The Hunt in Huntley

Right now I am in Wheaton Illinois and Sorella Epps is in Washington DC getting her Visa. She will come back and we will most likely finish the transfer together and then she will go off to Italy. 

But the majority of our week we have been FINDING. It's all we do.

Because we are whitewashing but we are also opening the area because there wasn't sisters in the area for 6 weeks and the area is big enough that the Elders who took over our area never made it up there. It was just long enough for things to kinda die down and we really didn't have much to go off of. 

So when we first got to the area we were completely lost and didn't know where to go so we just went to this neighborhood by our apartment and talked with some people outside. We talked with Sue and gave her a book of Mormon and taught her the restoration right there! That was our first day together!

We then stopped by again and met Sue's Husband Ben! He was so nice and offered to give us tickets to the Cubs game. We couldn't go but it was the thought that counted. He had a lot of questions for us! 

The next time we stopped by Sue was excited to see us she said her and Ben had been reading the Book of Mormon for about a week and Ben was anxious to talk with us again. Their Son Matthew has also been carrying the Book of Mormon all over the house! They showed us the picture and it was super cute. 

They were busy that day but they told us to come back the next day. So we did! Of course. And Ben was so excited! Sue was busy so she couldnt talk but we talked with Ben for an hour! Probably a little more. He had questions about everything. He was so interested and just super fascinated by everything.

So I am praying a lot for them and I am just really greatful for them. Them and Inderjit is really all we have right now (we got him a Book of Mormon in Hindi!) But I am excited to see who else we will find. We set a goal to hand out more Book of Mormons than the Sister Training Leaders but we are having a hard time giving most of these people a card let alone a Book of Mormon...... It's a lot different than Bourbonnais or Freeport but I still love being a missionary! It's really really hard but it's also the best. 

Also I got to spend last night and this morning and tomorrow with the Griffins and they are the really great and I love them a lot.
