Hellooooo

Okay listen to this week. So Monday was pretty much a normal P Day. But then Tuesday we had to get up at 4:45 to catch a train to Leeds. I said goodbye to Sister Lundahl with misty eyes. Then me and 3 other sisters drove to the chapel to pick up our greenies!! My new companion's name is Sister Pinther from Rupert Idaho and she's hilarious!! We get along so well. It's kind of scary how alike we are to be honest. We quote movies constantly. We have a lot of fun.

We spent basically the whole day in Leeds and then we caught a train back to Hull. 3 minutes after we left the train station, the TRAIN BREAKS DOWN. So we were delayed like 45 minutes and we missed the last bus back to Grimsby. So we caught a bus to Scunthorpe and stayed the night with the Sisters there. But I'm pretty sure that was supposed to happen because one of the sisters there was one of the sisters who started teaching Michael! So we spent a long time talking about him and what we can do to help him.

Then the next morning we had to run for a bus with all of Sister Pinther's luggage to make it to District Meeting on time. (Our district leader is now in Scunthorpe instead of Grimsby) Then we FINALLY got to Grimsby Wednesday afternoon. We went and saw Lisa and taught her about the word of wisdom. She was a bit hesitant about it but she said she would try it out. We also met her boyfriend. He's a nice guy. Pretty much all day Sister Pinther had the privilege of meeting the people of Grimsby which is always a hoot. She's handling it really well. Haha. But for real, I'm so impressed with her. She is holding up so well and she is so willing to do what is asked and, though I can see it is hard for her, she doesn't let it affect her work. She's a golden trainee!

Then we had to have a plumber come and see why a leak is coming from our flat into the flat under us and we ended up teaching him the gospel so that was exciting. He texted us later and thanked us for the chat and appreciated what we are doing to impact other people's lives. Unfortunately he isn't in our area so we can't continue to teach him. But he will get picked up by other missionaries. :) Heavenly Father works in mysterious ways.

We also met this guy named Mark on the street. We asked how he was and he told us his whole life story (a common thing to happen here) and then he invited us for a cup of coffee and we told him we don't drink coffee so he said "well I have a whole bunch of tea as well" so we told him we don't drink tea either and he was like "what do you guys drink?!" As if tea and coffee are the only beverages to exist. At the end of our conversation, he said "have a good night!" And gave us both a big hug and we just sat there staring at each other, not hugging him back. It was fun.

Anyway, that was my week. I hope you all had fun weeks and that you have a fun one this coming week as well!! 

Love you all! xx
