Sister Karissa Jacob: Week 12 - Church Invitations, Phase 10, Uno, and Saving Souls

Howdy Family and Friends!

Well this week was a pretty good week! It was a lot of fun! Even if
Sister Wright and I did get sick, but that's okay because we still had
a pretty awesome week!

The week was going pretty good. Pday we just spent the day with the
other missionaries in our district. We golfed and tried to go to a
trampoline place, but they got something against missionaries because
it's closed every Monday for construction until October. So that was
pretty sad.

We just did a lot of visiting throughout the week. I wasn't feeling
too great on Tuesday! I had a terrible headache and so I took some
medicine for it and it didn't help at all. So i rested for a little
while which sucked! We didn't do anything the rest of the day! I was
so upset, but Sister Wright was good support! She's so awesome!

Then the rest of the week Sister Wright got sick and had like a
stomach thing going on. It was super sad. So we didn't go out too
much. The times that we did go out though was awesome! We got to visit
a lot of people that needed visits! Also, Sister Wright had to give a
talk in Sacrament meeting so we were just inviting everyone we saw to
come to church. Most of them did so that was the highlight!

So I just want to talk about a few people that we visited! Colin, he
is so funny! He is one of those people that is quiet and just hates
the world, but he is so sweet! We have this thing going on where if he
reads the Book of Mormon everyday for 5 minutes before we see in on
Tuesday we will eat Cheesecake with him! It's a hard reward to do for
us, but just because it will help him then we will sacrifice for it!
😂😜 Connie, she is so sweet! We were just driving around and felt
impressed to go see her and her husband Tony. Turns out we answered
her prayers! It was so awesome to be an answer to somebody's prayer!
She also came to church and they both haven't coime to church in
forever! She is not a member, but her husband is. Everyone was so
surprised to see them, but I thought it was just awesome! Now Chase!
He is our new investigator, who tells us he's not an investigator, but
really is. He is our neighbor Mike's best friend. He is so funny! He
just has so many questions about our church and we were more than
happy to answer them and invite him to church! He came! It was so
awesome and I can see the change in him happening as he draws closer
to Christ. Now if only the same thing can happen to Mike then that
would be awesome! Everyone would think we are the greatest
missionaries ever if we got Mike to church! Soooo challenge accepted!
Hopefully I stay in this area for a little bit!

Well that was pretty much my week! A lot of fun things happened and a
lot of not so fun things happened. It was just awesome! I love this
church so much and the blessings that come with it as we strive to
follow Christ! I know the blessings that you will recieve if you come
to church and become the best person you can be! There is nothing else
like it! I know this church is true, the book is blue, and I love you!
