One Awkward Moment

 These last two weeks have been very busy for us! We found a few new people to teach and that was really exciting! 

Robert actually found us. Sister Bruce was helping me back the car out of a parking spot and Robert had just parked. He saw Sister Bruce and started asking her questions about what we do as missionaries. This week we showed him the church building and talked about a regular church service. We even talked about baptism, callings, tithing and the Book of Mormon! He's so excited to learn more!! 

Jason is another friend we recently started teaching. He requested to learn more about prayer so our first lesson we taught him how to pray as well as introduced him to the Book of Mormon! Jason has been going through a really difficult trial in life and he told us he was about to give up but then God put us in his life. I know the gospel brings so much joy and hope to my life, I'm grateful I was able to share some of that with Jason! 

I had probably what was my most awkward contact in my life! But we're awkward for Jesus so its okay! Sister Bruce had a prompting to knock on a door so as we walked over there we saw a lady with her dog in her side yard. She saw us and we all walked until we met in the middle and we talked about her dog for one second then asked for her name. Robin said she isn't religious and because we don't run across that response very often we were both caught so off guard, we weren't expecting that! I really didn't know where to go from there but I opened my mouth and kept talking anyways. Robin stopped me before I got like 3 words out and said she had to go inside but told us we could come back! My first thought was, "why?!" Haha but we'll take it. That was a testimony to me that God magnifies our efforts! 

We had a great lesson with the Crapse family yesterday! We've been studying the Book of Mormon with them and it was an amazing experience to explain how the Book of Mormon has power in MY life! I've felt the love and power of Jesus Christ as I read the Book of Mormon but especially as I apply what I learn! I invite yall to find a way to apply something you've learned from the scriptures this week! 

Please pray for
Chelsey- that we can meet more often 
Angel- that she's feeling better 
Wheelers- regain health
