I'm healed

Update for this week:

Halle and Chris have moved they're literally like barely out of our zone it's so sad, but hopefully they'll keep progressing!

This week our friend Brandon couldn't come to church because he couldn't find anyone to babysit his duck. Rip.

Also this week we had 17 lessons, 10 of which were with members, and a party for Harry Potter's birthday, so that was fun. We invited other Sisters in our district over for like 30 minutes and I learned a lot from them and also downloaded an app that let's you see all sorts of different Bible versions next to each other, which is cool. The Hermanas (Spanish speaking sisters) that came over brought a true Harry Potter birthday cake, so that was super fun :)

Scripture of the week:

Psalms 23

1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Funny Quotes:

•"I've thought about it and I decided I'm part dinosaur. Hear me out. Because the water that's on the earth now was on the earth at the time of dinosaurs, there's bound to be dinosaur DNA in the water and I drink water, I'm 78% water, so therefore there is dinosaur DNA in me." *a couple days later* "I've been thinking about it and I decided I'm no longer part dinosaur, because evaporation would destroy any dinosaur DNA before it got to me." -Hermana Wies

•"Being a Christian is exciting" -Dino

•"Do you wanna know how to drink icecream?" , "Dead clothes" -a 7yo boy

Fun Fact:

The phrase "nothing to sneeze at" comes from the olden days when, if people were talking and someone got bored or offended, they would put a little bit of snuff on their hand and sniff it and it would make them sneeze. Then whoever they were talking to would get the hint and leave (that is a fun fact from a man named Tim, we met this week, who's an art dealer and lived in China for 30 years)
