Missions are Fun

Spiritual: While on exchanges, our plans changed on a whim so Sister Guthre decided to have me pray over our map and choose a street to tract tonight. I chose Willowbrook Ln which was a place i had never been before, but that seemed like a good place to go. We said a prayer about it together and headed over. While there, i was so nervous. All of the houses were huge and the yards were really immaculate, so pretty much super rich. It was really cool to see how praying about a specific number of return invitations really led to a specific, prayer-confirming result. We also had a great conversation about how Faith+Works=Miracles

Funny: Another day, as we were leaving a nearby apartment complex we saw a large black guy sitting on the stoop and playing loud music. It made me laugh because he was totally listening to a remix of the Spongebob Squarepants "FUN" song. That's obviously how you know he is really legit. He is on my list to come talk to next time we go by there. 

Where I'm at: I've been in Arkadelphia, Arkansas for about a month. I really like the people, the food, and even the humidity. I have been having a really great time with my trainer and am so sad that she will be leaving me in the beginning of August. Our new mission president is really helping us and challenging us by giving us new ways to grow and things to do to be even more successful. 

Sweet is the work!

Emma also said that the gal they had scheduled for baptism had a life change and moved but is getting married so now she can be baptized which is good. She said that they have six new investigators so that is also exciting.
