The Green Paper


This week was not a highlight. Actually it was pretty darn fun but I got the stupid green paper! Its a form that the soon-to-be departing missionaries fill out so that the mission can send us our flight itineraries. I super NOT stoked for that day when I know the time I will land in Salt Lake. I also got a parking ticket from a street sweeper. It was so dumb the sign said that it was like the 2nd and 4th wednesday of the month between like noon and 3pm. WE WERE HELPING THIS OLD COUPLE CLEAN THEIR HOUSE!! The adversary is rude. It wasnt a expensive ticket but it sure was annoying! 

 

The good parts of this week was that miracles are happening in our area! The members finally trust the missionaries again and are giving us referals. We are eating dinner with several families this week that they invited their friends to be taught by us afterwards. This has never happened in Somerset before! Its so awesome! We have done a lot of service this week too. From cleaning houses to yard work to building swing sets. We are getting it done. 

 

Transfers were this past week and I am staying with Elder Hernandez. Im pretty happy, honestly i am hoping I finish my mission here! having my last area as a 6 month would be sweet! We will see what the Lord has in store though! 

Right now we are teaching a few cool families. The Hernandez family is a part member. They are so amazing! They dont have a date anymore because they all got super sick and missed church for a few weeks. My favorite family is MaryAnn and her kids. They are so very special, and her daughter is actually a member. The ward loves them, our only sad issue is that she wont commit to a date because she feels like she needs to be perfect in order to be baptized. So we will see how it goes! 

 

Love you all!
