Week 19

The snow has returned! Therefore, another short entry this week. Which y'all are probably grateful for, after the monster entry last week :)
I'll be brief.
Monday: We played Whiffle Ball as a district, and I embarrassed myself less than I expected to. Let's just say next time we should play basketball instead!
Tuesday: Woke up sore from playing Whiffle Ball. I should probably exercise better. We had some really good lessons today. We had two lessons where members came, which was great. We love it when we can have members come, and it has been one of Sister Reed's and my goals to involve the members more.
Wednesday: A member in the ward here is a certified Zumba instructor, and she's starting a class, so we went to Zumba this morning! It was a lot of fun. But once again, probably should exercise a little more... Sister Reed and I felt like sore old women when we woke up the next day!
It was transfers on Wednesday, so we didn't have district meeting, which meant that we had extra time in the morning. So, we went and tried to contact less actives. And we met the most anti-Mormon lady I've yet to meet! She's the less active member's wife, and she does NOT like Mormons. But we tried to be very polite. I bore my testimony, and we left before there was too much contention.
Thursday: It was a pretty normal day. Lessons. We did weekly planning today instead of Friday, because on...
Friday: We had District Meeting. Met the new members of the district. Every other companionship in the district got someone new, so we played a "how well do you know your companion" game. Sister Reed and I definitely won. We taught the conspiracy theorist less active member, and had a crazy, crazy lesson at another less active member's home.
But! After the crazy lessons, we had a wonderful lesson where a member family invited one of their friends to dinner and also invited the missionaries. It was great! We read the Living Christ and bore testimony of our Savior.
Saturday: We had a great Saturday. Five lessons, and they went really well.
Ah! Time's running out!  Sister Reed had a cold, very much running nose :)
Sunday: Three investigators came to church: Edna, and two young women. Yay! There was SNOW though after church, so we drove very slooowly home.
Love you all! Missions are the best! Snow's the worst!
