Another fun thing that happened this week was the fireside with Elder Cook and the two church historians. They gave a lot of great answers to common questions we all have about our church's history, but my favorite thing they taught was how to learn more about church history and how to understand it. Every age and group of people are different, and people are taught differently, but God never changes and he never gives us a commandment that would hurt us or hold us back. In every part of the old and new testament, Book of Mormon, and doctrine and covenants, God always gave commandments that helped keep the saints safe and make it possible for more of his children to know him. Sometimes he gives us commandments that are hard to follow and understand at first, like Nephi and Laban and the Israelites and the wall of Jericho, but each time he reveals his purposes. If we follow those commandments, even when we don't understand them at first, we are guaranteed blessings and a greater understanding.
Funny moments:
I had another dream that I was really fat and president sent me home because I ate too much.
Sister paschen bought a rapunzel doll for her little sisters birthday and when she unpacked it (so it would fit in the box) we discovered that there was a split in the back of rapunzels dress so the doll was mooning us
Elder Zander left a note on the love for he has for my mom on my wall.(I asked Haley about this and she he thinks I'm cool because I send her stuff and all..ok I guess..)
I spent like 20 minutes and was wounded several times all in the name of getting this tiny weed out of the pot of our flat cactus
The elders were cleaning out their flat because they're moving, and they found a camel statue and sent us a picture of it. Guess who's getting a free camel on Tuesday!!
My new favorite stress toy is white tack. On the other hand though, I had a piece of gum I was going to eat in one hand and the white tack in the other. As I'm sure you already guessed, I put the white tack in my mouth by accident. It was awful
On Thursday morning, sister paschen came up to me and was all like "do you know a good dentist?" and she showed me her tooth AND A CHUNK OF HER MOLAR Was Missing?!? Apparently while she was eating her tooth chipped and she didn't notice until later. Now we have to visit a dentist.
So when we were heading to a tea, we had to take the 109 bus to Euxton, and there's another bus, the 109a which also goes to Euxton. Well we took the 109a (I had never taken this ne before) and thinking that it would get us to Euxton sooner. Well it took us out of our zone and would've taken another hour to circle around back to Euxton, so we got dropped off at a Tesco extra (massive Walmart Costco crossbreed store) and had to wait for a member to pick us up. By far one of the most embarrassing moments of my mission
Sister paschen is a big dork who dabs while she sneezes.
