I cant believe its been another week already! This week we had a lot of interesting slash cool things happen. So starting tuesday we were knocking and this lady names Gail (not oprahs best friend...) comes up to us and is like hey! I wanna talk about God with y'all come to my house on thursday! so we did. oh she is a HOOT! She has 4 kids and had them all by the time she was 21 crazy crazy! She loves helping bring people closer to Christ and she looks up sermons on youtube and every sunday puts them on and the whole apartment complex comes to listen. She wanted to get our view on things to help her teach them.... dont know how that will work out. anyway we are going to see her again this week! also on tuesday a few minutes after meeting her me and my companion got a strong impression so go visit Betty our San Angelo grandma. She is going through such a hard time and it sucks because she is just the sweetest lady in the world. She just found out 1/2 her income is being taken away so she has to move out of her hosue. Not to mention her lungs got infected during her surgery so she hadnt been able to work the past 2 weeks so the Antique store had been closed. When we went to visit her she said she was hoping that we would come and if we didnt come soon she was about to call us and tell us she needed our help with the shop right then! so we went around and dusted and moved some stuff for her. Oh I just love her so much! we actually taught her a little about how families can be together forever and she loved that! none of the missionaries have had a chance to really teach her and we dont know why everyone just feels like its not her time yet but she always says that whenever she's in trouble God sends her a mormon! so she's getting there for sure!
So this week we also met Shelby on campus! she's pretty legit! she goes to a biker church right now but it super open and has accepted everything so far. we are meeting with her again tomorrow and she says she has been reading and praying. Oh my we asked her to say the prayer at the end of our first lesson and sidenote im not making fun of her but this was pretty funny. Her prayer was all good then she ended with. Welp im going to read the book of mormon now.... bye... haha it was great! She's so cute and funny. Then we also met with Chelsea this week she said her family was coming into town Nov. 3rd anyway so she's plannin on getting baptized then! which is awesome! We also met with Hope. oh I love her! Everytime she text us me and Sis. Neilson get so excited! so is so precious! she just got two new cats that she loves texting about! I cant wait to meet them and I dont even like cats but since there hers im pretty sure they are adorable! oh we just love Hope so much!
Funny story of the week... we may or may not have knocked a mental institution.... our bad... So we go knocking and we get there and its apartments that look so cute and adorable! and this little lady comes up to us and is like oh your with God! I wish I could do that I'll show you the apartment thats needs you. and so we start following her and shes waddleing along and she's like there that one right there! they are fornicating getting drunk and doing all sorts of stuff. then she starts going off about how theres a spiritual war in these parts and that these people are seeing demons and we need to help them. Then she was like can I say a prayer with y'all? of course!!! so we stood and help hand and she gave the sweetest little prayer in the world! then we start knocking.... first door this lady just kinda stared us down and shut the door... next door this guy obviously on drugs or something and after him me and my companion got the worse feeling so we hauled it out of there! Then we were talking ya know a lot of the time you get used to the spirit being with you and you dont notice it as much. But once it leaves you it makes a huge difference and all you want is to have it back! And thats how we felt all we wanted was to have the spirit back and of course eventually we got it back and we were so happy but that was crazy!
Anyway theres a girl in our branch Katrina. she totally knows Elise! So that was a way cool!! anyway hope everyone has a great week!!! and I love y'all! and Love getting your letters!!!
