We have a mini missionary!!!

On Saturday, we got a mini missionary! His name is Brother Kennedy. He is a priest from another ward in the stake here. He is going to go on a mission after a year of college. He is going to be with us for a week and we are excited to have him! We get to help him learn what really needs to be done to be a missionary and to prepare. This is going to be fun!

That is the most exciting thing that is going on, but here is a funny story. We went to a recent converts apartment in a nursing home yesterday. This woman is an interesting lady. She has dementia and hardly remembers anything you tell her, even if it was a few minutes ago. She was talking with Brother Kennedy and she asked how hot it was outside, he told her and then we moved on. Just a few minutes later, she asked him again, "How hot is it outside?" The funniest part of that was we forgot to tell Brother Kennedy that she has dementia so he was really confused. Later we asked her to turn off the TV so we could talk. She had no problem with that so she went to turn it off. Once she did though, she turned around and said, "Oh, the red light is still on, that means it didn't turn off." The TV was clearly off and I told her that but she turned it back on. It came on again and I pointed and said, "It is back on." She then said, "Let me see that finger." She then grabbed my had and then bit my finger! She bit my finger!!! We just moved on, talked about the plan of salvation and moved forward. It was really funny though. 

Thank you for everything that you are doing!!! I am so glad to be out serving the Lord. I love you all!
