Twelve Weeks Already!

Hello!! How are you all?!? Here is the happenings of the last week!
 
1. We went to snow last Monday and then it snowed even MORE this week! Like up in my ward to those that are more up the mountain. CRAZY!
2. Sister Ence and I were given the name of a lady to go visit that is a less active. We go to her house which is in Chinatown and meet this 85 year old lady. She tells us she is the only black lady that lives in Chinatown. It was funny. She is SUPER sweet and hopefully she will be able to come to church next week!
3. We had a church tour and lesson with Brother Monk. Well it went pretty good... he has a few lil' random problems when he reads the Book of Mormon (which he is up to Alma 17) there is also a few other things that he needs to think about but we shall see... BUT I was able to extend that baptismal invitation! I was nervous but it went GREAT!
4. We had a few member meetings which went GREAT! It is so nice to be able to meet with the members and get to build the trust with them. It helps to let them feel comfortable giving us referrals and help us with lessons.
5. I had some different foods this week. We got a traditional rice and chicken (member meal), Armenian dish (crazy nice place that a less active took us), vegan dish (noodle things with this mushroom that looked like an octopus-NASTY!) and Lebanon (ground turkey thing and stuffed grape leaves-YUM!) and poor folk sandwich (at my apartment-knock of turkey and cheese)
6. We got to go to the stake and teach to the youth about the mission rules. My district (2 Armenian elders, the 2 Zone leaders and Sister Ence and I) got to teach 3 groups of kids. We all had a different topic to talk about. We had a scripture on the board that they had a scripture chase to and then 9 different topics on the board that they had to guess which the scripture related too then we discussed it. It went REALLY well! Then the youth went to a leaders home for a sleepover and then the next day...
7. They get to go on a day mission! We got a "mini missionary" for the day. Her name was Rachel Potter... she was SO fun! She really helped and shared experiences and a scripture it was GREAT! I hoped she enjoyed it and learned something :)
8. We had a fireside last night with our gospel essentials class... FUN! It was for those that are recent converts, less active or investigating. He had a part member family we have been working with show up AND a less active!! It was AWESOME!! The Bishop talked for a few then it was a mingle time...
9. Sister Ence and I get to go to a Mexican Market today with two members. SUPER excited! Apparently it is just like Chinatown but Mexican...
10. I am working on letters to those of you who wrote...
 
LOVE YOU ALL!!
