Wow I cant believe I've been here for two weeks It has been such an amazing week. Tuesday we went to the temple which is such a beautiful one! Then we went to Chorley and it looked like walked in to a scene out of Pride and Prejudice!On Wednesday all of us 2nd weekers were taken to downtown Manchester for a crash course on street contacting. We were there for two hours and there was an absolute down pour of rain for about 90 of those minutes! I absolutely Loved it! It was such a cool experience we talked to whoever would give Sis Romero and I the time of day haha.
One person who stuck out to me was a girl named Katie she is a student going to school for microbiology somethin somethin. We waited with her until her train came, we talked about rain, life and God. We gave her a pass along card and I've been kicking myself ever since for not giving her a Book of Mormon, after her train came she said good bye and then she was gone.
Sister Romero and I just felt so much unbelievable love for her after wards which was so strange because she was a complete stranger but we are going with it being Heavenly Fathers love for her even thought we didn't teach her everything in those minutes we shared I hope we planted a seed and then maybe one day someone else can help it grow.
That Night Sister Romero and I had the best lesson with out investigator buddy the spirit was so strong it was such an honour to have the holy ghost present even if it was just a mock lesson. I feel so blessed to have Sister Romero as my Compy we've only known each other for 2 weeks now and it's like I've known her all my life she has this thing now where she likes to hangout in my bed I'm not sure why but we are all about bunk bed life there is something so fun about it.
She also showed me her Canadian shirts she has because her love for Canada is so real it's hilarious. we have this thing where we walk every where with linked arms but it's starting to get us into trouble with door ways because we keep smacking each other into them trust me we have the bruises to prove it. Also one of the first things sister Romero told me is that she has never seen snow.. so a morning this week I was eating breakfast and glanced out the window and saw some patches of SNOW!
I grabbed sister Romero told her to close her eyes and follow me I guided her through all the table and missionary's it was kind of a scene of laughing and tripping when we got to the window I told her to open her eyes she was so she started at a minute not understand what she was look at until I sang to her "Do you wanna build a snowman? it doesn't have to be a snow man!" then she screamed and we ran out side and had a snow ball fight.
Another thing that happened last night we taught one of our Investigators Roxanne about the plan of salvation it was such a game changer lesson for me because by the end of the lesson we were all in tears because the spirit had been so strong I have loved being able to have spiritual experiences so often it has helped grow my testimony in so many ways I just feel so thankful!
There is so much that has happened this week so many amazing devotionals so many fits of laughter so much rain, snow and hail! so many powerful moments I have absolutely loved every second here I cant believe I leave in one week!
