On Tuesday we went and saw Lois she is doing pretty good and is recovering from her foot surgery. We also saw Sister Paten man is she a talker but we sure love her! Then we door knocked a little bit and talked to some cool people.
Wednesday we had our last District meeting of the transfer it was super good we talked about the Book of Mormon. Then we went to Taco Bell for lunch because the Elders wanted to. haha
We also went and saw Carol and Margaret two of our investigators. They are both older ladies who we go and share scriptures with and serve. Then we door knocked in the rain for a while and got drenched so that was kinda fun! After that one of our investigators Rolfe took us to Papa Vinnos this super fancy Italian restaurant. We got there first and the lady sat us down and then took away the wine glasses apparently we don't look like we were 21. ;) He ordered us squid as an appetizer. It wasn't as bad tasting as I thought it was going to be.
Thursday we had a lesson with Joe and Beth and then we Door knocked for a while and we met a lady who was at the funeral we served at a few weeks ago. She remembered us and was super sweet! Then we went and stopped by a potentials home, Her name is Dorris, she is 91 and loves missionaries! She is such a cutie! The first time we met her she told us how much she loved us! And invited us right in. Her friend was a member and the missionaries would go over and help her a lot before she passed away! She has a ton of antiques that she loved to show us! She has the bed that is on Polyanna and some other movies. She also has a big wooden chest from China that has gorgeous engravings in it of boats and the sea. She told us the story about it and we were kinda creeped out. Apparently a preacher went over to China and started a church there and had quite a lot of members. One day these Chinese people brought 3 of these large chest's into the church and gave them to the pastor, and then left. The Pastor then opened them up and they had the heads of the members of his church in them! So he and his family left the heads in China and fled!
Friday we weekly planned while we waited for our transfer calls. Sister Nording is going to Cadillac and I am getting Sister Carroll! I am excited! Then we went to Jimmy Johns for lunch and then volunteered at the Carousel. we had dinner with our ward mission leaders family and then went and saw the Lawrence's and read the Book of Mormon with them!
I am excited for the change but I am sure going to miss Sister Nording! Hope you all have a great week!
Love, Sister Gittins
