Hello!!!
Happy late Mother's Day!
Skyping my fam was so great!
Man I miss those guys.
So the highlights of this week:
Well first Matthew is super excited to be baptized this Saturday at 4:30pm!! He told us he's met with missionaries for the past 4 years off and on and something just clicked when we were teaching him. Also we went to pick him up for church but he wasn't there so we were super sad. Turns out he beat us to church and was there with his daughter Annabelle waiting for us and saved us a seat! We are so excited for him!
Kodie who is 11 is also stoked to get baptized this Saturday at 11am! She was sick on Sunday but still came to church, proud of her! We found two new investigators this week and they seem super interested. It was a day of knocking and a lot of rejections so we were pretty discouraged. We walked up to this door around 8:30pm and I said a little prayer in my heart that they would at least be nice. They opened the door and were so nice and open and said they want us to come back!!! We are excited!
So update on Jorge... He went to jail for 3 days this week on Friday to Sunday, so he missed chruch:/ he got a DUI a few weeks ago so now he's paying for the consequences. He now has stopped drinking, smoking, and vaping!! We are so proud of him. He still wants to be baptized on the 20th but because of legal complexities he can't, so we have to push his date back. First time I have to tell someone they can't be baptized on the day they want, weird. We had exchanges this week. I went with Sister Schell! It was a fun day...and a very hot one! I got pretty sun burnt. She's an awesome sister!
Last Monday, Katie, who I taught back up on usu came and saw me and took us to cafe rio! She drove all the way from Ogden to see me, she is the sweetest! Man I miss that girl! She's doing really well and even has met with more missionaries up on campus. She truly has a testimony of Jesus Christ.
So funny story: we were talking to this man on his door step because we had just knocked his door. Well as we were talking to him we heard someone yell "SISTA SISTA!" And we turn around and its this guy walking down the road. He then comes toward us and then starts talking to us as we are still on the door step of this man we just were contacting. It was so weird. So the man said "looks like you have someone else to talk to" and said goodbye and shut the door. I was a little bit mad because this guy who came up to us just ruined our door contact. So we left that house and kept walking and the guy kept talking to us and trying to flirt with us. It was pretty ridiculous. We kept trying to get away but he just wouldn't budge. We Finally got away, it was an interesting night.
Well a lot happened this week but not too much to update on. I just want to say how much I love my mom! So on Sunday we go to three different sacrament meetings and all of the talks were on moms and it got me thinking about how much my mom has done for me. She has prepared me for my mission and brought the gospel into my life. She is a convert to the church and I am so thankful for her decision because the gospel has brought me so much joy and happiness into my life, I wouldn't be the same without it. Happy Mother's Day!
