Monday was a hectic day. The Banks (one of the senior office missionaries) wanted to take us to Coeur d'Alene to get a gooey at 4. We got huge gooeys. I got the chocolate one and it was so big that we had to put some to go and there was still some left over! So we had to get everything done before that. Then we get a text from sister Thompson to be the missionaries for this video for zone conference. We had to be there at 2:30. We were the examples of being bad missionaries and staying inside our car and not talking to people. She had the Elders be the good missionaries that walk and talk to people. It was super cheesy and the whole mission saw it.
Tuesday we had zone conference. It was really neat. We had to drive all the way to Coeur d'Alene for it. So there goes our miles! Haha!
Wednesday we drove to Newman lake then rode our bikes everywhere. We asked this one lady for water and she pulled out 2 chairs and gave us water bottles. It was so nice of her. She also gave us referrals to go see in the neighborhood and she isn't even a member! It was really nice of her. We also helped the Elders do service for a less active.
Thursday we had weekly planning. We then went tracting around.
Friday we had exchanges and I was with sister Brandow. We went and saw Dee and gave her a lesson. We then saw Steven, and he said he found a different church. We said something that wasn't meant to offend, but did and he went back in his apartment. We will go back later with some cookies. We then went to the church and there was this guy that was walking his dog. We stopped him and talked to him and he said he was a lifer and he said that we were a cult. Then he also said "I know evrthang about your John Smith". Haha!!! I about died inside! Poor sister Brandow you could tell she was a little upset. He also said we didn't believe that Jesus Christ was the son of God. Oh brother. We told him that we are just here to put a smile on people's faces and that it was nice to meet him. We then had a lesson with Gavin but he wasn't home so I had the feeling to knock on the door across the street. This little old lady welcomed us in gave us water and we gave her a lesson. She loved it and we're giving her a church tour on Saturday!
Saturday we helped a member move his wood that was in their front yard. We then had a lesson with Jordan! We finally got in contact with his mom again and he is on date for baptism!!! Yay!!!
Sunday's are so hard. They are long and exhausting. They are so important though. We went to the Newman lake ward in post falls. We then had dinner at the Wright's. They are so nice they give us raspberries all the time! We the had a lesson with Kayla. She is the bishops foster daughter and she wanted to learn more. We gave her a lesson and it was so powerful and spiritual. She loved it. We gave her a book of mormon and asked her to read it and pray about it. We then went to go see a potential by the lake and the lake was so pretty. I wanted to jump in it so bad, but I didn't. Haha!
Well this week a lot had happen and transfers are half way! That's crazy! This week in my studies I have been able to really focus on the Savior and how he taught. He was the perfect example and I'm so thankful for that. I know that he lives and loves everyone of us and knows exactly what you are going through. I hope all of you have a great week!
