Week 73



This week has been pretty awesome!! We had SOOO many members come out with us and it was just amazing. The Bishop last week was saying that the members need to come out with us more and that ever night we should have a member with us. i was hesitant... because.. what if it's the "wrong" member and they just offend people and blah blah whatever.. BUT he insisted so we were obedient and even though we (mostly me) didn't agree.. we did it And great things happened =) The members get excited about sharing the gospel when they come out with us. 

 

I live in Mentone! this is a painting that is on the post office =)

 
While walking down a busy street i started to wave at all the people in the cars (i have become WAY to friendly) i got 11 people to wave back at me in 2 minutes!!! it was awesome and made me so happy! A lot of those people smiled and looked really happy too, i LOVED it. 


Little town in the mountains that is in our ward! when we go here i feel like I'm in UTAH!


We ate dinner at the Coons house this week. They have 3 little girls and a 11 year old son. They were talking about their PE teacher and how cool she was. I asked them what made her "cool" and they told me and yahtah yahta.. then I said "guess what guys?" they said WHAT i said" I’m going to be a PE teacher" the 11 year old boy says "oh, cool, so are you like physically fit" hahahahah it was a funny conversation. After dinner i ran out to the car to grab a pamphlet for them and they followed and watched me (they are obsessed with missionaries) and the little girls says "Sister Davis, come here" "you just ran like a PE teacher" ha ha ha ha ha. hm. well i hope that was funny to ya’ll.... it was funny to me. 

 This is the service project that we did last week =) the one that gathered together more than 20 thousand pounds of food! we sorted all the food in these boxes. there were a lot a non members there, me and my companion talked to two ladies and they asked us a few questions, it was awesome! now they know more about Mormons.

WE got 2 new investigators this week! Yolanda we just met walking down the street. And Lorina we have known for about 1.5 months. We finally got to teach her! She said she is going to have a open heart and that she will read the Book of Mormon. We are teaching her her first full lesson tomorrow. We taught the couple who are on baptism date for Dec 13th the word of wisdom. They don't have any huge addictions so that was awesome! They are excited. Last night they came to a baptism to see what it is like =) they are doing great! 

 Going on exchanges! learning from each other!

On Saturday night an African American guy was trying to contend with me ha ha. It was funny. he was talking very loudly at me while we were waiting in line to get gas... he was telling us how Joseph smith is a racist and that we are being miss led. Then he followed us outside... he kept talking and i just kept smiling... then i got sick of sitting there, we needed to go so i said just come talk to me while i pump the gas. So he did ha ha and continued to tell me all these horrible things. I said those things aren't true. He talked over me so i just smiled. Then finally i think he got tired so we shook hands and he left. ha ha i love when ppl yell and me and tell me ridiculous things... is that normal??? 

Sorry if none of this makes sense, I’m not proof reading and my mind is elsewhere. 

Wave, smile and say hi! That’s all it takes to brighten somebodies day =) 

Love,
Sister Kersey Davis
