This week we got absolutely wrecked by a sneaky Chinese lady. We were street contacting and it was kinda chilly outside (and by kinda chilly I mean not 95 degrees with 100% humidity) and we saw a lady walking to her car so we went up and started a conversation with her! We offered her a card and told her who we were. As I was holding out the card she looked at Sister Withers who wasn't wearing a jacket and said, "Oh! It's so cold! You need a coat," and then she pointed behind us and said "Coat!" So naturally we turned around expecting to see a coat but there was nothing, and when we turned back to our friend she was speed walking away from us. I was left with a card in hand and 5% less self esteem. Never fall for the classic "Coat!" trick. I promise there's not a coat, just a whole lot of disappointment. Lol, lesson learned.
Other than that contact, we had some really amazing contacts!! For some reason everyone and their dog wanted to hear about the gospel this week (as they should lol)! We taught one guy the restoration on his porch and he literally taught himself. Like I'm still kind of convinced that he was an MTC instructor checking in to see if I was still doing good because every question he had led into the next part of the restoration. For example: "There are so many churches, how do I know which one is true?" "If God reached out to His children again shouldn't there be proof?" etc. It was amazing. People are being prepared by the Lord and I am so grateful to be a missionary!!! It's remarkable. I know that this work is the Lord's and I'm grateful that He lets me be a part of it. Love you all!
Love,
Sister Mod
