May 25, 2015 Memorial Day Celebrations!

 

 

Hey everyone!

 This week feels like it was super long but flew by! I hope you all are having a nice Memorial day! It is a big deal here because of the huge military influence. Its really cool! We had a wonderful week here in Navarre! So many great lessons. 

 Monday we got to visit with a member who came to a lesson with us. We went over our lesson plans. She taught seminary, she is pretty smart. She is just barely prego. Super cute! 

So on Tuesday we had a district meeting. The Zone Leaders came.. We just learned how to be better missionaries,  ya'll know the usual.. We got to have lunch with he Gulf Breeze sisters. I FREAKING LOVE THOSE SISTERS! We then got to see Jennifer. We shared some AWESOME Mormon messages with her. She started crying during one of the ones we watched with her. We defiantly could feel the spirit when we were there. It is crazy how in just a short lesson the spirit can still be there. We watched the Mormon message. " Ya never know" It is a really good one. Y'all should watch it. We got to see the R's as well. We read out of the Book Of Mormon with them. I love those guys! They make us laugh all the time. Seriously some of the funniest people I have ever met. Haha when y'all come back to visit Florida, I will let you meet them. I washed Sister Kirton's hair in the sink. Haha that was so funny! We have a good time together.. We also as we were laying down about to fall asleep decided to write missionary words to "Jar of Hearts" Haha... it was priceless! Haha..... 

Wed we did some service. We invited this kid that works at the thrift store with us to Basketball. He didn't come this week but it was graduation so hopefully he comes next week. He is about 18, we just felt that we really needed to talk to him. He said he really loves basketball so we are really hoping he comes! I think he would really have a great time. After service a member paid for us to go to " All American Heroes." Man that place is so good.  She allows us to go there once a month. They have some delish subs! We then had a great lesson with B.  He WANTS TO GET BAPTIZED!! So we talked about obedience and praying often. We told him to pray about baptism. He said he wants to do it. He just wants to wait for his wife to get home. She is deployed in Korea at the moment. She doesn't get home until January. She is taking lessons over there and wants to get baptized as well, but they want to do it together. We are going to mention the awesome opportunity he could have if he would get baptized first then, baptize her. We will see what happens. He is just so prepared and ready for Gospel. 

So this week we got to do a lot more service again. We went and helped L. with some house work, that was fun~ folding socks! haha :) We got to see F. and M. They really are the cutest girls!  We love them! Sadly, They have to start meeting with the Milton missionaries because their dad is moving there. We are going to miss meeting with them! Then we went and brought cupcakes to some members! :) 

Thursday we tried to see a less active, but she was sick.  We did some more service for a member who is moving. We had dinner with a member. They have some adorable kids!  The kids were like we have blackberry bushes. So they took us out to look at them.. They were in the woods.. so when we went outside it wasn't raining to bad. but then when we got into the woods it started POURING! Y'all know me.. I love the rain.. we may or may have not came back inside soaking wet.  It was so worth it though. The blackberries were delish. ;) We then showed up to Correlation meeting all wet. Oh well.. hahaha.. The weather ended up getting pretty bad. Our District Leader texted us and told us to go inside. There was some CRAZY LIGHTING AND THUNDER!  

Friday we got to see M. and D. Those were both good to see. We saw J. again and had dinner with some members. Then  we played some volleyball, no one really came... one dude.

Saturday we went and help some new members move into our ward. That was fun! I saw a turtle. We helped clean the church... and had dinner with some other members. Then to basketball. Pretty fun!

Sunday we had a great day at church! Three investigators came! :) B. D. and F. :) We had to finish some planning. Then we had dinner with some more members, the members here are so awesome! Great Ward here.. 

Well today we are heading to Pensacola.. :) Hope y'all have a HAPPY MONDAY! I Love y'all!!!
