I.... I don't even know what to say about this week.
It's been busy-- I can tell you that much! But I can't remember what
happened, so... this might seem scarce. Sorry.
Um..... on Tuesday we saw Kristy Boswell for the first time
since October!!! Crazy, right? She's been going through some
training for the prisons. Talk about some intense stuff. It was
good to see her again, and she wants us to stop by again! I'm glad she
likes us coming over. :)
On Wednesday, after District Meeting, we went down to Main
street to this little thrift shop called Grandpa's Attic to see if we could
find a CTR ring for Glenda Price, and we ended up having a really great
conversation with the owner, Sheryl, and her friend, Cami! And after
talking to them, Cami asked if we could go visit her sister, or send some
missionaries out there to visit her! She then jokingly said that maybe
even she would change her religious beliefs! We ate that up like candy,
so we gave her one of our pass-along cards, and wrote down her
information. Sadly, her home is out of our area, but it was in the other
Sisters area, so we have them the information. I love how we work
together to further the Lords work!
And then that night, we went to Karysma's home. Talk
about a crazy house! When we got there, their three dogs were going
NUTS. It turns out that they had found two dogs, and they were keeping
them in the backyard until they could find the owners. It was a circus
trying to switch the dogs out so that their dogs had a chance to go
outside! It was great. :) Anyways, we went over the first lesson
with Karysma, and it went well. :) She remembered a little bit, but not a
lot, so I'm glad we got to teach it again.
Thursday, we were able to see Glenda Price and give her the
CTR ring we found at Grandpa's Attic. She almost started crying she was
so happy to have one! She's so sweet.... I'm going to miss her when I
leave Kuna.... (let's face reality, one day I'll leave Kuna.)
We got to see Carol Anne on Friday. We taught her
about going to church, praying, and reading the scriptures. But sadly,
she hasn't listened to the CDs we got her yet. But she's apparently
getting internet, so she'll be able to download the Gospel library on her
tablet! YAY! Now if only we could help her progress....
And Saturday, we saw the Taylors of course. They're
doing awesome, like they normally are doing. But he didn't come to church
this week. :( Oh well, there's always next week.
We had a busy Sunday.... we started with Ward council for
third ward, attended 3rd wards Sacrament Meeting, left early to make it to the
Assisted Living home in time for their sacrament meeting to give talks, went
back to the church for 10th wards sacrament meeting, taught the 17-year old
youth class about how to teach the Plan of Salvation (which, by the way, was
THE quietest youth class I have ever been in), and then knocked on doors all
night. Didn't really get in to visit anyone, except dinner. And
that's okay-- we tried. :)
And that's it for this week! I love y'all and keep the
faith!
Love,
Sister Empey
