This week was so wonderful.
On Monday night we got a call from Kalie, our relief society
president, asking us to meet with Raechel at a certain time"for
reasons that she could not disclose. Ha. Her boyfriend was going to propose and
they wanted us to distract her :)
So we did, and first of all, the lesson went AMAZING. We
reviewed the baptismal interview questions with her, and she is ready. So
ready. Plus it was really fun to be with her, knowing that it was her last few
hours as an un-engaged person.
Then she went and got proposed to! We don't know exactly how
it happened yet because she wants to tell us in person, but we'll find out
tomorrow. She is seriously the best. Last week she talked about how she's doing
this not only for her, but for her future family. How she's so excited to be
sealed in the temple with Coby and to raise her family in the church so that
she can give her kids a better life than she had.
HEART MELTED.
I just adore her.
Anyway, on Saturday we had what they called a "Social
Media Day." All of our whole mission, members from the local congregations
went out with the missionaries all day, from 7:30 am until 9:30 pm, took
pictures of everything we did, and posted them to social media. The goal was to
sweep the internet with pictures of what real missionaries do all day long, and
to show them that we are indeed real, approachable people. It was fun.
That's about it.
Yesterday I bore my testimony in fast and testimony meeting
for the last time as a full-time missionary. Wahhhhhhh.
Have a great week!
Love,
Hermana Bennett
The best trio ever!
Williamsburg is beautiful in the fall!
The Piggotts. They have a son on a mission in Nampa right
now. I told them I'd go find him and take him and his companion out to lunch :)
Ha!
