Frosty Tights (Nov 16)






Hello Everyone!

Sorry I said pday would be Monday, there were some scheduling conflicts and it's actually today! We will be meeting Elder Dyches at a zone conference tomorrow.

We had a great week. We were on bikes and it was quite the fun! It was kind of a hassle getting rides for lots of things, but thankfully it all worked out! While on bikes, we just kinda freeze and travel time takes forever, but it's fun! One night it was raining and it wasn't super cold at first. We just took our light rain jackets. It ended up getting super cold super fast and I had a layer of frost on my tights. The rain had splashed so much that they were wet, then it froze! Haha I definitely have a cold now. 

We had a cool lesson with a guy. He was a referral from some members who are in dental school with him. We gave him a chapel tour and he was asking questions as if he was planning on getting baptized soon. We have another lesson with him on Saturday!

We had a cool contact a few days ago. We knocked on this door and a lady opened up right away. She looked at us and asked, "Mormons?" And we happily said, "yeah!" Then surprisingly, she said, "then come on in!" She's a new investigator now. She's struggling with some recent life things but said "I am very open to Mormon beliefs now." God has a hand in His work! We're excited to see where she goes.

Who remembers my bus driver friend? Well we've still been teaching him over Facebook messenger and he has been making a ton of progress! He's also the most kind and generous guy ever and bought us some goodies from Costco and a turkey for thanksgiving! Haha we are super excited to cook it next week.

Things have been fun. We've been using our biking travel time to memorize D&C 4, the mission song, and other fun things. My favorite night was when it was really cold and really rainy and we were biking down this huge busy road. We were singing the mission song at the top of our lungs and were filled with joy! It was a blast. I never thought I'd be so happy in such a situation haha.

Love you all,

Sister Barnes
