You'll have to forgive me this week, im typing on a computer for the first
time in 4.5 months...theres going to be typos everywhere!!!!
Also this might be scattered and short because ya, i cant focus right now
lol!!! Hopefully you'll get it all!
So being in Scotch Plains now i have been in the hood for a week! It's
great! Theres so many people on the streets and in the houses and literally we
can just talk to everyone everywhere! I loooooooove it! Theres doo-rags and
garbage and peeling paint and sketch grocery corner stores and little children
on bikes and drunk people and random other things EVERYWHERE! Im in
heaven.
We found a really cool guy named Fred on Thursday. He had a stroke a couple
of years ago and so he's deaf and has other health problems and is just a super
humble guy. We were walking to another appointment and he was taking out his
garbage. We stopped and said hi and he asked US "which church are you from, what
do you believe, etc etc". Wow! We ended up having a 30-40 min conversation with
him and set up an appointment to see him on Saturday at 6pm. He juked, but its
ok because later we learned that he just couldnt hear us knocking on the door.
Lol, we totally didnt take that into account :P
Then we had MLC on Friday that went from 10-5pm- whew, that was long! But
it was super spiritually uplifting, even if they did pack on way more
responsibilities for us STLs than we used to have. I'm super stresssed right
now. But its all good inthe hood (hahahahahahah i can LITERALLY say that
now!!!!! yaaas!)
Then we went to Ellis Island on Saturday and it was BEAUTIFUL TO SEE NYC
AGAIN!!!!! AND TO TALK TO ALL THE FOREIGNERS!!! AHHHHHHHHH! *tear* so beautiful
:)
Thats about all for me! sorry for the shortness, im getting kicked off the
computer by the newbie elders who need a computer to email becuz they dont have
an ipad!
OH! NJMM finally got FB too. So, if you see my profile change- its me, not
some random hacker hahaha. Love you all!!!
Stay Jersey Strong!
