Hello! Thanks for all of the emails :) Sounds like everything is going well back at home! This week was a pretty good week for us here too! We have a new investigator named J who we were able to meet with twice and he is awesome! We are excited to keep working with him! We were also able to take a french copy of the Book of Mormon to Bi this week (the guy who came to church last week from Conga!) We meet with a lot of international students which I think is pretty cool!
I took Sister Gonzalez to the doctor this week and they weren't able to find any results.. so I guess we'll keep being patient and praying that she gets better soon!
Since Elder Bednar is coming this Friday, we've been asked that we make sure that we look our best! My scraggly ends weren't looking so tip top, so I had to go to a sketchy place in Amarillo called "The Haircut Lounge" and I rewarded myself for being a big girl by buying myself a gourmet red-velvet cupcake and a birthday cake macaroon :) haha... yeah, I haven't changed much!
This week was FREEZING cold! There was one day that it was around 18 degrees, but the wind was blowing so hard that we had a wind chill that made it zero degrees! Brrrr! We filled a little bit of our time by organizing Sister Dale's 3 bookshelves of crochet patterns--- good times! We also were able to do some service this week at the "Botanical Gardens" in Amarillo in their tropical conservatory. We cut down vines and hauled them to the dumpster in a little golf cart and then were rewarded with a fresh papaya and oranges from the fruit trees! It was neat! I felt like I was serving in the jungle! haha! We had another investigator at church this week- his name is S (from Kenya).
We got a text on Saturday night at 7:30pm asking if we could fill in to speak in Sacrament Meeting! So I spoke about how Obedience Brings Safety. This Friday Elder Bednar will be here to meet with us as the Texas Lubbock Mission and then right after we are having a YSA conference with him, so I will be with an apostle all day long! I'm really excited! I hope you all have a great week as well!
Love,
Sister Evans
