We've been doing a lot of knocking on doors and street contacting lately. We had to drop our only investigator who was "progressing" because she really wasn't progressing. She also is pretty mentally unstable, so after talking to the mission president, the ward mission leader, and the bishop, we didn't feel like she would really be capable of making the baptismal covenant anyway. She was a really sweet woman, and she needs a lot of love, but unfortunately she needs help that we can't provide. We can help her spiritually, but she wasn't putting very much effort into that, sadly.
Our door knocking and street contacting has being going well, however. I don't hate it anymore. In fact, I kinda like it even. Its terrifying, because you have NO IDEA what kind of person will open the door or what kind of things they or the people we street contact will say. But I've definitely learned not to judge a book by its cover. The nicest people might be covered in tatoos or have tons of piercings. Or they might be the people in the nice houses wearing nice clothes who we might initially assume are too proud to want to listen. But God has a way of preparing anyone, so we just have to talk to everyone to figure out who is prepared!
Sister Davis is great. We get along well and she thinks I'm hilarious, which makes me feel validated. She is so bold and willing to talk to everyone! Its kinda terrifying, but its good for me. :)
We went to the Manassas City Museum today. I don't have any other pictures to send other than the ones from there. Sorry!
Have a great week, everyone! The Church is true and the Book of Mormon (which I finished again this morning) is the most amazing book ever written!
