Feeding God's sheep

The week of craziness I would say!!! We have been constantly on the go and can't seem to find time for everything we need to get done. But as a missionary that's really good. But exhausting. Today i am very very appreciative to have a pday!!

Something exciting from this week: sister Clifford and I have started running in the mornings sometimes and so we are kind of adventuring and trying to find out good running routes. Well on Tuesday morning we found sheep! They were super nice sheep and we fed them grass. We Look forward to running a lot more now!

Sunday was an adventure. We needed to pick up an investigator so we had to leave our apartment at 7:30 to take Transportation to church and get there at 9:15. Then we went to a members home with the investigator and taught a lesson and had dinner. It's pretty interesting getting investigators to members homes, because half our investigators speak English but a lot of members don't speak English or it's just not the best English. And let me tell you. African English is not normal English. So it's makes for weird adventures every day.

Alright. So cool stories for the week. We met a really cool family while street contacting and where able to give them a Book of Mormon!
I love that feeling. We also met with our 16 year old miracle investigator. She is so cute!!! At the end of our lesson she asked us where she could buy longer skirts at!! (We didn't even mention
anything) she is so cute though and is really trying to pray and read the a book of mormon so she can know if God really is there. She was also commenting about how she feels a little funny praying sometimes because she feels like she is just talking to herself sometimes. I'm so grateful I had the opportunity to grow up in the gospel and have God be such a central part of my life. Sometimes I forget how weird us Mormons really are to the rest of the world. And yes. About a third of the people we talk to it feels like they think we are Amish.

Last funny story. So last week we talked to a 75 year old man who was WAY too interested in me and kept saying weird comments and just really wanted to go dancing with me. Well. We thought we would never see him again. But NO. Halfway through church on Sunday he shows up!!!
At church!!!! It was sooooooo uncomfortable and awkward hahahahahaha.
He wanted to just go in the gym and dance. He then wanted to take me out to eat at a super fancy restaurant and it was very very very awkward. So we hurry and rope the Elders and get them to try and talk to him separately. Yeah. He had no interest in the gospel so he just left. Oh and also. Apparently he thought i was Russian?

Oh yes and one more thing. This week we taught a lesson at the church and had a 95 year old as our member present. She is soooo cute! I highly recommend it. :) Sister Losee


P.s. Today we went to a really cool palace for pday!!! We walked around the grounds and went on an awesome tour!!! Sometimes I really do forget that I'm in Germany.
