Hermana Dangl - Missionary in Washington DC North : Hermana Rachel Dangl

Best week ever!! I say that every week, but I'm feeling especially good and really cultured because we got food from Honduras, El Salvador, Mexico and Argentina. Call me Miss Worldwide thank you very much.

Last Monday we got to go to the National Zoo with our district!!! We were having a grand old time then an Elder ran and threw up in a trash can :/ I mean, at least he made it tho. Then it started pouring rain because hello it's DC, so they announced a severe storm warning and advised us to take cover. Our activity ended early and we ended up walking 3 miles in the rain to our car. As we were walking out I saw a vending machine selling Dippin Dots and I decided I would pay anything to relive my childhood. I paid a hefty $5 and the machine dispensed a LID. Yes just a LID and no ice cream. A true act of betrayal, that I wouldn't even wish upon my worst enemy. They couldn't figure it out so a worker gave me $10, so I made $5 for doing absolutely nothing which was cool . . . but I still never got my Dippin Dots :(

Important news:

1. On Friday I turned 20 1/2 which means I'm officially old so that social security check should be coming in pretty soon 👀

2. WE BOUGHT CAMPING CHAIRS. We saw them at the store for 5 bucks and couldn't pass up the opportunity. So now we bring them everywhere and just post up with our cute little chairs for lessons.

Jose & David (our English class boys) came to ‘in person church’ on Sunday!!! I was joking around the day before and was like what if both our English class boys, Jose and David met? It would be the greatest crossover episode in history. They did, and it was Iconic. Later we had a lesson with David at the park and yes we used our new chairs and looked like a cute lol family at the park. He also brought us Salvadorian food 💯💯

Now a miracle thanks to... yes, you guessed it! Our new camping chairs. At our lesson with Jose, he said we said hi to his wife and kids at the store, but we didn't remember at all because we had never formally met them in person. We just say hi to everyone so they thought that we recognized them when we were really just being nice. BUT, Jose's wife, who isn't a fan of religion, said she thought we were really nice and that she approves of us meeting with Jose, which is a HUGE step! Jose's got the green light sooooo hopefully a baptism is soon to follow.

That's it for this week! Love y'all :) Con amor, Hermana Dangl

I think CA wrecked me bc every time it rains here (all the time) I'm like WOW we needed this rain so much it's gonna get us out of the drought. If you're from CA, you know what I'm talking about.
