Straight outta Detroit

Hello all! Crazy ups and downs this week!

Monday- great P-day... we had planned to do fun things but... we just napped... for 2.5 hours.  It was needed! 

Tuesday we taught a 101 year old!! She was so stinkin cute! She was scared of what would happen to her after she died so we just testified of eternal families.  It was a special moment.   Also we got to see some sweet cows!

Wednesday We had district meeting, and then we helped old ladies do their nails at the nursing home! It was so fun they are adorable!  Also, I stepped on a rusty nail while door knocking.... luckily the guy whose pourch we were on was super nice... he gave me some shoes... then later that day we had a fender bender.... (Not my fault... )  So it was a little stress full. 

Thursday we got to go to the temple!! It was super great! It was amazing to be with Ruth Ann and Marilyn doing baptisms for the very first time.  The spirit was so strong and it was a very special day! The drive was long and crazy, but it was worth it. Also for the first time in a few weeks we got to teach Charles and Lacey! We brought a member with us and it went well.  Charles has a lot of questions but they have a sincere desire to learn. 

Friday we had lots of appointments bail.  But we got to do service for a super cute old lady who may be interested in learning more! That was great! Also we had a lesson with a lady who we visit a lot but she doesn't want to be mormon and we asked her if she had prayed and asked if it was true... and she had! She just doesn't want to be a mormon... funny huh?  We are working on that. Also.... WE HAD CURRY!!! IT WAS THE BOMB!! A super cool British guy and his wife moved into the branch and made us like Bombay house equivalent curry.  #BLESSED 

Saturday we door knocked and it was HOT! But one person pulled over to give us water and another lady let us sit in her shade and drink water... people are so nice sometimes! God works through his children a lot.  Also we taught Ruth Ann the restoration and her testimony has grown SO MUCH!! 

Sunday was WONDERFUL! Marilyn and Ruth Ann both talked about how amazing there experience was at the temple.  It was a great meeting and the spirit was amazing.  Then we were out finding people and we door knocked into a super cool guy who is a great family man. He was awesome and super nice.... hopefully he will meet with us! Also Charles and Lacey came to FHE!  It was so great because they weren't going to come but we randomly decided to drive by to check on them and so they came.  It was so great because the people there answered a ton of their questions and helped them a lot.  Man, I love being a missionary. 

Fun Fact:  We got offered to take shots by our neighbors the other night.... 

I challenge you all to read 3 Nephi 17 this week.   That is my FAV chapter of the Book of Mormon. 

Love you all!
