Week 18

This week has been hot and wonderful!

-I got to see fireflies for the first time! It was great! They are so cool! 

- We got to do service for sweet Sister Burris and Sister Henderson too! While we were planting flowers for Sister Henderson, the biggest spider I've ever seen not in captivity appeared in the garden AND it had a sack on it filled with baby spiders. It was not necessarily our forte. But Sister Henderson saved us by killing it with a shovel and then she started to tear up as she realized she had killed the baby spiders. It was kind of funny. 

-Stacey had an awesome lesson with us! We had just had zone conference and discussed inviting people to church powerfully and so that's exactly what we did with Stacey. It was so interesting to me because as we talked about the significance of sacrament and such, her mom, who is a member just started telling us how she didn't care about the church anymore, the commandments, and didn't want to see us anymore. Sister Erekson and I were on the brink of tears. This woman, who has loved the church and been trying to help her daughter come to church, just did a 180 all of the sudden. We told her we loved her and if that's what she wished we would comply. Stacey's mom then stormed out and left us to comfort Stacey who was now in tears. Stacey went on to tell us that she knew this church is true and that she wants to continue taking the lessons. We invited her to church and she exclaimed she'd be there! After we left, we felt the impression to text her mom one last time to just let her know that we still loved her no matter what! On Sunday, a miracle happened! Not only was our investigator there, but her mom came as well! And the miracle didn't stop there! Every testimony and lesson shared that day pertained to them and their struggles! It was amazing to see the Lord's hand in their lives!

- We found some super awesome potentials while tracting the other day! It was crazy hot, as in like 104° hot and we decided we were going to go knock some doors. Well, Heavenly Father blessed us because even though we were extremely sweaty, we found many people that see,ed genuinely interested! And we were able to give out five Books of Mormon! It was awesome! 

P day was great today we went out and played Volleyball:)
