Miracle City & ASL Land (week 4)

 What's up everybodyyy! Hope everyone is doing good!!!

MIRACLE ALERT... we were at church a couple weeks ago and this guy we've never seen before just walked in and sat down. We went and talked to him and his sister is a member and he went to church one time with her and LOVED the spirit he felt there so she gave him the address to our church in Seattle! We straight up asked him on the spot if we could teach him and he was like yes please. This week we were able to have our first lesson with him and HOLY. It was amazing. It was suuuper natural and more of a discussion than anything. His name is Micah and he is so ready to receive the gospel in his life!!!!! We felt like we should invite a certain member of the ward to this lesson and that was 100% inspired because they connected SO well. It was crazy. Probably best friends for life after that. Anyways, wish you all could've been there because it was incredible.
Something else that is kinda fun that happened this week was exchanges with the ASL Sisters. They are the only sisters, other than me and my companion, that serve in Seattle. I've been learning a little bit of sign language here which has been a blast!! I was able to have a very basic conversation with some of the deaf people we worked with that day and it was so much fun!!!! Hopefully I'll be able to keep signing!
HIGHLIGHTS
- Our apartment was SO hot so I slept on the floor by the fan with ice packs
- Saw a witch just walking around. Hat and everything
- Almost went to urgent care for my companion... everythings good now
- Ken Jennings is in my ward... the Jeopardy guy. Hes cool
- Gas works park... ITS BEAUTIFUL you can see the whole city!!!

I read the conference talk "Spiritual Eclipse" from October 2017 Conference this week! It talks about looking at challenges through the lens of the gospel. Sooooo good. Go give it a read:)
JESUS LOVES YOU

  Hiii everyone !! This was a super crazy week.... we had transfers and I got transferred out of mount vernon:( I was so sad to leave because I had only been there for 6 weeks but I had a really cool experience that testified to me that I did what the Lord needed me to do there. I'm so grateful for my time there and all the amazing people I met Nowwww I'm in ANACORTES !!!! YOU GUYS it is the most beautiful place... holy. The pictures dont do it justice. Come visit and see for yourself, you wont regret it. I live about 3 minutes from the ferry terminal and am over all the san juan island branches as well!! We have an apartment on the islands so we get to go out and stay a couple days there at a time. I feel so grateful to be serving the Lord here. My comp is Sister Boris and she is awesome. Shes from Texas and a triplet!! We are whitewashing again which is exciting but also stressful. Definitely takes a lot of time to adjust and meet everyone but its getting better!! HIGHLIGHTS ...
