This week was pretty fun. We had trade offs Monday to Tuesday night so Sister Cisenarows came to K2 with me and Sister Merriman went to campus with Sister Anderson. Tuesday we went to Loaves and Fishes which was great as always. Then we door knocked a bit and found this older guy who was a Protestant elder. He would not let us go and sat and talked to us about all of these random things for a half hour. So that was super funny. Then we decided that we needed a treat so we went to Culvers and got kids meals which are like the best things ever! :) Then we traded back off. On Wednesday we had district meeting and the Zone Leaders came so that was fun. After that we went to Theo and Stacey's for district lunch. Then we went and door knocked and visited some less actives. We went with the Elders to Ten Ten cause Sister Savage, the lady who takes us, couldn't come so she paid for us and we went:) On Thursday we went door knocking again and while we were door knocking we found a Less Active Member. We were really confused at first cause we door knocked and a guy answered the door and was like Hey Sisters come in from the cold, I'll go get my wife. And we were like what is going on no one is ever this nice. haha So he went and got his wife and she talked to us for a minute and told us that she had been a member for 30 years but hadn't been active for the past 5 cause she was trying to figure out her beliefs. She was super nice. The next door we went to the lady answered and told us she wasn't interested in anything Mormon and that we needed to leave her neighborhood because she didn't wan't her neighbors to get tricked by us. As we were walking away she said "Girls I feel so sorry for you. Your church doesn't teach what Christ would wan't to be taught and Joseph Smith was a liar. She basically told us we were going to Hell and she truly was sorry for us." We just left and were like Wow! how sad. After that we went to the Nelsons for dinner and had a great time. Saturday we had a meeting with our ward mission leader. While we were headed to their house, a house along the side of the road was burning down, the flames were huge. It was pretty cool to see, but sad because it burned to the ground. Our meeting was good and they gave us a Hello Kitty gingerbread house. :) On Saturday we also door knocked to these guys who immediately told us that they were gay. And then proceeded to tell us that they were Atheists because they had read the Bible. haha I did not see that one coming. So on Sunday we went and had a lesson with Abagale and her kids. We built the Gingerbread house with them. We love them so much! They are so cute. Abagale and her kids don't have a lot and yesterday she shared with us how her kids school was doing a fund raiser to help people in the community who didn't have food. She said that her kids took every one of their cans in their cupboards and donated them to the school. Which was so cool cause they don't have a lot but were willing to donate all they had to help others around them. :)
Love Sister Gittins
