Hello family!!!
I can't believe that I will get to talk to you so soon! I felt like Christmas Skype just happened! Man time is flying by soooooo so so fast!! So to answer some of your questions mom, the Easter APF was something we thought of but other Zones had already done similar things before. We did it at Fordham which is the busiest part of the Bronx in this area. It was about a 7 minute walk from the church. The manhattan zone did a chalk drawing of the Plan of Salvation on Union square. They taught people the Plan of Salvation while walking through a big drawing of it on the ground. That one actually made it into Desert News. So did a shoe shining APF they did in Harlem. They had a free shoe shine and taught people the gospel while they were shining their shoes! We've done train tracting and the family history thing and other church tours. There is a lot of interesting and creative ways that you can spread the gospel. You just need to find a way to have people talk to you. Recently we have been trying to contact more using the Mormon messages videos that the church puts out. That has been cool.
Well this week we started teaching a lady who wants to meet every day!!! Isn't that awesome?! The only problem is that she is struggling with drugs. Her driving motivation is to get clean so she can gain custody of her daughter. So she is coming to addiction recovery class with us and meeting daily. She is reading and keeping commitments! It is so sweet!
The other sweet things was that we had 10 lessons in two days! That was awesome! We hope to keep it strong for the rest of the week, :) I am so sorry this is short. Transfer day is always hard to have time to do everything. I will try to write more later today if I can.
Well I love you all so much!!
Love sister Lounsbury
PART 2
Sister Lopez and I are staying for one more cycle (Yaya) we are going to rock it this cycle!! I am way excited. We just got a new roommate. I got to see sister Wilkes, sister Matthew and sister Steele at transfers!!! That was so fun. It is POURING rain right now. Dumping!!! We had to take all the luggage from I wood chapel and now we are heading out back into the rain to get groceries, scarf some food down and then to go to our appointment with B (the one w/ drug issues who wants to meet daily.)
I'm really sorry I ran out of time today to write more. I loved your email! The boys are so cute I am going to die!!! Haha playing missionaries and attorneys. That is just so cute!
Well I love you! Got to go
