Tracting in this one trailer park

 Oh the funniest thing ever happened to me the other day. So we were tracting in this one trailer park we had never been before and we did like three doors and all the people just like slammed the doors or whatever. Then we got up to this one house and there was this girl in there and she wouldn't answer the door and then all the sudden this car pulls up and this lady gets out and she of course just told us to leave. So we start going more and more down the street and so then that lady came out of her house and yelled across the street and was like " I just called the cops on you guys. You better leave because these people don't want what your selling." And then I slowly stepped up a little and was like "we aren't selling anything, we are giving away everything we have." And then she was like "Oh honey I know who you are. Y'all are Jehovah witness and these people don't want to be bothered around here with you knocking on their doors. "  So then I was like" actually we are from the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints" and she was like" well, these people don't want to be bothered and the cops are on their way" ... and so at this point I had two options. 1. keep tracting. these people NEED the gospel. 2. leave to help her to have good feelings about the church.

We went with option 2. hahah

As we were pulling out, we saw 2, not 1, 2... sheriffs cars pulling in. Best. day. ever. hahah Just kidding. It was actually really frustrating but it definitely makes for a good story. haha

Sorry I just wanted to tell that story for some reason. Love you. (:
