This week I moved down to Fillmore! I met my new companion, Sister Lee! She served for 3 months in Brazil and was sent home because of COVID! She is awesome and we are loving Fillmore!
We got word this week that we are allowed to social distance street contact! We are in a car share area, so we have been walking and biking a lot. It is sooo nice to be out in the world again and to be active!
Crazy experience street contacting! We talked to this man briefly. He was super kind and friendly. But then he had to go, because his friend pulled up, so we went on our way thinking we would never see him again. Then we got a little turned around and ended up back on that street on our way home! He saw us again and called us over! We talked a bit about the Book of Mormon and what we do. He insisted on buying us snow cones and then asked us to please send the Hermanas over so he and his friend could learn more (his friend only speaks Spanish). We promised we would, and left him with a Book of Mormon! So cool!
We are teaching this sweet woman named Charlotte, and yesterday we set a date for her baptism! She will be baptized on the 24th of June. Send prayers her way!
We have been doing a lot of service. The people here are so willing to let us serve them! We did service for the Spanish branch president's wife. They live on a farm and have chickens and goats! It was so much fun and they sent us home with lots of eggs, avocados, and clementines!
I miss my friends back in Santa Barbara, but the work is the same, no matter where you are! I love this Gospel and the hope it brings to peoples' lives!
