Have the donkey and elephant let you down? Turn to the Lamb! March 7, 2016

So! This week has been such an adventure! I was sick for most of the
week, and Sis Lunt got it too, and then Satan has really just been
beating us down. We got blessings after church, and that really has
helped us out.

Nothing really exciting happened at the beginning of the week, but
THEN Thursday happened.

We had dinner with a member who said it was a Brazilian dish-chicken
stroganoff. But, just kidding! We asked her the ingredients, she said:
"oh it's ketchup, mayo, and mustard. And mushrooms. On chicken and
rice." So condiments soup. Delish....

Then, we drove out in the boonies to contact a less active family.
They had been taught pretty regularly, so we weren't too worried about
it. But we drove up this dirt road, to her gate, and she thought we
were drunk girls. Haha, we are anything but! As we drove into the
yard, I knew we were in for it. We walked into their mud room, and
there was their washer and dryer, covered in dirt. They haven't been
touched in years! Then, on the table was a bowl of FUZZY LETTUCE!!!!
Yuck! Their house was hot, and dank and full of stuff. But we taught
them the restoration, and the Spirit was there. It's important to
really love people, no matter their living situation or who they are.
The love of Christ fills you as you serve people, because that is what
He would do. However, we are eating dinner there on Thursday. Sis Lunt
isn't too excited.

Saturday was the best day ever!! We have an investigator named Loretta
who has been meeting with missionaries for about two months. She was
waiting for her stepson to baptize her, as he is a return missionary.
Problem is, he is in Las Vegas. But they haven't talked about it, or
setting a specific date. So we got a hold of him, and asked him to
come up on the 26 of March to baptize her.  We had a lesson with her,
and her husband was there as well! We told her he would be up on that
day, as she just starting crying and laughing, and both of them were
hugging and laughing. Oh it was joyous to behold. She is so happy. And
she knows without a doubt that this church is true. Her husband has
decided that he wants to get back to church, to repent and change.

They both came to church. This is why I am on a mission.

Love you all!

advertisement. I thought it was hilarious.
