I got a bloody knuckle from knocking doors all day :) Best missionary accomplishment ever!
Met the sweetest old lady (Sister Crump) at a nursing home. She's LA and really old, but she loves the sisters. When we came in she started to cry and kissed us all on the cheek. She was holding our hands and wouldn't let go! It was hard to say goodbye.
For pioneer day we ate with some members and they cooked us hamburgers in a frying pan. The middle was still raw when you bit into them. I felt so sick afterwords! Whoa! I bet the pioneers did it all the time :)
Ok really the best part of the week was Saturday and Sunday. We talked to Roxy who didn't move to Wichita! They decided to stay because, well they couldn't find an apartment, and really nothing was working out for them there. They've been evicted and Roxy's living at the shelter and her girlfriend Alyssa's with her mom. Well we've taught a few lessons to Sabrina, Alyssa's little sister, and we invited her to church. She seemed really excited and Roxy totally was ready to take on the member role! So Sunday comes and they're 45 minutes late to church. But they came all the same :) haha! We had a great day went to young woman's with Sabrina (she's 15) We had invited her to baptism before but she said she was afraid of drowning. So we go to show her the font after church. There's a bunch of old guys talking in the room with the font. So we take the back way. And standing in the font we invited her to be baptized on august 9th. SHE SAID YES!!! So we are super pumped about that!
:)
Wow sorry I'm so rambley! I feel like I have so much more to tell you but I'm out of time.
Until next week!!!
Love,
Sister Herrin
