Sestra Sariah Sadler: Slovensko - Week 7 in Trenčín (some names changed for privacy)

So, lots of funny stuff has happened this past week!

1. We'll start off with the service we did for a member, Sister Atěbžla. And she was so cute! She didn't want our hair to get dirty or dusty so she put little scarves on our heads that made us look so funny, but that's okay.

2. I got aslked if I'm Polish or the second time this transfer. I don't know if it's my Czech/Slovak mixture that I sometimes use or me trying to speak Czech in a Slovak city. Maybe I look Polish! hahaha I have no idea! They're always so surprised when I say that I'm from America and the look at me like '' I don't trust that you're from America!'' hahahaha so funny!

3. The week before we had gone service tracting, which is where we ask people if they have any service we can do for them and we weren't having much luck but finally this old lady let us in from the cold and gave us some cookies with bananas and basically told us her life story. She kept telling us that we need to live our lives while we're young. Then at the very end she gave me what my companion calls a ''good game pat'', she basically patted me on the backside quite a bit as we were leaving her house... for fertility... hahahahaha, old ladies are some of the funniest!

4. We were tacting and found someone who was interested in what we had to say so we set up with him. We texted him on the day of our meeting and he told us we could meet at his house, he lives there alone, and he would love to make us some tea and dinner... emmmmm..... noooooo... so we told him we had rules against being with a man alone and he told us somewhere we could meet. He ended up bringing us to the Trenčín castle! And while we were there he, (Orim) told us that the sunset was beautiful - oh so sad that we missed it! we had another appointment we had to go to! - truly grateful hahahaha. But while we were there we ended up teaching him the Restoration and the importance of Sabbath day observance. He only moved my hair out of my face once.... awkward!
