It was really
good and I learned a lot! Then a member took us to Chipotle for dinner! I loved
it! I could finally have something with meat! Then we went street contacting
and then was able to have a fantastic member present lesson! It was the best
member present lesson we have ever had and I am so happy for the willingness of
those members who will come with us! We really need it and appreciate it!
Wednesday was perfect! It was about 73degress and we had a
lot of lessons taught! The weather being warm defiantly makes me want to work
harder and it makes me happy! I am glad that we are in warmer weather! At one
of the lessons we went to she forgot we were coming so her friend was over and
he was really drunk! It was really weird because he introduced himself to me
like 10 times and then kept asking me what was wrong and he kept pointing to
his whisky bottle, like "this is how much I have had to drink today!"
Then he kept calling my companion and I baby girl and hugged us (which we felt
really awkward about it because we aren't allowed to hug) and was tripping and
falling all over her house so we just followed up with her and left, she told
us she wasn't reading because she has been really busy but she has been praying
about her baptism date a lot to see if it's what she is supposed to do. She
doesn't want to come to church yet but you have to, to be baptized and so we
have a relief society activity called For the Love of Chocolate...and you can
probably imagine why I want to go, but we can't go unless we have an
investigator going, so we are going to invite her to that and it's doing
something for me and her! I get the chocolate and she gets to know the ward,
feels welcome and gets chocolate! So it's a win win!
Thursday everyone canceled on us even dinner so we just did
street contacting and we had a list from the church to go contact so we did
that all day. The highlight of that day was the letter I got from Baylee! It
was awesome! Thank you!
Friday we were going to ride bikes because it was really
nice out and our appointment was about 4 miles away round trip, but my
companion wasn't even trying to ride the bike and she was having a hard time
with it so we were about an hour late to our appointment! So I was a little mad
about wasting all that time when we could have drove so I was practicing a lot
of patience! Then we went to our dinner appointment (we go to the same people
every Friday night...not complaining!) we had Filipino food which this meal I
wasn't that big of a fan of, but I still ate it! Then we went to our next
appointment and we knew they would have ice cream there but I didn't want any
and my companion was the one who told them to get ice cream so we playfully
argued about who was supposed to eat the ice cream and that neither of us
wanted it, we both just ended up eating the ice cream!
Saturday we tried riding bikes again and my companion
actually tried this time, so we got to our appointment on time and it was
really nice out so I was in a really good mood and then we did some service and
was able to teach on the priesthood! Then our dinner appointment made us chili
and it was really spicy! I loved it! Usually no one makes things spicy for
people but they did and it was awesome!!! Then we went home and got the call
from our district leader about transfers. Everyone in our district is staying
except one sister, because she is going home, so we will be getting a new
sister and that's the only change. Crazy!
Sunday we had our less active we talked to about priesthood
come to church! I was so happy!!! He always says he will come but never does,
so when we saw him we were so excited that he finally came! My companion said
he hasn't been since shes been in this ward and that was 9 months, so we were
pretty excited to see him there!
Also I am learning different languages! I can say
"Hello, how are you? Good, thanks! Bye! Goodnight!" in Armenian,
Tongan, Spanish, and Tagalog! It's really fun, but I know why I was called to
serve English speaking now! :)
