Monday: We got to go carve pumpkins with the zone. It was so fun to see everyone's pumpkins. Sister Jones and I had the opportunity to go to the Ensgin Choir concert also. Oh my goodness it was amazing! Our friend Laurie came with us and the office missionaries drove us down. We saw beautiful Seattle when it is foggy and oh my goodness it was so cool, the Space Needle looked like it was floating.
Wesnesday: We had district council and we talked about being a successful missionary and that it all comes from the right mindset. I believe that is so true. If you don't think you can you won't, but if you believe you can then you will. It was so good! Then we went and had lunch with a sister in the ward (Sister Moffett). She is the best! We have the most deep conversations with her and we leave her house with our minds blown. But it's good. We helped her with some service. We had dinner with the Pereira's and they made us this amazing Brazilian dinner with chicken and rice and amazing black beans with sausage. It was so good!
Thursday: We got to go out and meet a member in the ward. She was so sweet! So we pull up and she and her kids are in their van. She tells us to come over and then invites us to sit in the passenger seat of her van. Lol so Sister Jones and I are squished in this seat trying to have a nice conversation with this sister. It was great! All worked out! We got to go serve at the food bank and that was super fun! It started to rain so that made things exciting.
Miracle: We go to have a lesson with a family in the ward and when we get their they have friends over. So the mom of this family invites her friend to join in the lesson! It was member missionary work at the finest. So we taught a simple Gospel of Jesus Christ lesson.
Friday: We got to go to Costco and have lunch with our friend L. She baught us lunch and it was really good! We got 3 hot dogs and 3 drinks for less than 5 bucks! Costco is the where to go! Okay so the members in this ward are so cool! So the members we ate with were asking us what we will be wearing for the ward Halloween party. We didn't know so I threw out that my sister dressed up like an Elder one year. So the sweet sister helped us get white shirts and ties to be able to be elders for the party. It was great!
Saturday: We saw lots of people today. Many of them were not interested and that's okay. We got to go quickly get dressed up and then our plan to be elders backfired because we don't know how to tie a tie. So we were waitresses. But everyone still thought we were elders, or women in black, or old fashion sister missionaries or those creepy twins in scary movies. Lol! It was so fun to be with the ward! They are the best!
I hope you all have an amazing week and a Happy Halloween!!
love,
Sister Stokes
