Hello my fellas and fellitas! Wow wow WOW what a week. A LOT happened.
Monday: P-day!! I took a fat nap on a church couch and it was marvelous. We had dinner with the Sister Sisters and a new senior couple, the Cardons, that just moved into our complex!! They're from St. George!
Tuesday: We went to the Co-op and saw Beanie again after what felt like AGES (she was in Sweden). HOLY MIRACLE we stopped by one of our yellow dots (interested friends) and right after we prayed that she would be home SHE PULLS UP 
Turns out she was going through it and that's why she canceled last time. Everyone please pray for Taniesha's friend, Cindy who has cancer! And Taniesha that she can figure out motherhood. We stopped by a referral and met Miss May, a woman who when we came over, immediately asked for help with her facebook marketplace! We went right in and helped her figure that out before teaching her about covenants. She is a GEM and said she'll bake us a cake next time.

) so we got to knock around a Grey dot (someone who was taught in the past) and ended up finding 2 cool people! There were ducks everywhereee guys like so many ducks. All sizes and shapes. Just like in the grass and street. The Quarantas came over for apartment checks and had a cute little devotional with us after! It was so nice! We knocked a street in Norcross where we met Meehyang. She opened the door and invited us right in. She is the cutest little Korean lady who sat us down with cake and water. She told us she was baptized at 15 in Korea and still remembers the missionary, Elder Lawrence from Idaho that baptized her. We helped her find him on Facebook! She was astonished. It was so cool to see some light come back to her face. She said she wasn't quite ready to come back to church yet but to stop by every month. She was a sweetie.

We learned a lot about how to unite with not just members, but the entire ward! I'm excited to see where it goes because so far, it's working. We went knocking with a member and we found a lady named Anna. It was so neat to see her go from completely closed off to being super open to listening and meeting with us. Pray for Anna and her daughter who is due to give birth this week!
Friday: The most chopped day of all time because we were trying to weekly plan but at least we got to have dinner with the Dahnekes!!! Baby Milo makes our day every time. We got to build our own kebabs it was so fun!
Saturday: 4 MONTHS AS A MISSIONARY 
The Lawrenceville apartment is apparently haunted so our exchange got canceled... so don't know what's up with that but oh well. We had Aria be a member participating in one of our lessons!!! It was so cool!!! It's especially cool because I got to see her from the near beginning of her conversion!! She is doing so good. We had dinner with the Bluncks! We always have such good conversations with them about the Gospel.

President Dent loves numbers but it's because each number represents a child of God. The most important number to the Lord is ONE. I love Sunday night Mission Leadership Council calls because we have the chance to account to each other about how our zones are doing and how we can help them! Our mission currently has 92 people on date to be baptized. Please pray for each of them!!! We know miracles are possible!
Monday: EXCHANGES WITH WILK IN BERKELY LAKE! What a freaking awesome day to be alive let me tell you. Sister Wilkinson is a flipping powerhouse STLT. We spoke spanish to an awesome family at mcdonalds who was immediately interested (ty gift of tongues) and got their information to send to the hermanas. We knocked into a Vietnamese fella named Jimmy who swore he'd read 2 Nephi 2 before bed (you better Jimmy). We stopped at QT and saw a fella with a cowboy hat on so SURELY we had to talk to him. We learned that his name was James and that he and Angie (wife? mother?) were on the way back from the hospital because his daughter had just had surgery. We read Alma 26:37 with them and they LOVED it. They were so kind and open to listening to us. We had a church tour fall through but it led to us meeting Deno! He was VERY interested and had some really good questions. We invited him to read 3 Nephi 11 but he said he'd rather start from the beginning and we had no problem with that! We had dinner with the bougiest baddie 74 year old member of all time she looks 25 lowk) and had a wonderful conversation about her conversion story 40 years ago. She fed us trader Joe's donuts. God did. We went to a nearby park and saw a lovely couple reading books together on a blanket. (HOW CUTE) Guys... we taught them EVERYTHING. AND I MEAN EVERYTHING 
. They had SO. MANY. QUESTIONS. We didn't have any more copies of the book of mormon so we left them with all three pamphlets. We were sitting on this picnic blanket for AGES. They were pretty firm in their beliefs but they were pretty freaking curious. Ostrich egg sized seed planted. Then we saw a jarro spider the size of a baseball. I love exchanges so much. It's so fun to see other areas!!!!
