Sister Barrow Week #10 - The Longest Week 9-13-2017


 Park by Megan's apartment


 Shaving Cream..... Read the post you will understand :)
 
HEEEELLLLOOOO EVERYBODY! This has been a weird week. We had prep day on Tuesday last week because of transfers. It has been kind of a weird week because of that. We also have been doing a lot of service. Which is awesome! One because service is fun and two I get to wear pants! We have been helping paint the Crish's house. They are awesome! Sister Crish said that I was a really good painter so, I guess taking theater design my senior year was worth it. I mean I was also being compared to Sister Boren who kept hitting her butt on the fresh paint. hahahaha. We also bought nightgowns this week so, it has been pretty great. We are slowly turning into old nuns but, we are fun nuns. 

 The reading was good this week. One thing from the reading that I have used a lot as we have been teaching the Restoration is 1 Nephi 13: 24-29. In here is it talking about the Bible and when it first was written or when it "proceeded forth from the mouth of a Jew" it contains the fullness of the gospel. However, now it doesn't because the plain and precious things were taken out by man. Knowing this though our wise Heavenly Father brought forth The Book of Mormon. He did it by calling a prophet just like He did in times of old. He called Joseph Smith to be His prophet and to translate The Book of Mormon. If you really want to know who God is and what His plan is for you then you need to read The Book of Mormon and pray about it. I know that it is true because I have done those things. I have asked God myself if it is true. I know without a doubt that The Book of Mormon is the word of God and that it contains the fullness of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Well, I will now get off my box and tell you what I am going to be reading. I am going to read 1 Nephi 15-18 this week. I would love it if y'all would join me and email something you like or learned in reading it. 

 Now onto funny things from this week. One-time Sister Boren was going to the bathroom and I was just waiting for her so, we could leave. Well, I thought it would be a great idea if I scared her when she was coming out. I could hear her washing her hands and I decide that it would be really funny if I put shaving cream on her face. I hurry up and get shaving cream on my hands and she opens up the door and I clapped my hands. Oh man the shaving cream went everywhere and Sister Boren screamed so loud. Hahahaha. Thanks fam for sending me shaving cream. I have put it to good use. Oh, this week we were out tracking and we run into this guy named Rocky. Seemed like a pretty cool dude. I mean he has a really cool name so, he can be weird right. We are talking to him for a while asking him about his beliefs and what not. I can't remember what church he was from but, he told us about how he goes around trying to help everyone follow that apostle teaching. We are like great we got this and then he starts asking about how we are baptized and so we tell him and then he told us we are doing it wrong. Then he told us that we need to be baptized again because we weren't baptized with Jesus name. Hahahaha. It has been a solid week.

 Hope y'all have a great week!
 
Love ya,

Sister Barrow
