Hello all!
I don't have a ton of time to write this week, so
sorry about that.
Highlights of the week:
-Sister Hehl
got stitches on Saturday. Okay, that's not a highlight. But it was something
rather big that happened haha. We were having a lesson at Dave and Jessica's
house and went on a walk on the trail behind their house. We were walking back
up the hill and Sister H sliced her ankle on a broken glass bottle. She didn't
think it was too deep, but alas, we could see her tendon. I almost puked. Not
really. But I did get shaky. But anyways, I made some slightly frantic calls to
Sister Eaton and President Eaton and they directed me to take her to Urgent Care
where they stitched her right up. I was actually the doctor's assistant, helping
him by sanitarily (is that a word?) opening up sucher equipment. I forced myself
to watch him give the stitches so that I would be less squeemish. Ya, I'm still
squeamish.
-We had a great lesson with a less active named Orrin. I
shared Mosiah 2:17 and he started crying. He said, "Sister Morrow, you are only
the second person in my life to make me tear up. You have changed my life. I can
tell you right now, you are meant to be on a mission here, right now. Both of
you are." I was kinda just floored. What an experience.
-Dave and
Jessica need some prayers. Satan is doing EVERYTHING in his power to work against them. But we are
working even harder. I know that God is on our side and will bless them to
overcome their trials.
-An Aunt of one of our investigators called
us and chewed me out. Specifically me. For inviting her nephew to be baptized.
That was fun. After the phone call I just bawled. I felt so down on myself! I
have been working so hard to do God's will, and that's how I was treated. But,
life is life, and that investigator has the choice to be offended about being
invited to repent or has the choice to accept the invitation.
-The
pastor that Dave and Jessica live with asked us for $300,000 for her
organization. That was fun trying to explain to her that we have NO idea how to
help her and that she needs to get in contact with other people. She wouldn't
have it.
-We participated in a service project as a zone to help
set up a fundraiser auction for a home for battered women. It was really fun,
and we got to see a lot of beautiful art. Dad, there was an artist selling
candles that were made out of rocks! The rocks were cut and polished and an oil
lamp is attached to the bottom and wick comes out through the rock. He lit one
for us...it was gorgeous. I wanted to buy one for you. You would love
it.
Love, Sister Morrow
