So this week has been really good. We have done a lot of teaching. It is amazing to have watched this area grow. When we came in we ended up dropping and being dropped by quite a few people. God has blessed us with amazing people to teach. I love them so much. That is truly the hardest and most rewarding thing on a mission is the people. I am not excited to not be a missionary anymore merely on the principle of as a missionary you have opportunities into peoples lives that you would not have otherwise. It is amazing. I love people. Wanna hear a story? Ok good. So on Saturday we went to go visit a Less Active and she was not there. But. There was a guy across the street outside with his dog. He is in his 20s and he has long black hair and a scraggly beard. His dog is tiny and named Tu Pac. He picked up his dog so he wouldn't bite us because apparently his dog is a biter. He let him down and Tu Pac jumped all over us and licked us and made himself an adorable nussence. And this kid was blown away by the fact that we could pick him up and he was ok with it. And yes. We started teaching him. He is awesome and his name is Mike. We went back on Sunday and had a super lesson. He already is trying to quit. He is fantastic!
Also on Sunday we went to contact a referral from a less active member and this woman has had some really tough stuff which is why we were sent over there. We didn't inform her of our true purpose but we did share the plan of salvation with her, parts of it, and the spirit was so strong. We were able to ask perfect questions and she was able to open up to us about what she was dealing with and we are going back next Sunday. Working with less actives is my favorite thing ever. They are so great and they have friends!!!! Love them!
I just love Sutherlin with all my heart!! The people here are amazing!!!! So much so!!!!!!!!
Have a good week.
