This was a great week for me! We started off the week by getting flu shots... hahaha Sister Bresnahan is 23 and is going to be a vet and is deathly scared of needles.. It's safe to say that getting a flu shot with her was not a simple task!
N, one of our investigators, came to FHE last week and loved it! She is so great! We're excited about her!
This last week we had interviews with President Heap! I love that man! He gives such good counsel and advice! I love Sister Heap too!
I got a package from both Angela and Brittnie this week! Ahhh I was SO excited! Thank you for thinking of me :)
We had a couple of really interesting lessons this week here on campus! One was with a girl named C who is a non-denom and was so nervous about meeting with us, that she was shaking in her boots! I didn't think us Mormons wearing little skirts and polka dot shirts were all that intimidating, but I guess I was wrong :) haha We also taught a catholic study group and it went well! So... remember me telling y'all about W a few weeks ago who was super solid and just fell off the face of the Earth?! Well.... A member of the branch met him a few days ago on campus and invited him to church... and he came! YAY! One of the less active members that we have been working with a lot lately (and is making a come- back to the church) received a spiritual witness that he needed to pay his tithing again! It has been 7 or 8 years since he stopped paying... so he acted upon that prompting and paid it for the first time on Sunday! It has been an awesome week!
I've also been killing all kinds of nasty bugs in our apartment.. I killed a huge cricket in our kitchen and a massive spider! EEEK! Gosh I'm so brave!
This week we have our mission tour with Elder Pino, of the seventy and his wife is coming along too! I'm so excited! It will be on Halloween (this Friday) and then our zone is having a Halloween party later that night! It will be great! Then on Saturday, our transfer calls will come! Woot woot!
Lately I've been studying Christ's life and ministry in the New Testament as well as the Book of Mormon- today I came across Matthew 9:36-38 and I love that it says, "The harvest is plenteous, but the labourers are few." There is A LOT of work to do and it is our (not only the 88,000+ missionaries) responsibility to gather the scattered sheep and bring them into the fold, but everyone's! Christ established HIS church and wants us all to be a part of it! Everyone is a member missionary! Fam and Friends- Go get em!
I love y'all! Have a great week!
Love,
Sister Evans
