So we got back from our p-day hike! It was the coolest hike ever! Pictures are attached. But it was filled with waterfalls and it was so green it is ridiculous!!
So this week was a hard week everyone cancelled on us so we had to do a lot of tracting and lots of knocking on doors hoping people would answer and no one did. But we still taught a lot of lessons so that was still good. The hardest part of the week was Thursday absolutely no one answered their door. And it was raining all day and so we were riding our bikes through the rain all over our area. It was the longest day of my mission so far. It was hard to keep going that day.
So we visit this less-active guy and he is going through a hard time right now his wife is planning on kicking him out of the house he can't find a job anywhere and it is just going downhill for him but we stopped by to visit him one night and we had a good discussion about trials and why we go through them and the spirit was so strong and after all he could say was "thank you for always bringing the spirit into my home." It was the coolest moment ever!
The funny story of the week is our stake president called us and asked if we could help him do service for a les-active lady. So we went with him and we walk into her back yard and we see this giant inflatable swimming pool filled with this black water! And she said she wants us to drain it and also get all the dead squirrels out of it! She said squirrels will run along the side fall in and then couldn't get out. So we start fishing for squirrels we pulled out about 12 dead squirrels!!!! The first thing that came to my mind is that me and brad have been trying to kill squirrels the wrong way at home! But ya it was the grossest thing but also one of the most fun things ever!!
The Pictures are from our hike and my mom sent me Brentwood Cherries!!!
