Soooo this week was good! Kind of a lil roller coaster but i love roller coasters;)
First things first. I'm not being transferred! Sister Spackman and I both get to stay here! I'm so happy. :)
Thing 2 I don't have Nanny's email but i got her package and
LOVED the hats, can someone thank her for me? I'll write her a letter
too.
Okay. So last thursday we went to Main Stays to do
service and it was awesome. It's this therapeutic horse place.. I don't
know how to explain it. So we got to groom the horses and pick up poop.
THE BEST! ;) haha it was really cool.
Then on Saturday was the ward halloween party! Brenda(one of
our investigators) made alllll this food for us to take but couldn't
come to the party.. Everyone LOVED it. She makes the best spinach dip
ever. Yum. Everyone was sad she didn't come. BUT she came to church
yesterday!! OH man it was awesome. We told her it was a little different
kind of Sunday because anyone could go up and share their testimony, or
what they believe in. And she asked well can i go up? We said sure!
Then she said we would have to go up with her haha. So we did and it was
awesome! Her testimony was great and she made me cry. After sacrament
meeting she had to leave but everyone was asking us when her baptism
date was and we were like uhhhh she doesn't have one yet! It was really
cool. And then after church we called her to kind of see how she felt
and to tell her how much everyone loved her testimony, she told us it
was her birthday! we were like what?! Why didn't you tell us?! So we are
going to get her something real special today haha. love her.
After that AWESOME experience, we stopped by a less active
family..... Who the dad was the ward mission leader right before we
came. Awkward. So we were talking to him.. and It was so sad. He thought
we came to get his story, but no one had sent us of course, so he
dumped all this information on us. ha. it was so confusing. He wouldn't
finish his thoughts because he didn't want to offend us or shake our
faith.. good one. I was just so confused! He attacked the church without
"attacking the church" and it was so sad. So pretty much i just sat
there trying not to cry because i knew whatever i would say he would
politely backhand. It was just sad.. He gave up. He didn't want to work
for it anymore. I just don't understand how you can have all this
knowledge, all these blessings, and just "chuck the fruit across the
yard".. Dah.
Don't EVER give up. I love this gospel so much. I love
watching Brenda and those we talk to light up as they learn more about
this gospel :) I KNOW that this is God's true church. I know that the
Book of Mormon is literally a roadmap to eternal life.
