Awesome times in Walmart

This week was awesome! My mom's hairdresser's family lives up here and they dropped by HOMEMADE biscuits and tomato soup on a rainy and gloomy day this week and it was AMAZING!

This week was in like the 60's! Having grown up in Arizona, if it's under 85, it might as well be zero because I am freezing! My companions are from Utah so they are used to it! We walk into a house and they are both wearing short sleeve shirts and I'm wearing long sleeves and a jacket and people scratch their heads and wonder what's going on and one of my companions will say "he's from Arizona" and they say "oh!" and completely understand... and laugh.

We did exchanges with some English missionaries. I went with Elder Saunders. We knocked on a door of a gentleman that hasn't been to church in years and asked if he'd come to church and he said yes... That was miraculously simple. Then as we were walking, we went into a gas station to buy some drinks and the clerk just gave it to us! He said he served in Tucson, Arizona!

The Benitas family came to church again! I will have to get a picture with them because they are great! It's so awesome talking to them! We get along so well!

One day this week, my companion was going to get a haircut, but the barber was out to lunch. So my companion remembered that he needed to go to walmart and get some cash back so that he could pay for a haircut and so off we went to walmart! We walked in and a lady ran up and asked if we could come teach her. We got her info. Then when we were paying for our groceries, a woman rushed up and paid for all of it! She said that she has a son serving, and is hoping that someone will offer to buy his groceries! That really is a BIG deal to us and means a LOT when someone is willing to buy our groceries! Then, when we were leaving, a man walked up and asked how he could start getting the lessons from us!

Two referrals and an awesome member from a 15 minute trip to walmart!

It was a great week!
