What a wonderful week!
I might as well hit you with the best news of the week... which by this time you already know. I was able to go back to Kent to be at Sean and Lisa Brandenburg's baptism! :) What an incredible day. Seriously. I got to sing a song I wrote for them. And then Sean bore his testimony of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon. It seriously was incredible. It was a testimony to me of how true the Gospel of Jesus Christ is and how it has been restored. They radiated the joy that comes from following Christ's example. They have so much to look forward to on their journey and I'm excited to be able to see (or hear) about it. :) So great.
The rain came back for a little bit this week. It foreshadowed the rest of my mission post-August. -__- So looking forward to it. Haha!
We had interviews with President Eaton and Sister Eaton. They are the best.
After grabbing some food from some wedding reception, we were driving home and saw a little kid literally in the middle of the road. Walking on the yellow line as cars were whizzing by him. We pulled over in the nearest open spot... which happened to be a fire station and ran out to go get him. Luring him in with a cupcake. We though he might have some mental disabilities, but we're not sure. Apparently, he and his mom got in a fight and she left him somewhere to walk home. The fire fighters came out and took him home. Feels good doing good.
It was Sister Sonasi's birthday yesterday. Happy Birthday to her! :) All I could really do was put up some birthday signs at 5:45 AM. Haha:) But it worked. Not to mention a member in our ward Jeremy made her a gourmet cake.
We had some funny times contacting people this week. We were talking to these two guys in their garage and they were pulling out jokes about everything. These 50-year-old-harley-bike-
We're working on Sister Sonasi's reactions to people. Some lady was pointing and laughing at us through the window of her car and Sister Sonasi kinda shouted "BOO!" at her... yeah, working on it. She said it just came out. Haha! She's great.
Sooo. The newspaper article with me and Sister Webb in it came out! It's part 1 of 3.
I have one correction to make to it... my parents are practicing Mormons. Haha. I think he got confused and meant to say I'm the only practicing of my siblings. Haha:)
Check it out! :)
We are still working with Joe and Caleb. If all goes as planned Caleb will be baptized this Saturday and then Joe next Saturday. They are seriously the best. Joe's already living it up at the single's activities haha:) It's so great to see people so excited to follow Christ. And seeing the impact in their lives as they follow God's commandments and gain a testimony of the Restoration of the Gospel.
This is the last Prep Day before transfers next Tuesday. My bet is both Sister Sonasi and I will be staying here together for at least one more transfer. I only have 4 more after this one is done so we shall see what my mission future holds.
Have I sent this one already? Welp, sorry if I have. It talks about missionaries. A lot about foreign ones, but it applies to us team USA missionaries as well. My country is Washington. Haha;P
Until next time I'll be doing it the Federal Way.
Much love,
Sister Pearson :)
