Hello everyone!! This week was pretty long, but super good!! Here are some highlights:
-We got to teach Kendall again. She is SO awesome!! She started studying about the Atonement on lds.org. I just want her to get baptized so badly!! Please pray for her and her family that her eyes will be opened to the truth and blessings of the gospel. Also she will be in Logan for her daughters wedding in the summer so it'd be cool if you could meet her!! And her future son-in-law served his mission in bolivia.. Maybe braxton knows him!?
-We got to be in a Tri-pan for a day while transfers were going on. Sister Peacock (one of my MTC companions) came with me and SIster Gatten. It was super fun! We showed up to lessons with members and I think our investigators were a bit overwhelmed becuase we had so many extras. It was awesome though!
-We met a Philipino guy one day while tracting. We taught a brief restoration at the door and then asked to come back when his wife would be awake so we could teach them. He said yes so we left a book of mormon and planned to go back. Well sister gatten lost her preach my gospel that day so we were thinking maybe it fell out of her bag at his house. When we called to confirm the appointment sister gatten asked if they found a book anywhere that day. He said yeah you left one.. the blue bible do you want it back?" Haha wrong book. He ended up cancelling on us and not wanting us to come back but atleast he has the book of mormon still!! That was kind of a random story but it was super funny.
-We decided to rest Chelsea and Jay for a bit. They are the ones who were supposed to get married a few weeks ago. THey havent been progressing at all so we thought we should use our time trying to find people who will! Kinda sad, but hopefully they will now realize what they are missing and start progressing again.
-We were tracting one day and both had our toques (canadian word for hat) and hoods on. We knocked on a door and a guy answered. He thought we were boys because he could not see our hair. Hahaha
Something I learned this week.. "Charity, like faith leads to action. You will develop charity as you look for opportunities to serve others and give of yourself." Charity is one of the greatest qualities and traits of Christ that we can develop. I hope that you will all look for ways to serve those around you and develop this trait in your own lives!! Love you all, have an awesome week!!
