Hey Everyone!
Well can you believe I have been gone for 17 months today? I can't. It
seems like it has been forever, but it also seems really fast. It is weird. Well
this has been an interesting week. It has rained A LOT! Also, almost all of
our appointments canceled this week. Tuesday we had a really good lesson with
this guy named Lamont! He was someone who the Elders had been teaching but then
they just stopped and there wasn't a reason so we decided to go visit him. It
took us a while because the apartments they had him listed as living in didn't
come up in the GPS so we had to wait until we drove past them and eventually
found them. He has been taught a lot, he just works a lot so it is a struggle to
get him to church! He thinks his wife will also be interested so if we can teach
her too that will be great! We had district meeting on Wednesday this week and
it was really good. I just love our district! President and sister Fordham drove
us and even got us lunch after! After the meeting Sister Baker wanted a blessing
and I decided I would also get one, I have felt stress about grandma and some
mission decisions that I need some extra guidance on. . It was so cool because
the Elders were goofing around being 18-20 year old guys and then we said we
wanted blessings and they got all serious and there was a big change in their
demeanor and it was just so cute to watch the change when they were called upon
to exercise their priesthood! Then we were driving around after and promptly got
stuck in the mud! It wasn't even a dirt road, we were in the middle of town and
pulled off to park and just hit a mud hole that we got stuck in. Ford Fusions
are not my favorite you can't see out of them and they are not my truck!!
President Fordham called someone to pull us out so that was really nice of him.
Thursday we had a lesson with Bobby and Denise. They are friends of our ward
mission leader who we have been teaching. They are very interesting! I like them
though. Bobby is very talkative and definitely has opinions on things! We just
need to help them understand that this is Christ's church and get that
confirmation from the spirit. They like what we teach them but they need to act
on it! Friday we had MLC. It was really good! President talked all about goals
and how we need to be better at reaching our goals and how he feels like he
hasn't taught us that well enough. He had some really good ideas to start,
mostly just re-teaching things from Preach My Gospel. I think it is really going
to help the mission! Saturday we had an awesome lesson in the morning with a
lady named Chastity. She is really cool and we are excited to teach her! We also
went to a get together with the ladies in the branch of scrapbooking. It was
lots of fun! Sister Ference got this really cool machine that can make almost
anything into a sticker! We took the time to decorate our planners. Then we had
transfer calls at 5 and we are both staying! My last transfer, it's so weird! We
called to tell President Fordham and he was really happy and Sister Fordham was
cheering in the background. It was really funny. Then yesterday we went to Bobby
and Denise's house and got a little tour because they have lots of animals like
horses and chickens and pigs and he found out I have a horse so he wanted to
show me around! They have some very muddy horses whose feet really need trimmed
but they are very nice and I got to love them. They also have donkeys and pigs
and a pig that just had babies! He also gave us 2 dozen eggs so that was great!
Now we don't have to buy eggs. It was a pretty good week! I hope ya'll have a
good week too! Love you!
Love,
Sister Price
