Serving in St. Louis: #HUGLYFE

What's gooooood?

This week went by so fast idk what even happened lol... it was a good week though!

Weekly highlights:

1. laundry4dayz: we helped Bernice (recent convert) do laundry while we studied the temple book haha she had all these clothes in storage so it took literally like 3 hours to do all her laundry. It was crazyyy. We were all so tired after because she lives on the second floor so we had to carry all the laundry up to her apartment after washing it #workout4life

2. Primary goes wild: so all the primary leaders except two were gone so they asked us to help out in primary. Sister Peel and I did sharing time and you know you've done a bad job when the kids can't even remember what you talked about 5 minutes later hashtag fail. But you shoulda seen the elders do singing time. Idk which was funnier. Afterwards I was like dude I need a nap stat lol so much more respect for all you primary leaders out there🙌

Teaching:

1. Sherri: she is one of our investigator's and she's in her 70's probably. We were talking about the restoration with her but she kept asking random questions but then she asked why it's important that we follow ONE path if we're all going to heaven anyway. So we read 2 Nephi 31:5 and talked about following Christ's example and being baptized. She said that when she comes to know that everything is true that she will get baptized! Yay! It was super cool because we really had to listen to her in that lesson to know what her concerns were.

2. Nici and Lina: we taught the restoration and it was so good! They KNOW this is true. They will be baptized. It's just a matter of time! They just need some major loving into this church which they will get. They're so awesome and have been so prepared. The whole time we were teaching, you could just see the Spirit working and everything was clicking with them. So so so cool.

3. Stephen: he finna get dunked on Saturday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Get pumped get pumped! He's so precious. We got his baptism plans all made and he's ready to go! He always talks about how he wants to be a missionary and he will be such a good missionary one day :) He reminds me sooo much of Brett. His favorite basketball player is Steph Curry and he and Brett just have the same personalities. I found the Illinois version of Brett ;)

That's about it for the week! It was super good and this week will be so fun, too. We get to have Zone Conference tomorrow which we are pumped about!

I hope you are all getting excited for General Conference! I've been reading a talk a day to prepare and you should too :) There are so many good ones.

I love you all and hope you have a great week!
