Week 13: Let's get this bread

-
Heyy everyone!

This was another really good week. I can't remember half the things we did but that just means we stayed busy :) I finally feel like I'm getting into the groove of things and we are getting a ton of new missionaries next transfer so I'm hoping I will be able to train soon. 

Highlights this week!!
1. We served at Butte Creek Mill in Eagle Point with the zone which is a historic mill that burned down. 
2. Sister Hill filmed a video story so we got to hang out with the social media elders again. They are super fun to be around and they were able to join our member lesson yesterday. 
3. We didn't get enough members to share posts this week so we had to brush our teeth with flour, salt, and pepper as punishment. It was gross but not as bad as eating the half cup of mayo. 
4. We played volleyball with the STLs this morning!!! Always a good time 
5. I made 14 loaves of rosemary bread this week and we took it to some ward members and it was great to see everyone and visit. They turned out really good!
6. We did another temple tour with Jeff!
7. Institute with Bro. Maurer. He is one of my favorite people and his classes are so fun and insightful. He told us that we should not be afraid of being creepers and I honestly needed that. 
8. We served at the pear farm again! Lots of leaf raking so if you need a pro raker?? I will be an expert after 2 Oregon winters 

I feel really blessed this transfer. I didn't teach a single investigator lesson last transfer and it was hard but we have been getting some really solid referrals. We had to take Andrew off date since he ghosts us every time we call him. It was a huge bummer but we hopefully will start teaching 2 new people this week! There are so many blessings and miracles that I have been able to witness and I have learned and progressed a lot. I know that the work I am doing matters and that the seeds I'm planting will be fruitful eventually. 

I love you all and hope you guys have an amazing week. I think about you often and hope you are staying healthy and safe. Remember to read your scriptures, say your prayers, and wear your mask! 


Love,
Sister Crouch

  Hi guys! Hope you guys all had a great week! Our week was so busy but if was nice because we got so much done. I am really starting to get in a groove of missionary work to the point where I hope I get to train next transfer because I think it would be a blast! We are keeping busy with tons of service and member lessons which is good! Its nice to get out of the apartment and feel useful.  Highlights of the week! 1. We got to have interviews with President. He probably thinks I'm bonkers but he was laughing the whole time so I think thats a good sign hehe 2. We got to teach a new person David! He is super cool and really nice so we are hoping to continue our lessons.  3. We got to do a tour of the Laie temple with our friend Jeff. He has COVID and stage 4 cancer so he's very quarantined right now but he absolutely loved it.  4. We got to walk Sadie and Candy again and their owner made us charm bracelets. She's very much a retired hippy because she says groovy and ra...
