Okay so get ready this week was a wild one. Sister Ferrell and I have been doing a positivity push this week where everything we have to say is positive. Nothing negative. And if something negative does happen... we have to say 3 positive things. Anyways we were given some awesome opportunities to be positive this week!! Hah so on Tuesday we were walking and met this lady named Daisy. She seemed nice to start and asked us to walk with her because we were street contacting, and we ended up talking like 2 miles with this lady as she bashed us because she thinks we don't believe in grace. Don't ask me why we walked with her for so long... I have no idea. But anyways we do believe in grace, thats why we have a Savior! 

Right after this experience we were walking back to where we parked our bikes and I saw this Hispanic man and waved to him. When I started talking to him I wasn't thinking about anything else, and unfortunately I face planted it when I miscalculated the curb. Like strait to the ground. Like a child. Haha I got up as fast as I could then through my hands in the air and yelled saved it! And started laughing and he just looked at me like a fool. Hahah because it was so awkward I laughed harder and then so did he. So basically we just historically laughed on the side of the road and I walked away with a red face, skinned knees and no dignity. Hahah but it was great.

THEN the following 20 minutes were wild as well. We met a lady who showed us her 10,000 (legit that many she's calculated it) tomato plants. Then educated us in the importance of all the Bees and birds then showed us how to fertilize plants using a paintbrush..... and showed us all her impregnated melon plants. So that was WEIRD! Haha but I might go into plant fertilization after my mission...?🤷‍♀️

THEN right after this we saw a man on his bike so we stopped and talked to him.. turns out he and his wife are looking to be baptized. So we invited him to be baptized and he said yes... we will keep you posted on that.

Last little story, we grabbed some food on Saturday, said a prayer over it, then when we opened our eyes there were 2 people staring at us. So I waved to them and started to ask them some questions. They ended up letting us sit with them, then we found out that the man Patrick was currently reading the book of mormon. We had a long chat about how God loves all of us, and he said that Mormonism matches his views of God the closest. Anyways we are meeting with him and his wife this week and I am so excited!!

It's been an awesome week. Lots of miracles. Sister Ferrell is unfortunately getting transferred :( Sister Sister Folkman my past companion is moving into my apartment and I'm PUMPED. It's going to be an awesome week. I love you. Happy August.
