July 27, 2015 Fish Fry and Fantastic Lessons

 

 

This week has been pretty good. Feels like it flew by, but like it was super long, lol. Crazy how that works.

Monday we went to Panama City Beach! We ate at "Panda" then we went to this place called the "Pepper Place." They sell a ton of hot sauce. The Elders asked us if we wanted to become a man? We were like...ahhh?... I don't know, haha.... but guess what? We totes became a "man".  They have this hot sauce that was apparently super hot, Haha..... the Elders were like "Oh, it will make your mouth burn, you wont be able to breath" we tried it.. not that hot, haha... It was hot but it wasn't as bad... it was pretty good actually. I think since I grew up kind of eating hot stuff it didn't burn as bad, lol.. Me and my companion were like "Really this isn't even that hot." lol... Granted, I didn't get very much... but my companion did and she said it wasn't that bad... It did make one of the Elders cry though lol.. We got a video of all of this. Wish I could send it, lol..

So, the beach was beautiful. I have been so lucky to have served by the water my whole mission. I love it so much!  I have been very blessed to serve with some amazing missionaries.

Tuesday we had a good district meeting. We kind of had a party after with Krey-Z Cones and whip cream...... lol.. We put the whip cream on our arms and hit it and tried to catch it in our mouths.. lol... funnier than it sounds haha... We then did some service with helping the Young Women's President set up for a YW thing. We had a great dinner with some returning members, who I love dearly. They are just a great family!They are working towards going to the temple as soon as they can.

Wednesday we tried to visit some people and saw some other people. We did a cool lesson at scripture study that night. We talked about the pioneers, it was pretty good. We had such good stuff to share.

Thursday we did weekly planning and tried some referrals. We had dinner with L's. They are just a wonderful family. Half of their family is in the ward. I have decided I will just have to marry into that family some day... lol ;)

Friday we contacted some referrals. We have been getting so many, which has been great! We had our ward Pioneer Day party, that was fun.. stick pull hurts.... lol. We did get a new sister,she is awesome her name is Sister Stevens. :)

Saturday, we helped clean the church, then we had a fantastic lesson with R. She just is doing so well. I am so proud of her and how much she has opened her heart. We read about Nephi and his brothers going to get the plates. That was really good. She even read the Book of Mormon by herself! She is doing so great! We feel that she is one of the reasons why we are here in this area. We tried some more referrals.. and then had our correlation meeting. Then we went to a fish fry wedding reception.  It was mostly a fish fry. That was so fun! This family is the same family I was talking about before.. the Laster's, Davis, Mack's, Gold's, they are all related. I sure love them!

Sunday we had some wonderful lessons at church. We had a great dinner with some awesome members and we saw one of our less actives/gators. It was pretty good!
Well, family and friends, I sure love y'all. Hope you have a wonderful week!

Love, Sister Hannah Seegrist
