Hellooo everybodyyy!! This week was just one of those weeks where everything was going wrong that it was funny so let's get into it.
So as I said last week, our power was out because of a mild wind storm. Well, it didn't come back on until Wednesday night so we had to drive to Saline every night and stay with those sisters over there. Let's say that I definitely took electricity for granted but man am I grateful for it. That day we decided to make ourselves feel better by going to Olive Garden and it helped a little bit.
On Tuesday something really cool happened. So as we were leaving Saline in the morning, a lady named Margeret started randomly calling us. For a little background, Margaret was supposed to get baptized the first Saturday that Sister Straatman was here but she ghosted the sisters the week of her baptism. So she randomly called us and she was bawling her eyes out saying she wanted to meet with us again so that was the miracle of the week.
On Thursday we went to institute and the course is world religions so they brought in a Lutheran and we learned all about their religion. It was really interesting to learn about it. Now for the story you're probably not even waiting for but here you go. Thursday night after 9 I was putting clothes in my hamper and as I was doing that, I saw a sock in between my dresser and the wall. I bent down to get it and completely smack my forehead on the window seal that is covered up with a blanket so I kinda forgot it was even there. I got a good goose egg and it's still bruised and tender to touch. So I think I'm a little concussed but it's fine.
Friday I got absolutely fried on the back of my neck from street contacting so that was fun.
On Saturday we were doing yard work service and the mosquitos decided to literally feast on my right leg so I've been going absolutely crazy since then.
I don't know what day this story is but we were waiting at a red light and a man carrying a whole sword just ran across the street and I thought I was being punked, only in Michigan.
Last night after we got home I went to check the mail (because Michigan delivers mail on Sundays I guess) and I opened the mailbox the biggest spider of my life was just chillin in there and I think I wanna cry about it just thinking about it.
Anyway, yesterday was fast and testimony meeting and I'm super lucky because I get to go to 2 church meetings. While we were in the YSA ward, the theme of the testimonies was that even though life can be hard, Heavenly Father is always there with us. Even if it feels like He's not, HE IS!! He loves each and every one of us so much!! He just loves us too much to let us stay the same so He makes us go through hard things so that we can grow.
That's all I have for this week!! I love you all so much!!
Trust in the Lord!
Love,
Sister Welch ♡
