Exchanges This Week

What a week!  It was kinda a hard one but it went okay! We had exchanges this week so I was in Albany with 
Sister Barber. So that was a good break from the usual routine.  Yesterday was the best day of the week though.  So we had 9 people at church this week and there was a older lady and a younger daughter that came and sat on the front row. They where like the poster children for backwoods hicks South Georgia. So they go to bless the sacrament and the daughter lets out the biggest fart I ever heard. So we played it off continued with the meeting and then it just keeps coming!  Mind you its fast and testimony meeting so she gets up to give her testimony and she tells us she found a boyfriend who finally isn't a butt hole. Then she sits down and a counselor in the presidency gets up to talk and she farts again but this time she yells out GOSH DANG IT!  But she used other words I just filtered that. So it was a great spirit filled meeting yesterday!  Turns out they are from a different stake; they where asked not to come back to so they came to our branch. That night we went out to knock doors so we just got into the car and drove over to a place kinda close to us. It is a really nice neighborhood and typically we don't get much luck in the nice parts of town.  So I was not really excited to knock there, but the first house we knocked the family was really nice and we shared the Christmas message with them.  They said they would watch it and for us to come back in a couple days so that was really surprising. Then I saw a house down the street with awesome christmas lights so I was like "Lets go there."  So we walked up and they are all out side and the man said, "Hey how are you and waved us over and we went over and he was like "I know who you are!  Your missionaries and I know about the celestial kingdom and I have read your book! That was a little shocking! So they invited us in and we had sugar cookies and talked a little more! Turns out missionaries had come by his house 3 years ago and taught him but then he said they went home! They are so cool and they invited us back for Christmas to talk with their family as well. The husband said to his wife "I was going to ask you to join their church but then you would get stuck with me forever! HAHA  After a hards week it was good to end it meeting awesome people like that! Well I love y'all so much! Don't forget to keep the Savior the focus this season!

Love 

Sister Randall

This is the only picture she sent home this week!  I think she wanted us to see the moss hanging from the tree! Very Beautiful!
