Emailed--Not Stirred -- Mar 5

And thus we see... snow.

It was kinda weird how it happened too.

But first! I want to say how cool the last Sunday here was! Instead of regular sacrament mtg, we had a MULTI-STAKE-BROADCAST!!!!! And PRESIDENT RUSSEL M. NELSON SPOKE!!!!! So that was slightly awesome. He talked about the Book of Mormon and how through daily study and prayer it can bless our lives and the lives of people around us! And I promise that I have been seeing that here with all of the people we go visit. As soon as they start reading the Book of Mormon, they always get happier and their family gets closer, and (usually) they smile more!

But anyway. Tuesday through Friday, we spent catching up on previous people the Sisters were (kinda) working with back in 2016ish times. Most of the people we met still seemed like they didn't want it, but we would still offer them help and (eternal) happiness. Also we had a great lesson with a 9 turning 10 yr old, his family is baptized but SUPER in-active, so we are hoping that as we teach the whole family and he gets baptized, that they follow suit and get active. 

On Friday it started snowing. The wind and the clouds had been threatening it all week, but this time it got serious. It snowed all Friday night and in the morning too. Then around 10 it stopped and melted. By the end of Friday all the snow was gone. Then we woke up Saturday morning to even more snow than Friday!! So we grabbed our shovels and went out around 10am and shoveled driveways of some of the people we had been working with / trying to get to know. And right in the middle of doing one driveway, out of the house came one of the people who we could never seem to "find a good time to come over". He invited us inside gave us hot chocolate, and we finally got to know him! In the summer he is going to be converting a mobile home he has into a food truck!

Then on Sunday we had another great lesson with Barbra (foreign exchange student) about the Plan of Salvation! That went great because without fail we would start explaining something, she would ask a question, and the next sentence we said would answer her question! That was awesome, and we got cookies afterward so that's great too!

Anyway, everything else is great here! And thankfully we are in an area where people know how to drive!
