We worked on a farm, had district meeting, saw crazy funny miracles, and walked our poor rain boots off!
It rained buckets and we seriously were so wet some days, nothing we were wearing was dry and it was a little crazy but fun:)
We go help out some members on their farm each week and in return they feed us and we give a little spiritual message and its really fun!:) This week I climbed onto the top of a sugar beet mound/hill/mountain and helped cover the beets up with tarps BECAUSE IT IS SUPPOSED TO SNOW!!!! There is already snow on the mountains so when we went on Saturday we started helping them get ready for winter:) It was really fun and funny and I wish I had a photo of that but we didn't have the camera, but we did get some photos with the baby cows when I spray cleaned their igloos clean with a scary water gun which my companion took a video of so hopefully it goes through! Haha:) It is fun I love them:)
At district meeting we talked about working with members and getting the work going on all levels with everyone involved and it is great and me and Sister Nikka are super excited for everything we have planned these next few weeks!:)
This week we saw some fun miracles and two I am going to share:
The first I want to share happened on Thursday, it was so funny, me and my companion, Sister Nikka laughed so hard all day just because of how it happened but so that day we missed our bus to go to our outer ville so we ended up taking two trains so we could still get to our rendez vous on time and we got there on time to the ville and started walking to the members house, we passed house 19 and hers was 24 so we thought it would be just around the forest bend because we were hiking in the forested mountains to get to her house and we went around the bend no houses! So we walked and walked and ended up at house 52 and then were totally lost and turned
around and knocked on the next door we saw and said we were lost and asked were to go, a little old lady answered and she was so shocked it was really funny and sweet and we were able to go our rendez vous but we were going to miss the train going home because we had been so late getting there but the members ami friend drove us to the gare and we get to the gare and we are waiting at the voie 1 like the poster says and we see a train pull up at voie 3 and we are just standing there until we realize the train at voie 3 is ours!
So we ran down the stairs to voie 3 but when we gt there the train directly in front of us says ferme and the sign says Lausanne, Sister Nikka got on the train but I was confused staring at the signs and didn't so she got off the train and we were standing
there trying to figure out what was wrong and going on and finally concluded calmly that this was our train and
as we turn to the train Sister Nikka just says super calmly "the train is leaving" and I was like "what do you mean?.....THE TRAIN IS LEAVING!" And we totally missed it because we couldn't get on the train x) We laughed so hard because we had even been driven to the gare but we concluded that actually the spirit stopped us from getting on the train and wouldn't let us feel the urgency of the train leaving because we needed to stay or something really bad happened on that train. But we went porting while we waited for the next train and the second door we knocked on was a miracle lesson which was really cool!
The second was we have made it a goal to knock on every door in our sector and so because of this we have the chance to run into friends of members or less actives or old amis and every one in between and that happened! On Friday we were contacting and the last door ended up being a sweet young mother and she let us in to warm up a bit and pray and at the end before we left when she looked at our card she realized it was the same church she thought it was and turned out to be a good ami of some of the members and also has already been taught a few
lessons by the missionaries but it was the elders before which is why she didn't recognize it at first. It was amazing:)
I'm loving Switzerland and everything we are able to do out here:)
Love you all! Have a great day!
Sister Beatty
Have a great week!
