Oktoberfest!!

WHO'S PUMPED FOR CONFERENCE?? Cuz I am. Every person we go visit asks us what we have heard about Conference rumors. (They all assume that we know something cuz we're missionaries. Let me just remind you though that we didn't even know there was a hurricane in VA until the day before it was supposed to hit). We know nothing about anything in the world right now, lol. The family we had dinner with last night proposed a 1% tithing increase for people who say, "For those of you who don't know me," while giving a talk in church. Hahah, guilty. Everyone who gave a talk last week better start pullin' their wallets out. ;)

This week was Oktoberfest up in Lovettsville!! There were SO many people everywhere, it was crazy! But ya, we went up there to go street contacting which was so fun, but Sister Ewell and I were dressed in jumper dresses that looked German so everyone assumed we were workers and kept asking us where the beer was. We debated on handing out Word of Wisdom pamphlets for a HOT minute buttt we refrained. ;) Ironic though, amiright? 

The work is good but slow right now! We are in the process of finding new people to teach which always takes a little while but the Lord has a plan for the people in this area so I'm not worried. :) I don't understand everything and I know for a fact I never will, but I do know that whatever our Heavenly Father has in store for us is exactly what we need! 1 Nephi 11:17 "And I said unto him: I know that he loveth his children; nevertheless, I do not know the meaning of all things." Hang on to the simple truths you know. GOD LOVES ALL OF YOU and so do I. :) Have a good week!! 

Love,

Sister Mod
