Sister Barrow Week # 27 - Peace Out Alliance 1-9-2018

 

 

Hello Peeps!

 A lot has happened this past week! First off Sister Lloyd is training again, and I am leaving Alliance. However, I am not going very far! I am actually staying in the Youngstown zone! I am going to Youngstown Area! What a blessing! I will have a part of and live in Pennsylvania so that is great! I am excited and the fact that I will be able to see Sister Lloyd on Sunday for stake conference is a bonus. God is good! The rest of the week was good! Nijah came to church and we picked her up as an investigator again so that is a blessing!

This is kind of a weird story and sad. We went to go visit Sister Flannery and no one answered which was super weird because she is an 80 year old lady who can't drive and like never goes out. Well, we tried stopping by on Saturday, so I could go say by to her and still no answer. Right then Sister Saxey texted us and told us that Sister Flannery had passed away. Tears a flowing in the car but, we had places to be. We got ourselves together and headed to our appointment with Nijah. We ended up talking about the plan of salvation and she opened up to us about her grandpa passing away and how it is still hard on her. We were able to share how we just found out about Sister Flannery and that how we find comfort in the plan of salvation and that we know exactly where Sister Flannery is and that she is with her husband and friends. As we continued to talk about the plan she just said it makes senses. It was just really good. God works in weird way and I am sad about Sister Flannery passing but, God using her passing to help His work. Which is what she would have wanted. 

Now to make this a little more upbeat again and tell you some funnies. Last week when we were setting up an appointment with Nijah she told us that she would make us lunch and I told her that I can't have wheat and that she didn't need to. She wanted to. Well, we show up and she has pasta for us........ I couldn't have it so, I was just going to say that I don't want any but, she brought me like this huge bowl. Me being my super awkward self didn't know what to do. At first, I just set it on the table and talked but, then it felt like she was staring at me like why aren't you eating this food I made for you. hahahaha so, I just started eating the meat out of it and it worked out. hahaha. 

That's all for this week! Hope you all have a great week!

Love ya, 

Sister Barrow
