Hey ya Ding Dongs!
Guess who's sad about possibly leaving another area she loves?? This squirrel! haha this is the last week of this transfer and I have been here for 3 transfers already so there's a good chance I'll get the boot. Who knows though.. President is a sneaky one. I will let you all knownext Monday. So this week.. what did I even do?
We helped clean the church Saturday morning and went through the archives of the church building. We found some sweet stuff like this heart wrenching film:
We also found some old youth dance cards and a bunch of old Young Women stuff. I'm sure this mirror once hung high in the YW room. Now it's collecting dust and dreams have died.
You're a ghost Harry.
This Sunday was so sad but also so great because a bunch of investigators and non-members came to church, we had a billion kids show up to mission prep, and we taught Tamara her last lesson before her baptism on Tuesday! It was sad because my dearest friend Emilie is leaving on her mission in a week and this was her last time coming to mission prep :( She is going to be amazing. Look out Salt Lake! All you people who ain't mormon yet better hide yo kids and hide yo wives cuz she baptizin' everybody out there.
Love my mission prep crew
We had a zone conference this week about creative finding and how we could think of new ways to find people to teach. This weekend was the annual Mount Vernon Street fair so we thought that would be the perfect opportunity to go chat up some people and find those who are ready to hear the gospel. We definitely talked to a lot of people! I also met this fairy! She was so cute!
There were these guys holding these signs and screaming at people going by and it was CRAZY. Maybe we should try doing this next time.
you heard it here folks, "turn to Jesus or BURN IN HELL!!!!"
Probably not the best approach.
Look at the poor kid that has to stand by his parents while they scream and yell at people and there's corn dogs the size of TEXAS just a couple feet away.
So close, but yet so far..
We found this really cute "Little Free Library" thing in front of someone's house
Had to..
Downtown Mount Vernon is super cute. We are going there today to just window shop and stuff. We were there a lot this week because of the festivities so we took some pics at this cute wall we found.
Speaking of baptisms, Tamara is getting baptized on Tuesday! I love her! Life is good in Mount Vernon :)
Something to pray for:
Michelle and Rodger are two of our awesome investigators who really want to get baptized. The only thing that is holding both of them back is the Word of Wisdom. Please pray for them! I love them a lot!
So this week wasn't super eventful but it's always a good time. I love it here. I love the people, I love the things I learn every day, I love my companion, I love the areas I have served in, I almost even love the rain. I also love all of you :)
Reeses Peaces
Love,
