Hey Yall!
What a week! I mean this one really has been maybe the longest week of my entire mission! Let me tell ya how each day went!
Monday:
We had a blast! The Greenwood Elders came and we finally all got to
have a great pday...cuz there is nothing to do here. So we went on a
nature walk that is behind our apartment. Coolest district photo's
below! My DISTRICT>Your district (just kidding! all missionaries are
great)
Tuesday: We gave service at a food drive, and spent
the day tracting. Tracting really isnt the funnest, if you've ever been,
but I also tell my comps "you dont know fun tracting till you come out
with Sister Durtschi!" (yes, as a missionary i refer to myself as third
person.hehe) But it's true you gotta make the most out of it! Thats
where all the cool stories come from! Sorry I dont have one for this
week tho! It started raining buckets that night!
Wednesday:
We had to drive to Brandon Mississippi for a Zone Training Meeting
(ZTM) in which we were taught to help others understand the importance
of the Book of Mormon and how we need to keep it sacred! I love the Book
of Mormon! I've never been a fan of reading a whole lot! But dang kids
lemme tell ya something...I CANT PUT IT DOWN! The stories just come
alive as you sincerely read and ponder its words! I love it! It also
kept raining all day and it started to flood today.
Thursday:
Poured ALL DAY LONG! This is day 2 of it pouring the whole time! Wasnt
so bueno! The flooding became a lot more! I mean dang! So we went and
tried a few people to make sure they were ok, but not a lot got done
because of the weather.
Friday: STILL RAINING! Like who
knew the sky could cry sooo much! Went to a members house who fed us
dinner and told us she's been mopping all day because its been flooding
her house. We decided were gonna help everyone we can with getting this
flood thing under control!
Saturday: Saw Darrel today! Was
sooo good to see him! He is reading from the Book of Mormon and is
loving it! Cant wait to see what happens with him. Still raining! The
rain is just a givin every day now.
Sunday: SUNSHINE! we
had sunshine for 6 hours! It was so nice! But then "here comes the rain
again, fallin on my head like a memory!" This storm was bad last night!
The worst one i have ever seen! Lightning, thunder, flash flood, wind,
tornadoes. Like it was a crazy night! But as we prayed we were comforted
in knowing we would be ok. So it was a great night! Love the many
blessings we each receive from prayers!
As you can tell
this week has been a little chaotic! BUT sooo good! We've been able to
help so many people and talk to sooo many people about relying on Jesus
Christ! I love the SOUTH!
