Hello, all! There is lots of exciting stuff to talk about this week!
On
Monday night, we taught the W family who is in the ward. They are
so awesome and their daughter is getting baptized on Sunday, so that
will be fun. Anyway, that was the first time a member had seen us in
slacks and they were so surprised! It was funny because by the time we
went to the church for youth night on Wednesday, everyone knew about the
slacks. I guess it had been posted on LDS news or something.
On
Tuesday we had a zone training meeting and then another exchange. I
got to teach one of the people Sister Swanson and Sister Clement have
been preparing for baptism. She is a really cute old lady :) On
Wednesday night we met with the bishop and ward mission leader to talk
about calling some more ward missionaries to help us out! That will be
awesome.
On Thursday, we met with a guy named
J who lives in our complex. He wants to be baptized and we set a
goal for November 19! We also taught one of R's friends, B,
who came to youth group on Wednesday and had a lot of fun! We taught
the Fs again on Saturday and Brother W came and impressed
them with his Spanish skills :) We also had another lesson with J and Sister R came. She gave him a Restoration DVD on
Sunday...because he came to church! So did B! It was so awesome!
That night was a farewell party for a girl in the ward who is leaving
on her mission to Mexico. It was kind of weird to see a missionary
getting ready to leave! That was me 6 months ago :)
Lastly,
I just have to mention the weather. Holy cow. I didn't realize how
bad the humidity was until it cooled down a little this week. It feels
SO NICE! Sister Minson is cold sometimes, but I think it feels great!
It is the perfect temperature with a nice breeze. It reminds me of
spring in Rexburg :)
This week should be
great. We have the ward Trunk or Treat and a lot of people are inviting
a lot of their friends. The work is progressing in the Odessa ward!
