Week 20: Missionary life...

Hello!!! So this P-day is cut short because were going to the temple on Thursday! Yay! I'm so excited! 

Monday we went bowling with the district. It was so fun, even though I lost last place. Haha! It was still really fun! We then went to play softball and that was fun too! After p day we went and saw a less active that we didn't know he was a member. We invited him to church and he didn't come. 

Tuesday we went and saw Jordan. We taught him the plan of salvation and he got a little choked up when we told him he could see his uncle again. That was really a special moment. That night we stayed at a members house so we didn't have to use a lot of miles. 

Wednesday the members we stayed at fed us breakfast which was really nice of them to do. We did service for the community who feds children during the summer. After that we were knocking on doors before dinner and this guy was cussing at us saying were full of crap and to grow up. That Kind of shocked me a little. So we walked for a little bit. Then this lady that a couple of weeks ago we stoped at her house and she gave us water and chairs to sit on, she pulls up and tells us to get in the car. She said we were crazy for walking in the heat with dresses. It was really funny. She gave us water and drove us to our dinner. Haha! She also offered us to a gate code for a private pool and we said we couldn't. Then she asked what if she pushed us in. We couldn't help That! Haha!!! 

Thursday we did weekly planning. We then went and saw this one guy who lives by the church. We talked to him. He is really cool. We then had dinner at the Banks. A senior couple that works in the office. It was there last time feeding us before they go home. It was Kind of sad. Then we passed out flyers for the BBQ were hosting tonight. So Yay! 

Friday we had district meeting! Then we went to Costa vida and a member paid for our meal! It was so nice! We then saw a couple of people.

Saturday sister Hawkins and Sister Dobravulsca ( I think that's how you spell it) went and did Russian work. So sister Brandow and I went and worked in our areas. We had a church tour with Mary. Who she is the sweetest lady ever! She just loves us but doesn't love our church. So it doesn't make sense but I will take it.  We then exchanged back and went and saw Mary parks. A different Mary. Her mom is deaf so we were learning signs from her. It was cool!

Sunday was a day of disappointments. We invited a lot of people to church and none of them showed up! It was sad! After the Newman lake ward we were so hungry. We asked Brother McComb's if he would make us pb&j's before church and he did! Haha! He's the best! After church we went to go see the mom with the animals and the fleas. Yep they have fleas again.... and were going back.... to do it all again. Yay!  Then we had a meeting with the mission president about the Russian work. I don't have a say in this but, I think that it's really cool and it would be awesome if they started a Russian branch. 

So my week has been a long one but it's been good. After every trial there is a greater blessing. Love all of you!
