The Elders who took our car brought us 3 toy cars to try and make up for it. This picture represents how sad I was to see my second car be taken.
Good Morning Everyone!
So....this week has been a roller coaster week! First off, we did not get to teach one of our investigators this week. They either cancelled or we were not able to get in contact with them. :( That's okay though, we will work extra hard this week to meet with them at least once, if not more. We have spent this week trying to find new people to teach through different approaches. We tried rake tracting by going through the neighborhoods and raking up people's leaves. We haven't seen any success from that yet but I am hoping that they at least looked at Mormon.org since we left a card on the door. It is definitely difficult to find here in Fishers. For those who do not know much about Fishers, aka probably all of you..., it is a more well off area. Many of the neighborhoods are no soliciting so even if we wanted to, we can't tract. Since it is a more rich area, everyone is super busy with work, school, or kids. Most everyone has a church they are "satisfied" with. It is great! I seriously love the work here! It was a slow week, slower than usual, but that has just made me so much more motivated to hasten the work!!!!!
Another thing that happened this week that relates to the title of this email is.....wait for it.....they took away our car again! Yep that's right, we are now sharing the car with the other sisters again. For all of those counting along at home, this is the 3rd time that this has happened. This time it's a little trickier though because we just barely split the area with the Elders and we are in the part farthest away from our apartment. So we are trying to figure out how to actually get into our area each day, without having to spend the whole time actually traveling into our area. Luckily the other sisters are teaching a lot of people in the apartment complex, so if we need the car while they are in a lesson with one of those investigators we can take it. Maybe this is exactly what we need to get the work moving in Fishers...maybe not...we will see. They told us we would get a new car in 2-3 weeks so it won't be too bad. Just pray that winter comes after we get the car! That's what we are doing!
This week we had an awesome service project in Indy with our zone. It was through this Community Outreach Program and we went around this neighborhood cleaning the garbage off the streets and pulling weeds. We did this Saturday morning and it was awesome!!!!! I love serving people! The weather was rainy and cold but to me, that made it so much better! It was definitely a highlight of my week! If you all want to see more about it and see some pictures from it, they will be uploaded onto the facebook page for our mission today! For those of you who do not know about our missions FB page, it is www.facebook.com/indymission ! At least that's what I think it it.... hehehe! Go and like it!
Service in Crossroads on Saturday!
Anyways, it's been a good week and I have learned a lot. I would love to hear about all of your lives as well! My address is still the same and I LOVE getting mail from you! But mostly, I just love you all!
