Well..another week in the bag!
Guess what ya'll?
..................WE FOUND AN INVESTIGATOR!!
It is about stinkin' time!
Her name is Sarah. She is a single mom (divorced).
She has a 71/2 year old boy. We were in the Elder's
neighborhood contacting a potential. We pulled up
on our bikes across the parking lot, and I noticed
her staring us down. Obviously, we stand out, 2
white girls, in skirts, riding bikes.. So, my policy is..
if someone is going to stare, then they get to hear
about the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ (:
We de-helmet ourselves, and walk over to her.
She was walking her black lab puppy, Miracle.
We start talking to her, and she tells us that she
had a really good friend in college who was Mormon,
who left on his mission! She was excited to talk to us!
We talked to her for a good 30 minutes. She told us
to come back the next night. So..we did! She completely
unloaded all of her life story on us. She has had a really
rough life. She was so excited to learn more about how
our message could help her! We went over the next night,
again! We started to teach her about the Restoration,
but then she had questions about where we go after this
life. BOOM. PLAN OF SALVATION. She loved that
everyone gets another chance! (Spirit World) We told her
that we would talk more about the Plan of Salvation once
we talked more about how we know this to be true (Restoration).
She is SOLID. We had an appointment with her last night,
but she was under the weather and on anti-biotics for an
infection she got in her finger. #gross haha. We're going back
this week. We will be inviting her to be baptized, and extending
a date! August 22 (: We have faith that she will accept!
I'm excited to update you further on Sarah!
Funny story for the week..
Sister Stolworthy wrecked on her bike...again.
It's now a joke of how her bike is out to get her. hahaha.
Poor thing.
Welp.
Until next week..
Picture 1:This is when we had to climb up to the Elder's balcony
to protect our precious cargo. #gangster
Picture 2:I had to jimmy our water-heater closet open. We always
hear a small animal scurrying around in there, and we wanted to find
out what it was. Yes, I was using my Leatherman..thank you dad!
Picture 3: This is a turtle who has a death wish.
Picture 4: I had to get out and move him. Can't do that in Utah!
Would have gotten fined. hahaha
I love you tons!
Have a great week, and watch for miracles!
Love, Sister Brinkerhoff
