Hello, all! Happy Independence Day!
So K chose a baptism date! She is getting baptized on the 30th. We are so
excited for her! She even told her parents and they are not thrilled,
but they may want to come. Her friend who is moving will still be here
and the first missionaries who taught her (4 years ago!) are going to
fly out. We have been helping her get to know some members of the ward
better and there was one woman who was really able to help her because
she has had similar experiences. On Saturday, we just went through the
baptismal interview questions just to see if there was anything she
needed to work on, but she is totally good. She is applying to go to
BYU-I in January and we are so excited! I told her about the apartment I
lived in there and she said she would check it out.
On
Thursday, we got to meet the new mission president and his wife! I
just love them! They are just such nice people. It was kind of a crazy
week because we had some really great experiences and met some great
people who want to learn more, but we also had some really rude people.
I got my first door-slam :P One woman talked to us for a really long
time and gave us cake and ice cream. She is amazing and really wants to
learn more. Last night we went back to a family we met last week and
they gave us mangoes :) They had great questions and really want to
come to church. We just had really good discussions with a lot of
people this week!
Not really sure what else to
say. But this was interesting...On Friday night after we were in bed,
we kept getting phone calls and texts. I got up once to see what it
was, and didn't recognize the number and the text was talking about a
pizza delivery, so I figured they had a wrong number and went to sleep.
It turns out Sister Anderson's parents tried to order us a pizza, but
we were already in bed and the pizza guy couldn't get into the
building. It was sad, apparently her mom was calling bishops and doing
everything she could to get that pizza to us! The bishops of both wards
came up to us on Sunday and asked if we ever got our pizza...nope :(
Anyway,
definitely an eventful week! Hope all is going well with all of you!
Might I point out that I didn't get any letters this week...hint hint :)
I want to hear about your lives!
