life here in the Arizona heat is great! we are meeting with more investigators which is a blessing, now if they can just progress!
also, the ward trunk or treat was a huge success! so many of the less actives came, and some of the ward members introduced us to their friends!!
its amazing just how much the lord loves us. i see it as we plan for our lessons and as i pray to know how i can be better, and what i lack. i have learned so much about myself in the past month (i have almost been out in the field for a month!!) than i have in a while. i know my limits, i know My god and My savior personally. its amazing how gods love works through us. there was an old man who when we knocked on his door fell. my companion and i immediately helped him up, he had to rely on us. he had broken his leg, but was waiting for his appointment to get a cast so his leg was only wrapped in an ace wrap. and he was still having to drive. gods love is real. it is TANGIBLE whenever we knock on a door and meet someone. despite how short the meeting may be i can feel that overwhelming love for them. and it makes me want to be better.
sister henderson is awesome. Our CD player is broken in the car. so we make up missionary parodies to popular songs, its great, we sing at doorsteps. :)
i love being a missionary! its a time when you can forget about the world and just focus on helping people and being a representative of Jesus Christ!
the gospel is amazing i love it everyday! there is an instigator who has had a really rough couple of months he has had 3 family members die, and is being picked on at school. so we were telling him one of our our zone leaders, Who is absolutely TERRIFIED of clowns, had a run in with a dog in his bike at night, thought it was a clown running after him, went into a retention pond and yelled SWEET MERCY!! the investigator (who is 13) was laughing and was saying hes going to be a scary clown for halloween, and came up with this plan to scare elder Peterson
so we talked to elder peterson, who is going to let the investigator scare him because he needs the laugh.
God loves us. and he knows us! even if he knows we just need a laugh!
members let us carve a pumpkin :) also angel moroni? apparently i can okayish carve him?
this is one of our less actives daughters, she wanted a selfie and says we are going to be best friends forever because we are basically the same :) blue eyes, hands, a nose, a mouth. she even pretends to be a missionary!
