Monday July 22, 2013

HELLOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
well. i wasn't going to mention but birthday... buuuut...... IT'S MY BIRTHDAY THIS WEDNESDAY!!!! and i have a birthday request from everyone. go out.... and............ FIND A REFERRAL FOR A MISSIONARY! or tell someone about mormon.org! or TEACH THE ENTIRE GOSPEL AND CONVERT 50 PEOPLE!! whichever you'd like :)

okay ANYWAYS.
this week. was..... crazy...............................
lots of crazy stories. hahaha too bad i can't tell you all of them!!!! just know it was CRAZY!
okay lets see. FIRST of all we're getting better member help :) WOO!! that is a HUGE deal ifyou don't know! getting their trust and referrals and members to come to lessons! it's big! woooo! :)
we got one referral and she's english but she let us in and she was SO cute, cutest family ever, she honestly just was looking for ways to bring her family closer to christ, and stronger together, and she said her daughter just didn't get their other religion so their looking around...................... :) welcome future member.

oh man there is the sweetest missionary here who broke her hip, we did an exchange with her and i stayed in with her, we watched the testaments in spanish, guys it is WAY BETTER IN SPANISH. hahaha i love it.
anyways, best movie ever.
well uh being STL is kinda craaaazy! my number one advice for ANYONE thinking about, doing it soon, or one day going on a mission, or ON a mission, is to just... be... obedient. guys i cannot stress it ENOUGH. to every single tiny dumb stupid rule, up to the huge obvious do not do on a mission rules. be obedient. i cannot describe or explain enough how important it is! for your happiness, for other peoples happiness, for the people you're teaching, anyways that's all. I love exchanges though, i love these people!

SO! noemi :) we visited her in her new hospital! still in the ICU, BUT a lot better! they're just waiting to put in her new pace maker, but we came in and sat down and she immediately was like alright i wanna read! get me my BoM! and we grabbed and and sat back down and she stopped and was like... "get yours out too!" haha we were just taken off guard we forgot! she is so awesome, still progressing great. pray for her to get out soon and get BAPTIZED! woo!!!!!!!

we met this awesome girl Jade, she is so cool. WAY sensitive to the spirit, she said she wants to be a missionary, we're teaching her and her boyfriend now! she loves the book of mormon, she said it felt familiar when she read it! I love finding people so ready like her, that's one thing you learn though there are gonna be a lot of people who aren't ready, you can NEVER let it get to ya though! we're plantin SEEDS!

oh man guys. here's an embarassing story. hahaha so me and sis. judd are giving a training in zone meeting, and at the end we're both just bearing testimony, and i'm bearing strong testimony and it's dead silent and i'm finishing my LAST SENTENCE and the last word i say was short with an s and i lisped it.................... randomly. hahahahaha it was SO FUNNY. made you had to be there though... hahaha just imagine it.

AHHHHHHHH! first huge cockroach in the house..... it was TERRIFYING. we have hardly has any bugs! so yeah. we just put a bowl over it and left it there for two days.... hahaha and it died eventually.......... so. we're pretty proud of that how we handled that....... haha
