Its been a fast week, we just kinda got to work and grinded haha. Here's the rundown:
Highlights:
-Visiting Sandspit!
-Though we may be in the middle of nowhere, we still can do Family History work🥳
-Church on Sunday! We had a whopping 2 members come!
-Lots and Lots of Service, but we had lots of miracles!
-Vince and Stacey!
-The Tlell Fall Festival!
-Chicken Poop Bingo!
Lowlights:
-Welcome to the rainforest, and as such, it rains, A LOT
-We have to drive at minimum 3-4 hours every day, and it is tiring sometimes haha
Sandspit(South
Island): On Thursday, we went over to the South Island, to a small town
called Sandspit. Not a whole lot there, but we deemed it the rich
people place on Haida Gwaii haha. Some BIG homes over there. We had some
good interactions, and in the future we will have some service
opportunities!
Sunday
Chaos: On Sunday, we had services in Masset(very north tip of Haida
Gwaii). We had only 2 members come, and we tried to zoom into the branch
over on the mainland, but it wasn't working. It was a chaotic morning,
but we ended up having a sweet testimony meeting with these two members
that left us all leaving with tears and joy in our hearts. Didn't go as
planned, but I guess it did.
Tlell
Fall Festival: In a tiny tiny village in our area, they had a big
festival that we had the privilege to help set up! We felt prompted the
day before the festival to show up and see if they needed help! They
ended up really needed help! And that's when we met Vince and Stacey!
They were helping set up the festival, and we got talking to them! They
are so kind and such funny people to talk to! And now we are going to
help them build a treehouse in their backyard and have a Barbecue with
them!
One
thing Vince showed us at the festival was Chicken Poop Bingo. So pretty
much its more gambling than actual bingo. They have a piece of
cardboard as the floor of the kennel, and they make bets on where the
chicken is going to poop in the kennel😂 everyone was super invested in
it and people went crazy when the chicken pooped😂 It was fun!
The
festival was great! Very small town vibe, but the people are so nice! I
can't wait to get even more connected with the people out here!
Anyways y'all, that's it for this week! Hope everyone has a great week!
Haawa!
