General Conference and Singing to Stoners

Hey Hey Hey!

How goes it?
Ephrata is doing well, couple announcements before we begin:

1. Conference was phenomenal, if you didn't watch it, go do so now. One of my particular favorites was given Lynn G Robbins and I highly recommend it to anyone who has ever lived or breathed, especially to those who have done both.
2. We just got a car! The Elders in Quincy sideswiped their car so its going into the shop to get fixed mid-April. Said shop is in Ephrata, so we get to use the car until it needs to go in! what what! 




Jutta is being baptized and confirmed this weekend! Its way exciting, she's absolutely thrilled. She met the elders the other day and as introduction she said "I'm Jutta, I'm getting baptized April 7th". isn't that the greatest? We watched conference with her, and she loved it! ah, she's amazing!





We saw lots of little miracles this week, one of them being that we found a new investigator at approx 8:45 last night. We went by Jeff cause he told us evenings works and its so hard trying by people that late, he opened the door and was like "i'd let you in, but these guys are smoking pot and they're drunk" very considerate to not want us enveloped in that, but we talked to him for a bit and then one of the self- proclaimed "potheads" asked us to sing him a song. We thought, why not so we sang them the first verse of "Nearer My God To Thee" and said a prayer with them. Michael, the one who asked for a song, made us hold their hands while we prayed ("you have to") and when we closed the prayer, he started his own prayer and thanked God for sending us to him and said that we had blessed his life, etc. It was sweet. Kind of a strange occurrence, but we have an appointment with Jeff, the sober one, next week, so win-win right?





this is a corgi we met driving out in Soap Lake, we met a lot of dogs this week :) good times

More pictures to come cause we took a billion lol

Much Love!

p.s. we had dinner with a member this week and played Zombies and Survivors with their 7 y/o. I was dubbed a zombie and may I say made it fairly realistic. My ankle was not happy with my running and falling, but it was a good time.  

Love you all!







this is the epitome of our relationship lol, shes a dork and I laugh  A LOT

Hi Friends! It has been a week. dang.  We got to do a whole lot of service this week which was really fun. It's kinda wonderful to get to think all about someone else even for just an hour. I do a heck of a lot of thinking in a day, so I need a break sometimes and service is the way to do it. The great thing is, if you're doing it right, more than just the service projects feel like service, practically all we do as missionaries is serve, so I get to think about others all the time! yay! One of the things we got to do was go brush horses at Hart Ranch. Sue Hart, the owner, is super sweet and she gave us those gloves as a Christmas gift and we're going back this week to help her put up all her Christmas stuff cause she's getting kinda old, plus we love to do that.  I'm coming up on 3 months and since Sister Zollinger is very likely going to be leaving Terrace Heights at the end of this transfer, I've been thinking a lot about what I've learne...

"Hi Girls!!"

HI Friends! So, no I'm not calling you all girls, ANA WAS BAPTIZED ON SATURDAY! and Sister Zollinger and I spent like 20 minutes trying to imitate how she says "girls" cause she's from the Dominican Republic and it sounds great. That's the way she always greets us :) Love her. Her baptism was absolutely wonderful. the Spirit was so strong and we were all crying, and grinning and ahhh it was so powerful.  Some weird things have happened this week. Tuesday at 12:30AM I woke up and started planning for the day, I woke Sister Zollinger and was so urgent about getting it done until she was like "WE'LL PLAN AT 6:30 WHEN WE USUALLY PLAN". yup. Guess I'm Just too excited about all things missionary. whoops.  Margaret is moved out!! Her new apartment isn't in our area, so we have to give her to another set of missionaries :(, but now she can be baptized!! whoo and we can still go to it, holla. Thanksgiving was grand. We went...
