Biker Rally in Baker!

Hey guys! What do you call a set of missionaries in the middle of a biker Rally? ....Sister Karsten and Bailey... Haha this weeks big event in Baker was the biker rally.  bikers from all over drove through town and camped out in Baker so they could drive through the different sights here (Anthony lake, Hell's canyon, etc.) It was crazy! We were able to talk to a few people and clear up some misconceptions they had about our beliefs which was good, but nothing more than that. It was cool to see all the bikers and the different pop up shops selling patches and leather vests and other stuff Haha. Burger Bob's even had a "biker special" this whole week! Those bikers man... they are tough looking but they are no match for your mountain biker gang dad Haha. 

Speaking of gangs the mission has been having interviews with President Nygaard recently. We just had ours this last week. You guys he is literally the best ever. And Sister Nyggard is SO FUN! Man oh man life is good!!!! 

It's been a great week, we had 6 set appointments for lessons which was AWESOME! we taught a 101 year old lady named Marian Haha she is SO CUTE! our conversations usually go like this:

Us: "how has your week been!?"
Marian: "WHAT???"
Us: "HOW HAS YOUR WEEK BEEN!?"
Marian: "SORRY HUN I CANT HEAR YOU, A LITTLE LOUDER"
Us: "HOW... HAS. . YOUR.... WEEK... BEEN..."
Marian: "OHHHHH YES YES I DO LIKE THOSE" 
Us: *face palm 

We also taught a new member lesson to Desiree at a members home. It was awesome to see how much love the members have for her! We taught her the gospel of Jesus Christ. She is doing SO GOOD! 

We also taught Jess at a members home. She has a desire to get baptized but needs to pray about if what we are teaching is true. She had an amazing experience about the book of Mormon which is awesome! We will keep you updated! 

We also got to have another Lesson with Tori, she is doing great and excited for her baptism! She had us over for dinner and a lesson. We talked about the importance with spiritual CPR (church, pray, read the scriptures).

Margaret and AJ, we met them outside and taught the restoration! They are super excited to learn more so we will keep you posted! 

We got to talk with Terry and Julie Miller! They have read and have been reading the book of Mormon which is super cool! We are going to go back and visit when other family members come up! 

Oh and I'm super buff now because we helped a family we met chop some wood...most of it was pretty green but it was still super fun and made me feel like the hulk.

Also we went on a super pretty hike this morning with our district in prairie city and you guys, the last like 10 min. no joke it just poured on us! 

Hope you had a great week!

Love,

Sister Bailey :)
