The update:
Two weeks ago one of the people we are teaching called us at 4 am randomly. I woke up thinking maybe it was an evacuation alert (back when the fires were still going on) but we just put the call to voicemail and went back to sleep. We had a lesson with them the next day and this man (keep in mind we had NEVER talked about baptism at ALL yet and he mentioned he's been baptized in another church) literally tells us he had a dream where we told him he needed to be baptized again. Then a man came from our church and baptized him right there in the Willamette river. WOW. Talk about a dream missionary call. We put him on date right then and there over the phone. So crazy. He still has stuff we need to work through but it was awesome to see that God was speaking to him through a dream! I love that man.
Sister Risenmay left me!! Wow that was sad news, my daughter went to serve in our mission president's ward. Now Sister Johnson is my companion (still here in Monmouth). This week has been a bit of a struggle because a lot of people have decided to ghost us and haven't been responding to our texts and calls. But all is well! This week will be awesome.
I love being a missionary even though it's tiring haha. (It's the good type of tired though :)
