On Wednesday we went and visited a man who was a Bible request. His name is Paul. He just moved here and the sisters previous had had trouble meeting with him but he wanted to meet with us. We went over and as we pulled up three police officers walked out of his house and so I jumped out and here us how the conversation went:
Them to Paul: Stay inside Paul!
Me: Hey, we are supposed to have a lesson with him right now, is now a bad time? 
Them: Well he is very intoxicated and has been talking about how he hates white people. 
Me: Oh, okay. Well maybe we will try again another time and bring someone with us! We are missionaries for our church
Them: Well if anyone needs you, it's him. 
And Paul was just staring at us from his front door the whole time. It was funny.

We went to The Borst's on Thursday night and we were gonna pass out Halloween candy for them. So, we came at 5 and they forgot to turn on their porch light all night so they only got 8 trick or treaters. But it was fun! They enjoyed the company and I sliced my leg open on an iron rod and Sister Wind signed my cast. It was really gross but I love scars so it's okay.

On Friday we had a mission conference where all the missionaries got called Spanish! President asked all the missionaries to learn some Spanish. So, Sister Wind has downloaded Duolingo and trust me, it has been really fun listening to her yell "el nino!" at her phone. But to help me learn, if yall want to start emailing me in Spanish, that'd be great. Jk not really. 
But I am so excited for this because I wanted to learn Spanish and now I get to! Woohoo. Please pray for me and my tongue. We need all the gifts we can get. 
(Gift of tongues, if y'all didn't get that) 
And at the conference I met back up with my cousin, Sis.Wilson, and the sisters from my MTC group.

On Saturday we went caroling all day!! It was so much fun! We sang the Nativity Song to a ton of people! We wrote down everyone on our area book, around 50 people, and wanted to visit all of them. We got to about 20 but it was so much fun and everyone loved it!! I am so excited for Christmas!

We had a lesson with Lilly this week and she wants to be baptized!!! Its so awesome! She is so sweet! But she doesn't have a lot of support and is struggling to get to church and stuff so pray for her.

This week we made a goal to be exactly obedient in all things. Fully consecrated. Because we need miracles. And it's been crazy. It led to calling 2 other groups of missionaries to discuss if she can sleep while I write in my journal at night and stating every single reason for getting on our phones. But it's been awesome! We've already seen miracles! 
I love you all so much! I am so grateful for this gospel! It's a beacon of light in a dark room. I'm so happy I can be a missionary for the true church of Jesus Christ! 
I love you all!
