The anwser is you get stuck and pray with all your might. Not that I would know.. pfffttt who would do a stupid thing like that 🤥🤥 haha
February 18th: So today we finally got to leave the apartment!! Yay!! We were only stuck inside a day and a half but it felt like forever!! We had a phone call lesson with Frank..but we were scraped ice off our car for 30 minutes and forgot to put in a lesson soooo we just taught the Plan of Salavation..coming up with the lesson plan on the spot but it worked and was sorta good!! #wetriedandthelordmagnifyed. Anywwhooo then we went to this bonnie area called Richland and met the Jewells! (This senior couple in our ward) we brought them cookies! There dogs were so skittish but honestly I'd rather that than a dig that tries to rip my face off. We talked about the resurrection with them and it was a pretty good spiritual thought! Then we went knocking out in the cold and kicked around a piece of ice and no one was interested but I did read a scripture to one guy..turns out he was mostly deaf so he had no idea what I was talking about! Then we visited this inactive family and the son was shoveling on the roof and the dad came out and said "Your not done yet??" And the son was like "it's a lot of ice!!" And the dad was like "so??" The son had a hammer and was Chippen away the best he could..we talked to the dad a bit and he was really funny and we read 1nephi 3:7 with him! Then we knocked on this guys house and he was butt naked! Thank goodness the door covered his bottom half. it's so surprising how many NYkers open the door naked.
February 19th: We had a lesson with Leyna! She is so cute and Sister Rettig joined! We talked about the importance of Preisthood power for baptismes! We visited another inactive family and brought them cookies! We had to trudge through like three feet of snow to get to the front door but toats worth itttt! We talked about trails and how to overcome them with God's help! She said her mom had a saying "this too shall pass, like a kidney stone, but it'll pass"! Then we had a crazy lesson with Art and the gang ( well just Bill and tammy) we didn't even get a prayer in..Bill started it with polygamy and how the "OG" Mormon Bible says you can have 5 wives and how the one we brought is the "NY" bible! We couldn't really teach cause Bill kept interrupting with crazy off topic things ending with how he was raised by wolves ( mogely??) And how the wolves fed him deer meat and killed ten people in his backyard...then the FBI came and shot his "family". Anyways then a bunch of finding after that
February 20th: We had exchanges today!! All of us shoveled the church drive way! We had a bold lesson with Frank about progressing towards baptism and he said don't push me..so we are gonna stop teaching him cause he's been taught for an eternity. Then we went knocking and found a girl who was really interested but her mom said Go AWaY!! And so we ran outta there. Then we met this cool guy named Stan!! And stan is a stud! He was interested in meeting again and talking! We had dinner at the Rettigs and told them to flip to a random page in the BOM and the verse we read was exactly what she needed to hear!!
February 21st: 7 months!! Woohoo!! We had Zone Conference today and I gave the spiritual thought to half the mission!! It was scary but I think I did a pretty good job!! I got to see my old comps again! We had a lesson with Crystal and she really wants to get baptized but she has a lot going on so ease pray for her! Then we had an awesome lesson with our bud Randy about baptism the preisthood and the Holy ghost!! I'm so happy he is starting to open up to us!
February 22nd: Today was zone council Sister prettyman gave a killer training on how the best members participating in lessons is members in the scriptures! Then we met this lady named faith who kept talking about really uncomfortable things so we left really fast.
February 23rd: BEST SUNDAY EVAAa me and Sister Prettyman sang in church, had a great lesson in YWs and Crystal and her daughter came to church! After church is when things got baddddd...so we went to Bills place and the gang and they said to come another time so while we were following Google maps it told us to go down this one road and apparently it was a snow mobile road!! We got totally stuck in the snow!! We prayed for help and not even two seconds later some snowmobile people helped us out! And then they said we would probably have to get a tow but we really didn't wanna get a tow cause then mission pres would find out and all these other peeps so we prayed again and the snow mobile people gave it one more try and they got the car unstuck!! Halayloooyahhhhh!!
Spiritual thought: faith is an action word!! Believe God will answer your prayers! Have faith your obedience will lead to miracles and always have charity with others cause you don't know what they are going through! 1nephi 19:9.
