Week 11- There's also a lot of water here

Rain is an interesting factor in what we do here. Its interesting in the it changes absolutely nOtHiNg. Funny story about how i though working in the rain would go versus how it actually is. I figured that we would still go about doing our normal thing, which is door knocking. That would mean that we stay at least semi dry and get an intermittent shower. That makes sense to me. here's the funny part. We went STREET CONTACTING. 

We were trying to decide what to do for the night and my companion form Ukraine (Ct. Kochev) looks at me and goes "you need to practice street contacting". sounded good to me so i said: "For sure, sounds like it'd be fun." Him: (looking to my other Ct. Worthington) "Should we go to the beach?" Ct. Worthington: "Sure. ill go on splits so you can show him the ropes" ME: *realizing that they are talking about going that night and looking outside at the Black clouds* "tomorrow Right...?"

It definitely was not tomorrow. Either way i figured it was good practice and surprisingly enough we talked to quite a few people who were wandering around AND i talked to two Russian speakers! Both spoke English so they switched back to English on a whim whenever they felt like it. It was still super fun and we ended up watching some guys do Frisbee Ballet. it was interesting to see and we gave them some pass alongs after they showed us their routine😅.

We also had some service on Saturday where we got together with a bunch of other churches and put on a lunch for the community. it was super cool to see so many people come together and do that. I met some really cool people from all over too. Its wild how many countries are represented in the Seattle area! After wards i got to go to a Baptism for someone in our Stake that came up to the missionaries and asked to be baptized. Its a pretty interesting story.

Alrigthy! That's some highlights from my week. I hope you enjoyed and i look forward to sharing whatever happens next week! If you want to hear anything in specific, you can tell me and i will try to respond either in the weekly next week or personally. Also, i added quite a few people to this list in the last few weeks, so if you don't want to receive these just let me know! Enjoy your week you Beautiful Human Beings

Scripture to Ponder from me this week is 1 John 4:7-9 
Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
Enjoy!
