Sup. It's cold here in the good old West Virginia. So the winter clothes are out for real!
We had a crazy week, full of ups and downs for me personally. but it twas good!
MONDAY: We had dinner with a super stellar new family in the Teays Valley ward. The Ruffells. It was super fun and it was way good food! (it was all gluten and dairy free too!!) and we taught Cheryl. <3 She is doing awesome btw!
TUESDAY: We had
mormon.org time, and then we went and tried to find a new move in in a trailer park...we couldn't find it. lol. Trailer parks are crazy!! We tried potentials/formers and we ended up meeting two formers: Maggie and James. We had a super spirit filled lesson with them and hard core committed them to giving the Book of Mormon another read! :) It was awesome! Then we went and taught a lady named Melissa. She didn't have much time so we taught her a brief restoration lesson then went on our way. :) We also taught Kim and Jeff about the restoration and it was awesome to hear them so excited to read the book I love so much! We had dinner with Sister Suttle, we actually got to ask her questions this time and get to know her so that was good!
WEDNESDAY: We did some service for the Ruffell family. We helped knock out a wall in their home. IT WAS SO FUN. I really like demoing walls! <3 We tried a whole bunch of potentials and formers in Winfield, but no one really answered. Lame. Then we had dinner and coordination at the Haupts. LOVE THEM!!
THURSDAY: We went to the family history library in Sissionville to help Kim with some family history. It was good! There were two ladies there who were doing family history, but also wanted to bash with me as well...awkward...we were in our church. I just listened and explained my feeling and thoughts, then went on reading my Book of Mormon. Then...we found out Sister Coombs grandma passed away...so that was not fun. We were not in the mood to talk to people then. so we went home, took some time for ourselves and then weekly planned. Sister Coombs is killer and I am so proud of how she has taken this sad event. <3 We had dinner with Sister Surprise at ginos pizza too!
FRIDAY: We had district meeting. Me and Sister Coombs taught about unity and how it affects the work. We also had exchanges. I was with my MTC comp; Sister Stettler. We worked in Hometown and Eleanor. And we ate dinner with the Allisons. They are an awesome family who is doing some amazing missionary work! But exchanges were just what I needed. I've been really overwhelmed and stressed over this area and the things I need to do to help this area out big time here. It was good to just talk it out with her and have her say that she understands and that shes here to help me. And I got to spend some time with Sister Paulson so that was a tender mercy. I love her!!
SATURDAY: We finished exchanges and me and Sister Coombs went to Walmart to help me out. I've got a cold so we got some medicine, and to explain my email title...Sister Coombs snores so we got a fan and some melatonin to help me sleep at night. (because I am exhausted!!!) Then I slept off some of my cold. We also went and saw Sister Slater and had a good lesson with her on hope...her heart is SLOWLY softening.
SUNDAY: We went to church at first ward again so we could have a lesson with Juan. And his lesson was the highlight of my day. <3 Though I have no idea what is happening in the lesson, I know exactly what is going on. It is so cool. Miracles happening for sure. We put him on date for
January 28th too!! We taught Daizy and then we tracted some in Nitro and in Cross Lanes. Met some pretty prepared people...and met some not so prepared as well. But thats missionary work.
Anyways, we have mission tour this week with Elder Foster of the seventy so I'm super pumped about that!! And we have interviews with President. I am excited for the week ahead!! <3
I LOVE YOU ALL TO THE MOON AND BACK!
Sister Schoemig
(Ill send exchange pics next week!)
