Another Week

Image
Heyyy guys!  Good week. Yeah, a really good week.  Especially because wow I love Sister Duez. She is the best.  Anyway,  BAPTISMAL DAAAAATE: OK. Rafael this guy; an elect. Last Sunday he came to church out of nowhere. (36yo). So we met with him this Friday, and found out that he met with missionaries in; get ready... Brazil, Argentina, Japan and London. I know it's so random. And now he's meeting with the best, the ones in Bournemouth. He already knows things about the church and he's super open. He wants to get baptized. He is coming to like everything and help for everything, he started reading the BOM a LOT. SOOOO Allons-yyy! 1st of November (his mom birthday)  NOW I'M AN ARTIST:  We had a relief society/YW activity and we painted the first vision. I'm picasso. THE CHEESECAKE GUY:  Alan. Oooh Alan. He's one of our referrals. He came once to our social (where we eat food) but never to the sacrament meeting. Every time we've invited him. His excuse to...

Something Entertaining

Hey everybody!!  This week was pretty good! We were able to kind of get in contact with Varaidzo. She is going through some personal challenges, but if you would all include her in your prayers that would be amazing.   We taught our friend Sarah, and we taught her the plan of salvation. It was a pretty good lesson, and we put her on date!! She texted us a couple days later and said that the date we said was a little too soon for her, and she would rather wait a little longer. But I'm glad that it is something that she's thinking about, and wants to know all she can before she is baptized. We weren't able to have a lesson with our friend who's addicted to tea, but hopefully we'll meet soon. Not much happened this week... we did quite a bit of Facebook searching, and found a few people we were gonna meet up with. Also, some people are so weird. One guy responded to my first video with a thumbs up, but then sent a video of himself flipping me off. So I sent the second ...

Hey everybody!!  This week was really good! Our friend who was the self referral, I now realize I never said her name. But her name is varaidzo. She never came to institute, but she said that she would come to church yesterday and didn't. She moved flats, and we're not sure where she lives, so hopefully she responds to us, so we can go back and visit her. We haven't been able to meet/talk to her since we went a little over a week ago.   Our friend Sarah is still progressing so much!! She is just amazing. We called her on Thursday, and taught her the gospel of Jesus Christ. We invited her to read 2nd Nephi 31, which talks more about the gospel of Jesus Christ, and then we called and talked with her about it on Saturday. She said that she read it, and is interested in learning more so she can be baptized!!!! Wooooo that was amazing!!! We have another friend who is progressing, and we asked her to pray about baptism a while back, but she is nervous that she won't be able t...

Hey everybody!!  This week was pretty good! We definitely saw a few miracles! First of all, Sis. Anderson and I are loving the new flat!! We have a stand up shower which is the greatest thing in the world. At our old flat the head of the shower is about 2 feet off of the ground. So I hope the elders are having fun with that one haha. The new flat also has a towel warmer. I'm amazed. Also we know how to work the heating in the new flat so we aren't always freezing. The new flat is amazing and it has so many great things. But yeah that's the new flat! We met an AMAZING new friend on Saturday. So Thursday night we got a self referral and she said that we could call her on Friday at 2. So we did, and she seemed so amazing. She was wondering when/where church is, she wanted to know more about the Book of Mormon, and she is going to come to institute on Wednesday. Anyways, while we were on the phone with her, we said we could come by to drop off a book of Mormon and a Bible. So o...

Happy New Years!

Hey everybody!!  This week was pretty good! Kind of a slower week, but that happens.  We are moving flats today, so that is super super exciting! In our ward there are 8 missionaries!! A senior couple, us sisters, 2 mandarin elders, and 2 more English speaking elders. So there are tons of missionaries. But the 4 elders are living together and they are moving into our flat because it's bigger, and their old flat has a moldy room that was pretty bad. So we are moving into a nice new flat and I'm really looking forward to that!  We met with Ricardo this week and we invited the senior couple to come with us because we couldn't meet with him alone and he had some pretty specific questions. So we brought the senior couple and they definitely took over lol. He would ask a pretty simple question, and they would take like 30 minutes to answer it and they would share things that didn't even go along with the question they asked. So that was really interesting. I'm glad that w...
