This week has been the very best week ever! We went to go see Harry Larry again. He cracked us up sooooo much! He said the closing prayer and he said, "Father in Heaven I love you above all. I thank you for sending these sister missionaries to visit me. Father......I think I'm in love with them!" Bahahah oh man, it was so hard not to laugh when he said that in his old British accent. He also admitted to us that he thinks Obama's wife is very attractive too! We tried to teach him the plan of salvation but he basically had it memorized and taught it to us haha. That just shows how many times he has been taught haha.
We also found ANOTHER 92 year old who's name is jim. We told the people in the ward if we sound like we are yelling at them it's because all we do is teach old and deaf people. They personally are my very favorite people to teach. Plus Jim CAME TO CHURCH THIS SUNDAY!! He is also a hoot. The first time we meet him he asked us, "what do you do all day besides bug people?" and I said, "Jim that's what we do all day every day." and he replied, "Oh good, you can come over any time then." haha When I went over to say hi to him at church I asked him. "So jim how has your day been?" he replied, "Well I don't know, I haven't looked at it yet." haha I am always taken back by how witty and quick he is for being a 92 year old. We took him to sunday school and I held out the manual for him to look at while the lesson was being taught and he said, " I can't read it, I'm blind." and I was like "What?!" he said, "I'm blind in one eye and I can't see out the other..." hahaha I had no idea how to respond to that. Then 10 minutes later he pats my arm and said "gosh you sure are pretty." I leaned over and said, "I thought you were blind..." and then he just bust up laughing. I don't know what to think of jim except that he keeps us on our toes that's for sure haha. The elders took jim to priesthood and when they came back they told us they HAD to tell us a hilarious story and I was like oh man this is going to be good. So when jim was gone they ran over to tell us. While they were in priesthood they leaned over and asked jim what us sisters have taught him. he said "Nothing!" and elder Searle was like, "what do you mean?! what do they talk about when they come over?" and Jim was like "all they talk about is theirselves."
WE HAVE TAUGHT HIM THE RESTORATION AND THE PLAN OF SALVATION, thank you very much!!! He just pretends that he is blind and deaf when he wants to be.
I'm super sad I don't get to see these old hoots because i'm being TRANSFERED!!! Yup it's true. I found out Friday.
President Murdock called and told sister gregerson that she was going to be a trainer!!! and then He told me I am going to be "Way transferred!" what ever that means haha and he also told me that I had a new calling but he was going to have to call me the next day to tell me. We TOTALLY tricked the assistants in telling me that I was a sister trainer leader and they got me back by having president never calling me to tell me officially it was true. Haha good times.
well I will let you all know where i'm at next week and who my new companion is. I love you all!! have a wonderful week!
Love sister jones
