Week 37

Hey family! This week has been pretty good! I don't have tons to update on and the library is closed....so I'm just sending a short email today!




The most interesting thing that happened is probably Sunday. We were sitting in church and all of the fire alarms started to go off. Well that was quite a big shocker. We all sat there for a second, then people were running down the halls and someone in our class was like, "uhhh I think we should evacuate the building!" So we all started heading for the doors. The fire department showed up next. Come to find out, there was a two year old who had decided to pull the alarm. Ha ha it was a pretty interesting Sunday.




The final thing I want to mention is a lesson we had Sunday evening. We had set up a time to go by the Hinkles house again. So we showed up and it was the most amazing lesson. (Brother hinkle is the one who had faithfully attended church with his wife for the past 20 years, but is not a member). So when we were planning for his lesson we really had no idea what we see going to say, so we planned as best we could, then just figured that we would have to rely on the spirit. The hinkles are moving and this was our last time that we would be able to see them. Today brother hinkle told us that in 20 years we were the only missionaries who had been able to get through to him. He thanked us and told how much of a difference we had made and that we shouldn't

worry about him because he was going to start reading the scriptures every day and that he would study them instead of just reading them.




By the time the lesson ended I wasn't sure if I wanted to laugh or cry. The spirit was so strong by the end and I knew that if I wasn't able to attend his baptism while I was on my mission, then I would come back to see it where ever I was. I told him as such and he and his wife about started crying. They are such a sweet family, he'll get baptized someday. He has a testimony, he just doesn't realize it, but he'll get baptized.




Anywho...that's about it for the week! Love you all!
