This week was full!
Tuesday we spent the day finding service opportunities! We are now helping at the library in Portland every Thursday from 11 to about 2 ish. Hopefully we will be able to soften the hearts of the people of Portland! The library here is basically the place to hang out so that's awesome!
Wednesday we had Sister Giles with us because her comp had to go to a doctors appointment in Grand Rapids. Door knocking. Personal contacting. All that good stuff. Then we met with Gill! It was a good lesson. He needs to develop more faith. He finds it hard to believe when he's had such an awful life.
The Stevensons came back on Thursday!!!! YAY! We started our library service. We weeded a little garden out back and sorted non-fiction books. Then we drove out to see Lillian. She loves us coming over but she says that she feels like she wants to stay in her church. And now we've finally gotten her a large-print Book of Mormon! We'll see what happens.
On Saturday we had the "Portland Pioneer Potluck Picnic"!! And it was super fun! :) We had one of Forrest's biker buds Hillbilly join us!
We had lots of fun tracting stories this week:
a)this guy who was making an ice-box and a table to go with some chairs they'd just bought at a yard sale across the street.
b) This other guy who is studying to be an aviation missionary. Had a good long talk about that.
c) There was a black cat who followed us 3 doors. That was fun!
That is about it for this week! Transfer calls are on Friday and we are excited to see what happens! Sister Cottle is the best! I hope we get to stay together but if not then we know we were needed some where else. I am so grateful for this church and the blessings it brings into my life! :)
Love you all and hope you have a great week!
