Sunday Fun Stuff

So this week was good. We had zone conference and that was Great!! As
always. I love meetings like that-just missionary meetings, because
you know that it's super inspired and what you need to hear. President
and Sister Jardine did the first training in finding and that was so
good. We've been trying to do a lot of finding in our area recently
because we have no investigators. But sometimes after days full of
just finding for weeks in a row....eh, you lose the perspective of
what you're doing. But the training super helped. Sister Jardine
shared a story of a kid that got lost at scout camp back in utah and
the reaction and the effort put into finding this one person and how
long it took etc. The Urgency of the situation was so real. And we
need to have that same urgency now. These people who are waiting for
us, are literally just waiting on us. We are the ones who are lost who
don't know where they are. It was just good to be reminded, that there
is a proper way of finding and that it is an urgent matter. It was
good. Then the APs did a training on the Book of Mormon, and that was
awesome. Because they just kind of called us out for sliding into the
pattern of just handing out pamphlets and jesus cards. Sure those
things are good tools, but the Book of Mormon. HELLO. It got us all
excited. The question one if them asked was How would Joseph Smith
feel about how you are using the Book of Mormon in your proselyting
efforts? So yeah. He gave everything for that book, and you aren't
even using it. You leave it in the car, or in your bag. So they
challenged us to always carry one in our hands whenever we leave the
apartment. And we've had some cool miracles. Right when we got home a
few hours later we checked the mail, BoM in hand haha, and a lady
who's sister is a member recognized us and talked to us for a while.
It's such a nice break to be contacted by someone else instead of
having to initiate yourself haha.

Anyway the last part of the training Pres talked to us about Charity.
And it was so good. He's the bomb. I love him. I want to be as awesome
as him someday.

And the rest of our week was good. Haha, we had a creepy member give
us a watermelon, and he talked to us for a while, and then he tried to
tell us his story about moving to america and I was like SORRY (not
sorry) we have an appointment and we'll be late, maybe next time, and
we left and got outta there stat. Haha #newyorkdrivingskills.

And zone morning glory killed us. We had it twice this week and it
made us so tired haha.


There's half the watermelon which I ate all by myself and then dumped
all the juice onto our couch while taking that picture. 



That's all the hermanas.


And I got my bike!!! Yay!!!!


Love you all!!!!
