wow this week has been a really really weird week. But I loved being able to call for Mom's birthday!!! I hope y'all are doing awesome!!!!
So we had a lesson with Anna this week, we were there for 2 hours teaching the first lesson, which we did eventually teach but the whole time. We feel like we explained the lesson well and she seemed to understand it, all throughout she expressed a desire to learn more and to be taught the lessons and so we set up a lesson for Saturday. For our companion study before her lesson we pretty much spent the whole time planning and role playing how we were going to teach simply and set expectations and to help her stay focused on the simple truths of the gospel, we prepared for everything, and the we got to where we were going to meet her for the lesson and she didn't show up. LOL and that was so weird because we prepared for every possible questions and concern, but the only thing we didn't prepare for is her not showing up. sister Curtis and I were both flabbergasted, Sister Curtis described it best when she said, "it's like the first day of a university class and this one kid spends the whole time arguing with the professor and then gets up to leave and says "this isn't over!" and then never comes back" LOL.
Another weird thing this week we ate alligator. it tastes like fishy beef, but it's pretty ok! We had a super fun relief society activity this week! it was a fiesta!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it was so fun so hang out and get life advice from all the sisters in Relief society, we've got a bunch of great sisters in our ward.
We got an amazing referral from the Spanish elders, we met Vanessa after spending 5 hours trying to avoid the myriad of potholes in her apartment complex. Vanessa is great! she's really open to the gospel and wants to start going to church more.
Kristi got out of the hospital so we were able to go see her and help her out. She's been going through some tough times, but she wants to change and improve her life and to be part of the church.
My favorite thing I read this week was a talk by Neil A Maxwell titled 'Patience' It's real good. here's a link to it.
I Love you y'alls so so so much!!!!!!!
