Some weeks you just never know what will happen
next. Welcome to that week haha! We are still trying to focus on finding and
talking to everyone. As usual, lots of random happenings came out of that. We
met a lady named Vida (I like to call her Vida Min) who basically just said all
of the right things. She is all about Christ and families, but she doesn't go
to church right now. She wants to learn about her genealogy, but doesn't want
to buy ancestry.com. She's so cool. Hopefully we will get to work with her.
More out of nowhereness. We had the 3rd emergency transfer in the area since I've been here. One of the elders had to go home for a medical problem, so we got a new elder in from FSU campus. The Lord keeps sending us missionaries from Tallahassee. They done don't like it out here in the boonies but whatevs. Hope he survives and isn't too shocked when the first person he talks to on the street is one of the many town loonies haha.

One of the recent converts we visit, baptized before
either of us got here, basically came to us as therapists
and told us we are the only people that understand
her. We weren't really sure what to do so we just let
her cry it out for a while and told her Jesus loves her. She
was back to semi normal the next time we saw her, so
hopefully it helped some...Then
yesterday out of nowhere our lady who walked in to
sunday school last week came to all three hours this week. We
visited her at her Avon booth on Saturday, but for obviously
reasons couldn't do a lesson with her or anything.
But then she totally made her way to church on sunday. We
aren't sure if she is investigating or church hoping
for fun but she did say we can start teaching her lessons
and such. And she actually helped us set up the church before it started. The elders investigator
came early and helped
too. That made two nonmembers serving in the church.
Score one for them.
Expecting
the unexpected and more out here.
