This past week was a whirlwind! I can't even remember everything that happened! We took a lot of pictures though!
This past week we helped out at the Grisso again for the Ghost Tours. Sister Burley and I just pass out cookies at the end of the tour. When we first got there every one was still in the tour so Sister Burley and I decided to practice teaching each other while we were waiting. Once everyone started coming we stopped and started talking with people. We met this cute lady named Lynn and her family. She was so impressed with us and told us, "I could talk to yall all night." Unfortunately she said she had to go and started to walk away. Inside I was thinking "no, she can't leave." So we blurted out right before she left, "Can we come over sometime to talk with you more?" And she said "absolutely! And gave us her number! It was a miracle!!!!! I know we had this little tender mercy because we role played and followed President's counsel about teaching more!
Both Sister Burley and I got cards from our grandmas for Halloween with some money to get a little treat! We LOVE Braums! Thanks to my Mom, Family, and Sister for sending Halloween goodies as well :)
The Fall Social! We were in charge of planning the activity and such. Luckily we had Sister Beiber help us! She did such a fantastic job! It was so much fun! The Elders and Brother Beiber even did a spook alley and it was fantastic! The kids all LOVED it!
Some members in the ward!!
Our back seat friends! We were trying to be them
Another miracle we had this past week! We were out inviting people to the fall social and we saw this guy sitting on his couch on the porch. We walk over and invite him to the party and then he says, "Can I have that pamphlet?" (We had a Restoration pamphlet in our hand with the flyers to the party). We then started talking with him about the gospel and set up an appointment to come back! We went back the next day and his brother said he was in the shower. We thought it was just an excuse but we remembered we had a missed call from an unknown number. We called the number back and it was Chad! The guy we were suppose to meet with. He asked if we were still coming by today! (He remembered) So we told him what his brother said and that we could be back over in just a couple minutes. We then taught him the Restoration and are going back again later this week!
Another amazing week being in the service of God! I love being a missionary! And I love this gospel! How blessed we are to be able to share it with those around us!! Have a blessed week!
All my love,
Sister Jackson
