WHAT THE
HECK HAPPENED! I ONLY HAVE 2 WEEKS
LEFT! SO WEIRD! This week was awesome,
here are the highlights:
2 Exchanges- We went on TWO exchanges this
week. and. I'm. so. tired.
Interviews- We had interviews with President
this week and he talked with me about missionary work the WHOLE time (#bestalmostlastinterviewever)! Literally at the end he was like, "well
we will miss you when you leave" and that was IT. I wasn’t even trunky H.A.L.L.E.L.U.J.U.A.
Zone Conference- We also had zone conference and
we received instruction that we need to work more with the youth. They told us that our focus should be on them
and helping them and their friends come into the church. It was really cool.
Dylan-
From week one when I got here there is a name in the area book that has
always stood out to me. His name is Dylan
and he lives in an apartment complex but nobody wrote down his apartment
number. So because this name stuck out
to me so much, one day I decided we were going to knock every door in the
complex. Nobody knew who he was and so
we kind of left it at that. But I NEVER
took the teaching record out of the area book (which is so unlike me, I always
throw unhelpful things away). At church
this week a lady came up to us and asked if we were seeing him. She said she had the impression that she
needed to talk to us about him, and she told us that Brother Kirk went with the
missionaries to see him. So we talked to Brother Kirk and he agreed to come
with us that night so that we could find him.
He is 11 and he wanted to be baptized but his mom flipped out the DAY of
his baptism. When we visited him, his
oldest brother answered the door and was TOTALLY interested too. He and Brother Kirk became best buds and all of
the sudden both of them wanted a church tour and wanted to come to church with
us. He said his mom would be okay with
it if he went with Dylan. AHHHHH!!! Member missionaries are INCREDIBLE! I think that was the missing piece to us
reuniting with Dylan!!
Miley- This week when we saw Miley we
taught about Sabbath Day observance. In
the middle of the lesson she cries out, "I WANT TO BE BAPTIZED SO BAD,
I'LL DO ANYTHING TO BE BAPTIZED".
Needless to say we set a date in April (dang it I won't be there) and we
talked the rest of the time about the Law of Chastity and The Word of Wisdom, two
of Satan's favorite sins.
My time
is winding down yet it is going so fast here and I continue to be so busy!
Love you
all!
