Merry Christmas Everyone!
Ohio is still great! Sister Lloyd and I are still having a
party! This week has been good! We have shoveled like 3 driveways in skirts, I
slipped on the ice like 50 million times, been told we were narcissistic, and
had a guy answer the door with no shirt and he had some gross chest hair and
man boobs. To top it all off we got Chloe our investigator on date so,
basically have had the best week ever!
This week in my reading I have been reading about King
Benjamin. Which for those of you who don't know is a cool guy who was the king
of the Nephites. He knew that he was about to die so, he got all of his people
together. He turned the kingdom over to his son Mosiah and held like the first
general conference. It is a great time! One thing I liked though was after King
Benjamin does this great talk the people choose to change and repent based off
of what they were just taught. It is up to us to change. We can’t force anyone
to change. It reminded me of the missionary purpose in Preach My Gospel. Which
says that we as missionaries are just here to invite. That is how it is with
everything though. It is up to the individual to change. That is something I
got from my reading this week. I would love to hear what you guys get from your
reading!
Now onto the stupid/silly things that I do through the
week.... Somedays I am surprised that God still lets me be out here because
this idiot can’t speak English really well and I say stupid stuff like A LOT.
Example, one with the guy that had gross chest hair and man boobs. It was cold
and raining and I was wearing my glass so, I could see. Anyways, we knocked on
his door and we were talking with him and I was trying to grab a card but, I
couldn't see because my glass were fogging up because of the warm air coming
from his house. So, I said sorry my glasses are fogging up and he just looked
at me with a look that said that I have that effect on women. hahahaha. Never
going back to that house so, we are all good. Another funny story is yesterday
night I am just sleeping away you know it is night so, I am sleeping. Well, for
some reason Sister Lloyd wakes up at 11:15 pm thinking it is 11:15 am. She
starts panicking that we are late to Zone Conference. In the process she wakes
me up and I am trying to figure out what is going on and she just keeps saying
that we are going to be late. I am just half asleep thinking my comp has gone
crazy. She finally realizes that it is still dark outside, it's 11:30 at night
now and not am. Good news, we weren't late to Zone Conference but, we were a
little tried. hahahaha
Well, I hope you all have a great Christmas!
Love ya,
Sister Barrow
