This week has been the craziest, weirdest, hardest, saddest, most insane, happiest, hottest, coolest, most spiritual, and most changing on my mission! I have never felt so many emotions in one week as i did this week. I know without a doubt that this week is one for the books!
So to start out we saw miss Debbie and helped her clean and eat her food:) She asked us if she could just call us over whenever she actually wanted to cook and we told her of course! (she lives by herself and doesnt cook very often) I just love our investigators!
We were suppose to have a baptism Saturday...but the Lord had other plans. Sammy and Sir have left Greenville. Dont know where they are or what they are doing....so that was really hard to just have our two most progressing and willing to change to just drop off the face of the earth and not have any closure to the subject. BUT we have faith in our finding efforts to find the next Sammy and Sir and have a different outcome:)
Wednesday we had the best scripture study class! We had some of my favorite members in the Greenville ward there and we just learned so much as we follow the spirit and discuss what they want to talk about in the chapters we're going over. LOVE IT!
We went to another favorite members house and sang HAPPY BIRTHDAY to her as she turned 88 that day! She about fell off the porch with happiness! She is amazing!
Friday we went to Sis. Washingtons and had dinner...in the process i had my first Kool-aid pickle....was interesting...but i love it!
Saturday we had our M&M night:) Was a SUCCESS! lots of people came brought friends! Oh how i love the words FREE MILKSHAKES and apparently so do the people around here:)
Now the subject of my email...so Friday we had a GIANT storm! WIND(wich is an Idaho wind...but you dont get it much here in Mississippi) and RAIN(the normal kind of Mississippi rain...buckets!) and it blew trees down and took out power lines. So our power went out about 6ish on Friday night. Then we heard that it would get turned back on at 10ish or midnight. Well we woke up many times that night because well it was HOT! no AC no fans....just heat! We woke up that morning and still no power...didnt really know what to do so we went to the church. Luckily the church had power:) Set up for the M&M night. Found out that the power didnt get turned back on till right before we got home Saturday night. Can I say miracle or what!?! Like The ac had kicked on and it wasnt too hot, but man it was just soo great to do things the hard way of missionary style cuz we didnt have power...but we still had our missionary power!
Sorry bout this one being a long one, so i wont give yall a challenge this week! Other than KEEP BEING AMAZING!
LOVE YALL!
