And then Tuesday was ZC! As usual, it was awesome! But also super sad... It is hard to say goodbye to family! A big group of people are going home this transfer, including my favorite Elder Barrett! He wanted a picture, and Sister Dalton got one from the side. Sadly, I forgot both my phone AND my camera, so I didn't get many pictures LOL!
After zone conference, Sister Dalton and I headed back home for an appointment, and therefore missing zone dinner... But then a member gave us free food at subway, so it was all good!
On Wednesday we went down to Boone to see... THE DOCTOR! Yay! But, everything is all good and we went back to Story, with just 10 minutes before dinner. We were just going to rest for a bit since it had been a long day, but both of us felt that we needed to go somewhere... Last week, we were knocking and we knocked into this guy. He told us that he wasn't interested, but that he knew his girlfriend met with missionaries in the past, so to come back during the week. So, we went there and B is so adorable!! We love her so much already! She just loves Mormons in general, and gets super jealous when people complain on Facebook that we came to their house because we are like celebrities to her. The only reason she didn't get baptized in the past was because she didn't feel God telling her for sure that this is His church, but she is hopeful that the answer could change! Soon after we left, we got a text from her. She had called the sister that taught her 4 years ago, and now we have an awesome fellowshipper! Yay!!
We went to dinner with a member to this Mexican restaurant... And they have a giant beer bottle LOL
On Thursday we stayed inside most of the day and did our weekly planning, since we weren't going to be home on Friday. Why wouldn't we be home?
BECAUSE WE WENT TO NAUVOOOOOOO!!!!! We left at about 4:30, and got there just in time for pageant! The ride was crazy tho... We went with our STLs, so we were crammed!
Sister Henderson being a goof...
When you realize your famous!
Then, Sister Woods (the member we came with), Sister Dalton, and I stayed the night at a member's home in Nauvoo, and bright and early in the morning we went to the temple!! The other sisters did baptisms while we went to an endowment session. And you will never guess who we saw there!!
My favorite Elder Housholder and Elder Hebbert!!! They were just as surprised to see us as we were to see them, but it was so fun!
I have an ever growing collection of selfies that elders take on my phone... Featuring Elder Housholder
Us with the amazing Sister Woods!!
Me and Sister Dalton in front of the temple :)
We thought we looked like the statues.... Who did it better? ;)
We didn't end up getting back until way late Saturday evening, but it was definitely worth the exhaustion!
On Sunday, not many people came to church... AKA, 30 people total came LOL! We have been having these intense thunderstorms, and people were low-key terrified that it would turn into a tornado, so they stayed home... But we are all safe! No tornadoes this week!
What do you do when you haven't been able to contact your people you are teaching? You stalk them at their food truck!
