I hope y'all had a wonderful week this week! Our week has been interesting, that's for sure. We have had lots of ups and many a downs haha. Overall it was still a great week. We spent most of this week sick actually. At first, I was sick, and then sister Larsen got sick, and then I got food poisoning, and Sister Larsen was still sick. So, that being said... it's been a week.
Monday we had a great day! S. Larsen actually set off the fire alarm at the church. She was messing with the little switch and she accidentally knocked it off the wall. It was probably one of the best moments ever. Watching her scramble to put it back on was hilarious. Then I just had to play it out and tell her that the fire department was going to come and freaked her out. It was hilarious.
We met an amazing lesson with a girl named Amy this week. She is fantastic. She is searching for peace and happiness in her life and she said that when she talked with us that she felt closer to accomplishing that. She cried as we left and said that she couldn't wait to see us, and learn from us. She told us that she already knows our message is true.
Wednesday night we were judges at a mutual activity and it was hilarious! We had so much fun being around the youth, afterwards when we were cleaning up a priest passed me a basketball and yelled to shoot it. That led to a game of three on three with kids from the ward. At the end of the game the bishopric was on the corner watching. We were scared that they were going to be mad but the bishop walked up to us. Grabbed the basketball from my hand and shot it. He said thanks for building relationships and being people around his kids. It was pretty great. We are playing again with them this Wednesday and one of the priests is bringing his non-member friend to play.
On Thursday I got food poisoning. I ate a hamburger that wasn't fully cooked and it destroyed me haha. We had a lesson with Jose and it was a very cool lesson. We had Christine there with us. It was cool to see her teach and testify of the things that she knows to be true. We taught the restoration and as we sat and taught he just stood there and shook his head in agreement. He said at the end that he felt God was proud of him for meeting with us.
Sunday was our regular church schedule. We were in church from 9 until 2 this week. Not too bad. We had lots of meetings and there were some amazing meetings this week. I learned a lot. We spent the night helping make and deliver cookies to the new move ins in the ward. It was a fun night. We were able to work with the young women and it was fun to gain their trust. At the end of the night one of the beehives said to another "I have never met sister missionaries that I have actually liked!" That was a good comment to hear.
We spent a good amount of time tracting this week. We found a couple of new people to teach and had a good time. I actually don't mind tracting too much. If you ever want a day to pass by quickly... go tracting.
Well y'all. I hope you have a fantastic week and that you stay safe. Stay warm. Texas took a turn for the cold and went from 70 degrees to 31 over night. I hope you all are happy!:)
Love,
Sister Gray
