Last week on Monday was so much fun! We went to downtown Spokane with all of our district. It was a lot of fun. We went to the mall and went to all the tourist shops and I bough huckleberry brownie mix.
I bought a couple of other touristy things. We saw the falls and went to see the big red wagon and the children blocks. The falls were so big and cool. They were amazing to watch. We were going to go on the gondola but it was closed! we will go back when its opened up again. We saw the Garbage Goat!!! It is a metal goat that sucks up your garbage and its really cute and weird. Who thought of that must have a really creative mind. Then we went to the mall again to bath and body works! The lady that worked there was so nice and she had a lot of friends that have gone on missions. She gave us multiple containers to put stuff in. So this past week I have been smelling good.
I had my first exchanges! It was so fun I went with sister Vance to her area. She is so funny and sarcastic. We went tracking! My first time tracking to! She is so sarcastic and funny. It was really fun to have doors being slammed in your face. we went to this really fancy neighborhood right next to the lake. It was so pretty! Then we went to a members house to eat dinner. I was already so full I couldn't eat much. Its funny I've probably had more rhubarb now then I've ever had in my entire life!
Wednesday we were still doing exchanges and we went to do service at the food bank and we tossed food into boxes. We asked if there was anything else we could help with so we go to put on yellow vests and help people put stuff in there car! It was really fun! Then we went to Newman lake correlation and saw some less active. There are a lot of less active in that ward. Not a lot of investigators. Which is sad because its why we are here.
Thursday was a day where the adversary did not want us to do the work. All of our appointments cancelled. Sister Whitmer was not feeling very good so we stayed home. We did text all of out investigators and potential. We did some service that morning but nothing much.
Friday was new missionary training! Funny story I thought that is started at 8 so we rushed and we got there at 8:15 so we thought we were late! All the doors were locked We called the assistants and we were like the doors are all locked! and they were like that's because it starts at 9. I felt so bad because we were freaking out! At least we were super early! Haha! The training was really fun and really long. I got to see sister Lesuma again which was so fun! We barely had time to catch up!
Saturday was my favorite day so far. We went and saw one of our investigators that is on date for June 2nd!!! We were talking to her and I followed the spirit and pulled out this scripture that i studied that morning and we could tell it touched her heart. So that was really cool. After that we pulled some weeds at a less active members house. We talked with her and her daughter who isn't a member. we saw the biggest bumble bee ever! I was so scared! I'm such a wimp when it comes to those kinds of things. After that we went to the church to fill up the baptismal font for one of our investigators. We were so hungry and all we brought was popcorn as a snack so when we went to the kitchen in the church our other ward was there because they had just finished with a funeral. They gave us all the left over food they had. It was such an amazing blessing. I couldn't believe it. Then we had a baptism!!! It was so amazing. The spirit was so strong! sorry cant send pictures because of a safety thing. It was so cool! Then we had the ward BBQ after which was very convenient we thought.
Then we were putting together a little book for her with cute notes!
Sunday she got confirmed! Which was so cool! She said she could really feel it too! We went to a members house the Andersen's. They are the funniest people! They made us sourdough waffles and huckleberry ice cream for dinner!
Apparently he has Call ancestry and showed me this copy of Anson Call's Journal and it was really cool. He recorded about when Joseph Smith died and how no body knew who should be the next prophet but when Brigham Young spoke they could see Joseph Smith in him some how. And he just talks about a lot of that really cool stuff. I've had so many people come up to me and ask if I'm related to them and I have no idea! I guess I know what I need to do when I come home
Anyway that was my week. A lot of good and a lot of bad. I hope you all had a good week and let me know about it!!!!!!
Lots of Love,
Sister Call
