I had NO IDEA what to say, but I opened my mouth and words just started coming out and it was awesome! I said something like we need opposition so when we experience sorrow we can know joy and happiness. I honestly have no idea what I really said. but she stopped me and said, wow you're really smart, shook my hand and told me her name was Bobbi Jo. I was just really confused because i had no idea what was happening! Heavenly Father had my back on that one for sure. But then Sister Sperry did a really good job explaining the Book of Mormon! Bobbi was like "so we need the Book of Mormon because its about the people in ancient America, and God loves all his children, so he helped the people in America right?" we were just SO excited because NO ONE understands that, we didn't even tell her that, she just asked if thats what it was about! So then we gave her our number and that night she texted us and asked to meet our bishop! So right now shes SUPER golden! So we have an appointment tomorrow to give her a tour of the church and to meet Bishop Smith!
So a LONG time ago, Sister Farrer and I were tracting and we knocked on this ladys door and she was speaking some middle eastern language, so we couldn't talk to her, but the other day Sister Sperry and I were going to our dinner appointment but we were kind of early, so we decided to try and talk to her neighbors, and we ended up knocking on that ladys door again (i had no idea that was that same ladys house, im not the most observant person) but she answered, and I was like awe crap, sorry to bug you again, but her son came out and he spoke English! so he talked to us and he was telling us how he was happy we came back because he said his mom told him missionaries came over and he wanted to talk to us! he asked if we had a book so we gave him the Book of Mormon and he was pretty excited! he wants to take the lessons but he's super busy with school, so he said hopefully we will still be here so we can teach him! so we gave him our number and he said he will text us when he is free! Then later that night he texted us and thanked Sister Sperry for sharing her experience with the church!
So the other day we get a call from the ap's (assistant to the president) and they told us some other sisters in the mission got into a car accident, and they needed a car, so they asked if they could take our car. We were totally fine with it because our areas are pretty close to each other, so its fine to bike, BUT this was a pretty bad week to take our car because its been RAINING 24/7! so yesterday we biked to church in the rain haha! its been fun, but also miserable... But that's about how our week has been!
I love yall!
