Hairy Bellies!

Well would you look at that! It's already been another week! This last one flew by!!! It was great though! You know it's funny but I feel like I exhausted all my resources this week and was having an out of body experience. Oh there I am being a missionary. But in spite of my wacko dysfunctionings we finally hit standard. Which I haven't been able to do my whole time with Sister Clerico. So the Lord totally works through the weak and imperfect :) 
Also I got sick Saturday and have been coughing and sniffling all weekend. 6 hours of church was almost too much. I just crashed when we finally got home! haha! Poor Sister Clerico! We still went out and worked afterwords. Speaking of! Crazy story! So we got a call from this lady named Sue brown who we'd never met before saying that she had picked up this homeless boy and was wondering if the church could help. Well we went over to assess the situation. It was downtown in this basement apartment. Super trashed. This short wrinkled lady with tattoos and men's clothing takes us downstairs. She is a member of the church. We didn't have her on our records. We walk into the kitchen and there's this young guy sitting at the table. He said I didn't know there were three heavens! There was a giant Book of Mormon on the table and it looked like Sue had been teaching the kid. We gave them some information and a couple of phone numbers and told them to give us a call if they needed anything else. Then out comes sue's boyfriend. He's this HUGE hairy man with no shirt and his warn jeans struggling to stay around his waist. He was really nice :) Well before we leave Sue gave us each bear hugs and asks us to visit her again soon. I think we will :) 

We met with Sabrina a few times as well! We had a movie night and watched The Testaments. Classic! But she wasn't able to come to church again this week so we have to push back her date again. So we're working with it :) Keep praying though!

Ok I've got five minutes!
We haven't been able to get a hold of Jackie yet but we're planning on stopping by soon
I'm too rushed! I can't think of anything else that happened this week. It was great I promise! :) 
Well I love you all! Have a great week!
Love,
Sister Herrin
