Climbing Street signs
Megan Rd
Carol's Angles (read below)Random sign
an actual warm day!
Another one down
and another one down. Another one bites the dust.
Now that I am done
singing. This week has been solid. One of our investigators basically said he
was Mormon this week. What a blessing! We also had another investigator
say that our church is her church. Now if we just get her to stop smoking. hahahahaha.
Spiritual thing
then onto the funnies. We have a less active we have been working with, Sister
Mack. She is pretty cool, but super accident prone. Proof of that is that
she slipped on her driveway and broke her ankle and had to have surgery.
Understandably she has been in a lot of pain. We offered to get her a blessing
and she said that she wanted one but, that she didn't want her husband there
because he isn't a member and didn't feel comfortable. We got some Brothers to
come with us to the hospital after church to give her a blessing. Her husband
ended up coming back early and was there during the blessing and he loved it.
He LOVES God and was so happy that she could get help from Him. He was awesome!
The blessing was great! She now is doing way better and hopefully will be home
this week!
Funnies! Yesterday
we were out in Greenville, which is like super far away but, we were getting
fed by some members up there. We decide to spend the day up there and tract
down some less actives. It was a party! One house we when stopped by was
literally in the middle of nowhere. Legit their neighbors were Amish. We drive
up to the driveway and it has signs going down the drive saying things like
turn back now, keep going at your own risk, and because of the high price of
ammo expect no warning shot, but we keep going. We get out after some serious
prayer hoping that we wouldn't die. We knock on the door and this lady answers
ask her if she is the person we are looking for and she says no. So, we go down
this crazy drive and it wasn't even them! Come to find out it was house down
the road, but you know middle of nowhere so, it is like a half mile down the
road. We go knock on that house and the BIGGEST, GIANT, HUMONGOUS dog you have
ever seen in your life! Bigger then Fluffy off Harry Potter, came charging at
the door. I am surprised the door didn't break! It did break the curtain down
though. Then it just left its paw sitting on the frame of the window on the
door and sat there growling at us. It sounded like a dragon! I am pretty sure the
growl its self could have blown all the 3 little pigs house down. Gratefully,
no one was home and we left a note on the door and didn't lose any fingers.
Then later that day still trying to stop by less actives. We stop by this
Sister's house, we knock on the door heard her yelling, her mom let us in and
we can still hear her yelling for something. We walk in and realize that she
was yelling for pants.... I love Youngstown. One more funny story. Once again
we were trying to find less actives. We were in Hubbard, which I realize that
none of you know these areas but, whatever. Anyways, we are driving to this
address we have for this lady named Carol. We end up in the trailer park
#whatablessing. We are driving up trying to look for her number and bam this
bright pink trailer like hits you in the face. Wouldn't you know that is her trailer.
We go and knock on her door and she just answered and said to come right in. We
both just looked at each other like who is this. This never happens. We find
out she is Carol, so we go inside and in her home you have angels, cheetah,
pink, pictures, and crazy stories coming your way. This lady is great! She is
like 78 and is from Reno and has the glasses to go with it. She also has been
struck by lightning twice. She is a crazy lady, but oh man she is like my
favorite person! She also has a bad memory and tells you the same story like 50
times. Oh man I love it! Youngstown is a party!
Hope y'all have a
great week!
Love ya,
Sister Barrow
