It was late Thursday evening. The three of us sat in the darkened car, eyeing the mission home, wondering how this was all going to go down. We finally got up the courage and made a mad dash for the front door, carefully carrying all the supplies we would need. Getting through the front door was easy--no alarms activated. We were in and out within 3 minutes. Five minutes later, we were in the car, a few miles away with big grins of satisfaction on our faces.

This week was great!
On Tuesday, we were able to teach Paul again. We taught the Plan of Salvation and invited him to be baptized October 7th, to which he replied "Why not? I can't be half-committed" :D That family has been a miracle since day one and I'm so thankful I have the opportunity to be a part of it. I look froward to seeing what else Heavenly Father has in store for that amazing family.
Thursday was good too! Yes, we did in reality break into the mission home. It was quite easy seeing that they front door is always unlocked (hence why I'm certain Kentlands is the safest area in the mission). Our purpose was to leave snickerdoodle cookies for President because his birthday was on Friday and we succeeded. He called to thank us afterwards :) (thanks for the recipe Mom)
We were finally able to get in contact with Helen and she's moving.... so we'll see if we can still teach her or if we'll have to pass her, but a baptism, no matter which area, is always a point for Team Jesus.
We also got a referral this week for a kid named Adrian. He's YSA, but the zone leaders thought he'd be best suited in a family ward, so we have the privilege of teaching him as well. We only met and taught him briefly on Saturday, but we also have high hopes for him!
Remember, God is good!
