This week was super rainy and great! We were pretty much drenched for three days straight but it's alright be cause we had this conversation:
Random guy named Michael: what are you doing walking around in this??
Us: the truth doesn't stop for the rain! (Or something else super missionary-like and weird)
Michael: are you jehovahs?
Us: nah we're members of the Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints! Can we give you a little pamphlet?
Michael: sure, if you're out in this weather. Aren't you allowed to have umbrellas?
And we got to explain a little bit of the restoration to him and sister Colvin was holding a nice grapefruit the whole time. And that's about how missionary work goes! Blessins!
Ummmmmm
But this week was cool! We had a member drive us around for a few hours (
) on Wednesday and we ended up at young women because all the streets were flooded! We got to do yoga in skirts and learn about the word of wisdom! It was awesome! It was also helpful because they were trying to teach them about how bad sugar is for your body and sister Colvin and I said, " we're in the midst of a great war against sugar! Aka the 40 day sugar fast our whole mission is on. Sugar is bad for you! Even though it tastes good! Make good choices!" And they went, "shoot, that's dumb." But it was nice that we felt useful.
We had a couple guys try to tell us what we believed this week. That didn't last long because we have THE ACTUAL AUTHORITY FROM GOD IN OUR CHURCH. One still tried to chase us down with his bible as we biked away. But it was an interesting testimony builder. It's nice to have your own testimony and not feel like you have to rip someone's else's faith apart to make yours stronger. #giftoftheholyghost
But yes. This week was good and my butt isn't so sore from biking and we're talking to lots of strangers and sharing our testimonies a lot and it's just the best time even though some people say no! It's still true no matter what!
Please pray that the people we're teaching will continue to progress in the gospel!
Don't forget to read your scriptures!
