It was a great week, nothing too crazy happened but I was just happy everyday. Here are some of my favorite things that happened this week:
-I attract all the crazy people. We met this man on the street and we were having a nice conversation about the gospel and then he tells us "I love this! We have three vortexes coming at each other and they are meshing and doing well together. It's as if we were 3 Narwhals and our horns touched." He then told us that he has mental diseases. He then also went on to tell us "Why do people complain in this day and age. If you don't like your skin you can go to a tanning bed and change your skin color. Michael Jackson "101" people." Sometimes I don't know what's inappropriate for missionaries to laugh at.
-We had a training for new missionaries and it was just a love fest of everything that you love about your companion. President told everyone how he just loves my laugh and how happy I am. My companion told everyone how I love compliments.
- I went on exchanges and my Sister Training Leader who is 28 and a beautiful ginger kept asking me how I got to be so confident. She asked me the whole day. She just couldn't get over it. I couldn't really give her an answer but I was flattered.
- Everyone we talked to wanted the Book of Mormon. Okay, that's not true they all had questions about why we are here and where we are going and in return we promised them that their answers would be found in the Book of Mormon.
- I am trying to take the approach of complimenting people. So in a street contact I will just compliment a person to no end and then tell them that we need them in our church. We meet this lady who was honestly so nice and I told her sincerely how nice she was and I told her we are looking for nice people like that to help us build up the kingdom of God. Well, let me tell you people love to be built up and love to feel needed so I'm just honest and tell people that they have special gifts that the Lord needs in His kingdom.
-We taught an amazing lesson to our 16 year old investigator where we went through the Book of Mormon and talked about the great examples of strength and devotion. So we talked about Nephi, Abinidi, The Stripling Warriors, Christ, and Moroni. You want to feel the Spirit? Just crack open that Book of Mormon.
-mormon.org/motherhood watch that a thousand times. I love it!
-We tried to walk to church but the members are way too nice and picked us up.
I just love life, I love being a missionary, I love the gospel, and I love the Savior.
