It has been a week for the books! Not sure what book but a week for the books! First news, I am not getting transferred! I will be staying in Warren with Sister Anderson until the end of January, and Sister Barton will be going back to her area. I am so excited to be here for Christmas!
First off...
THAT AWKWARD MOMENT
1. When we stopped by a potential investigator who was super friendly and really open. She had a little baby laying on his stomach sleeping and Sister Parry makes a comment that goes like, "awe you're baby is so cute! Well, it's backside is anyways!" and the lady gives you a weird look. Good job Sister Parry, you just complimented a baby's butt. #footinmouth2. When we have Dinner with Brother McDunn and Sister Parry makes a comment that goes like," that's okay, older men are the best men!" honestly, I don't even know how to put that in context.
3. When we stop by an investigators house and he opens the door obviously extremely high on who knows what and says he can't watch the two minute video you have because he's" contemplating what to have for dinner" and Sister Parry snorts. Needless to say, if Sister Parry has learned anything on her mission, it's how to put her foot straight down the back of her throat.
ANYWAYS,
HIGHLIGHTS
1. We had the best service opportunity ever, Brother McDunn, who is 84, let us put up his Christmas tree! YES. Let me tell ya, he had a ton of ornaments. Pics to come.2. It Has snowed and it looks like it's here to stay! YAY! Side note, if anyone wants to get me a Birthday or Christmas present, I accept hand warmers or cash to buy them. I'm freezing my buns off. 3. We had a super awesome lesson with Chazz about the Plan of Salvation and he had so many wonderful questions and a powerful testimony about what happens after we die. FINGERS CROSSED, He is supposed to be baptized this week, but we have run into a few complications. PLEASE keep him in your prayers.
4. That one night when we tried to contact 25 different people and no one answered! That was an awesome night. At least we cleared out who is interested and who is not ;)
5. I have gotten more letters this week than I have practically the rest of my mission. Thank you SO much to everyone who sent one. I have felt overwhelmed with love and support and have the best family and friends ever! Side-note, if you send me a letter, I will always respond. That's pretty much all I have! I hope everyone is having a WONDERFUL Holiday and staying nice and warm! I'm seriously so thankful to be a missionary during this time of year. Christmas softens hearts! I love you and godspeed!
