We had dinner with a couple of them this week.
Ah, dinner appointments....so awkward.
I mean how awkward would you feel if you just moved to a new area and the previous companionship were invited to eat dinner with someone, but then transfers happen and so they get you instead.
Welcome to missionary life!
The 1st meal appointment this week was with the Mylers.
Bro Myler is in the air force (like everyone else in this ward), Sis Myler just had a baby (like everyone in this ward), her parents and brother were there helping with the new baby too.
Anyway, Bro Myler told us all about the new Pokemon Go game, and we talked about how it would be a good finding tool! We just have to find the hotspots (which Bro Myler would tell us where they are) and go talk to the trainers there.
We even know how we are going to approach them! Our new how to begin teaching point is:
"Do you want to be the very best, like no one ever was?" BAM! Teach Restoration!
It will be perfect! THANKS POKEMON!!
The 2nd meal appointment was with the Lethcos. Bro Lethco is also in the air force, and to be honest I don't know what Sis Lethco does.
Well it was Cow Appreciation day at Chik-fil-a, so we and the Lethcos dressed up like cows and got our entrees free!!! I love free food!!
So that happened....it was awesome! Not many sisters can say that they dressed up like a cow for a dinner appointment!
We had Zone Training Meeting on Wednesday so we got to see everyone in the zone! That's always fun! I finally got to meet Sis Golder!
She is the sister that everyone in El Dorado LOVED!
I can see why! She is freaking hilarious!
Oh and in case you were wondering, I am in another car share but in this one we walk/bike 1 week and then we have the car for 2 weeks. Actually not anymore because Elder Ah Ching went home this Sunday :( so now we are in a full car! :D
Anyway we WERE walking/biking this week....actually my bike is out of commission sooo just walking for us.
NOW TO THE PART YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!!!
....I can't tell you how many people have sung that to me....
For my birthday we went and hung out at Beth's. We read from the Book of Mormon with her and talked about what we read.
She called me smart. 10 POINTS TO RAVENCLAW!
Then we visited a potential investigator, who talked to us all about speaking in tongues and what not. But hey, he came to church on Sunday and has expressed his desire to go into the temple! YES!
Oh Elders Smith and Bennett (the zone leaders) called me in the morning and sang me Happy Birthday and then we sang to Elder Bennett because we share a birthday!
THEN later in the evening President and Sister Olson called and wished me a Happy Birthday. I felt special because they usually don't do that, but I also told Pres about my bday in the last interviews....
THEN after that Elder Paxton and Elder Ahanonu came and gave me birthday treats. :)
It was a good birthday!
On Friday it was a recent convert's birthday!
I know, it was a week of birthdays!
So the recent convert's name is Vinny and he goes to the Gulfport ward but he works in our area. He works in the mall at Hot Topic!! The Zone Leaders, who work in Gulfport, asked us to go visit him and wish him happy birthday!
We hurried to finish weekly planning then we ran to the mall!
We hung out in Hot Topic with Vinny for an hour or two....and I might have browsed....
Vinny is awesome and loves the gospel! He really brightens that store up! Also he gave us some cookie cake. It was delicious!
After we left the mall we walked along the beach to get to Beth's house, and we had dinner there!
On Sunday we had 4 investigators at church!!!! That was super awesome! Also we taught the 16-17 yr olds and that was fun. Also there was some missionary work going on because Sidney and Kee came with us and some of the young men helped answering any questions they had!!!
Yay!
That was all! It was a pretty good week! I liked it!
Now for pictures!
(I'm excited about one of them! Nico and Erik will love it!)
