Tuesday
we had District Council and interviews with President Call. It was great to
meet with President Call for an interview. It had been a while since I had one
with him but we had a good chat about my studies of the scriptures and of
Christ. For District Council we had one of our ward mission leaders come and he
helped us practice talking to people in person.
Wednesday
we ran some errands in the morning including going to the mission office for
mail which was good. In the afternoon we did some service walking some dogs
which was a lot fun. While walking we discovered some other sisters in the district
were also walking a dog and so we went and "ran" into them which was
pretty funny. Their dog was probably a fourth the size of the dog I was walking
(who we affectionately called Burnt Sausage) but yipped and tried to bite her
anyways (see pure evil picture).
Thursday
we went on exchanges. We ended up calling a bunch of people. I got my first
driving violation which was pretty funny. There was a storm drain divot that
went across the entire road and I drove over it at 7mph (I watched the
speedometer) and still bottomed out the car because the dip was so big. We have
devices on our car that monitor our driving but because I had bottomed out it
thought I was driving very aggressively. Oh well.
Friday
we had service for a 3 or so hours helping someone move which was a lot of work
and was a party. Fortunately they had put their stuff in a storage unit
(because we can't do service inside) so we were able to help move that to the
new house and unload stuff into their garage. We were supposed to go on exchanges
with the Zone Leaders but they cancelled because one of their roommates got
tested for covid (came back negative from what I heard).
Saturday
we did lots of planning and calling people. We also visited some people with
one of our ward mission leaders which was good to be outside and be able to
hang out with him. It was a really nice day outside. We also delivered Fiiz and
people's favorite candy to the district in the evening. We rang the doorbells
and ran away which was fun even though they knew it was us.
Sunday
was lots of meetings and church. We also had a Q&A with the youth in our
area which was fun. We lost track of time so the zoom meeting expired when we
weren't expecting it to which was a little awkward but really funny.
Miracle
of the Week: While planning District Council I knew what I wanted to do and
that I wanted one of the ward mission leaders to come to help out. The whole
week I felt like I didn't need to talk to him and then the Sunday evening
before I asked and he wasn't sure. However, his schedule changed last minute so
he was able to join us and gave some super helpful insights and feedback to us.
