So I would just like to tell you all about my Saturday last week. This is actually pretty normal in my life.
Okay
so it was Saturday and I LOVE Saturdays! Saturday are game days. The
day to get everything done. So we went out teaching and we decided to
walk all day so that we could talk to as many people on the street as
possible. We only had a few hours because we had to go to an activity at
our ward mission leader's house. We ended up walking 7 miles in total
for those couple hours. Our last house to go to was a lady named Rosa.
Rosa and I are like best friends! We basically just laugh together when
we have lessons. The only problem is that she works on Sunday, so she
can never go to church. We went into this lesson actually planning on
dropping her as an investigator. Towards the end of the lesson, I had a
super strong feeling to invite her to be baptized again and she said
yes! My companion didn't really know what I was doing at first, but it
worked out! She has been searching for a new job and she really wants
this in her life.
Okay now after all that goodness, we went out to our car to go to
the activity because we were already late. We get out there and realize
that the keys were inside the car.. and we were outside the car.. and
the car was locked. Great. We called some members and eventually got the
number for someone to help us out. While we were waiting for one guy,
another guy showed up because one of our members called him and sent him
to where we were! Perfect. Meanwhile, all the other missionaries were
at the activity together, so they all knew what was going on. Our
district leader was like freaking out. He's great! He worries about us.
:) But then our phone died!! We had no way to call the other
missionaries or the first lock guy that was on his way! We ended up
going to a gas station and I used the payphone to call Elder Miller.
Then we tried calling the lock place, but we ran out of time, so we
decided to just go to the activity.
Next problem, we didn't know how to
get to our ward mission leader's house! So.. we guessed. We made it!!
Then.. the gate was locked. We didn't have a phone to call the
missionaries to unlock it and it's a farm so the house was super far
from the gate. So what do we decide to do? Jump the gate. We are
brilliant. We're missionaries in skirts. Why wouldn't that work? And I
can't hop fences! Somehow I always get stuck! So yes I was standing at
the top and I was too scared to jump down, so my companion had to help
me.
Let's just say the other missionaries had a big laugh when we made it back to the house.
There you go. A day in the life of Hermana Hunt
