Week 5 -"The days are weeks and the weeks are days"

July 11, 2018

hello again everyone!!!

Another week down as being a missionary and it has finally made sense to me when people said, "The days are weeks and the weeks are days" THAT IS HOW I FEEL!! Anyway so this week was pretty great! Although not much success :( Most times when we are knocking doors people see the name tag and slam the door, but because this week has been so hot people have been offering us water so in return we try to give them a BOM but they don't accept it:( 

This week we met with our investigator Chuck and he is doing so so so good!! We invited him to be baptized and he is so excited! at church on Sunday he told one of the members that he wanted to go buy a suit! we thought that was pretty cool! We are excited for him:) 

For the 4th of July there was a parade right outside our place so we went and walked around and tried to hand out some BOMs but no one would talk to us or accept a BOM we then went and tried tracting which led to no one being home or no one wanting to talk but we kept our spirits high and just kept trying! Then a miracle happened;) the senior couple in our ward gave us a call and asked if they could take us out to dinner and if we could go over and watch the fireworks on TV at their place!! so we went and it was awesome but fireworks in Boston didn't start until 10:30 and we had to be in by 10 so we missed it:( but still a great day! 

Today for Pday we went to Fenway park which was super fun!! they have a game tonight so we weren't able to tour it :( But afterwards we went to downtown Boston to Quincy Market and just walked around it was so much fun finally getting to tour a little bit of Boston!! This week was great and i'm looking forward to this upcoming week as well! 

I want to challenge you all to read "Revelation for our church, Revelation for our lives" By Pres Nelson it is so amazing!! anyway i hope everyone is doing good!! Love you all!!

XOXO. Sister Smoot
