I can
definitely testify of a few things:
1) hard work pays off,
and everything is in the LORDS TIME!
2) Greenie power is
REAL! :)
3) the book is blue
and the church is true!!
OK, so its been an
awesome week! so much good has happened and we've had some awesome lessons
we've taught. i'll try to remember to put in a spiritual experience this week,
sorry, i'm always so rushed :P
MONDAY: was awesome!
we played games, shopped at walmart, went golfing, got a package from mom
(shirts are awesome and love the fun stuff :P). we had dinner with the lamberts
(it was DELICIOUS as usual!) and went to YSA FHE, and had a lesson with the T*.
M* is doing really well, understanding everything and remembering most
everything!!
TUESDAY: we had a pretty
busy day! we tried to make a lot of visits and contact our referrals, but not
as much luck as i would've liked. we finally had a lesson with P* though and
Miracle #1 of the week: we put him on date for baptism!! :) it was a long time
coming and we're all super excited! had a lesson with S* as well at night and
the O*'s. S*'s lesson we talked about the gospel of Jesus Christ (faith,
repentance, baptism, holy ghost, and endure to the end)... and guess what?!
another miracle! we put her on date as well!!! :D was an awesome day! we also got
a referral from brother chamberlain for a 9 year old in a semi-active family
that we are going to start teaching... and put on date this week! so many good
things happening in the area and in peoples lives!! PLUS in the O*'s lesson we
commited them to all going to church on sunday (aren't sure yet if
they did or not but we will find out! :P)
WEDNESDAY: We had
another lesson with the Tovars and then right after that went into Salt Lake so
sister Smith could take her drivers test. we got there and she was SUPER
nervous, because she has never really driven in the city before, she (in
missouri) lives in the middle of nowhere on a dirt road. but she said she would
try and do her best, we said a prayer, and she did GREAT. probably better than
i did haha :P after that we had lunch at IHOP with the giftcard that sister
rutter sent me and i had delicious pancakes with peaches and rasberry :)
shoutout! ♥ ran to deseret books so sis smith could get a few things, then home
for a service project. That night we had a lesson with M* and F* and they are
getting married, and he asked if he could get baptized on the 9th, the day
after their wedding!! MIRACLE #3!!! wow wow wow! i was so happy and full of the
spirit this week it was awesome. we did tell him that there are certain
commandments he has to follow and he said he's willing to live them when he
learns about them, but he really wants to be baptized and eventually sealed to
his family :) I LOVE THE GOSPEL!!!
THUSDAY: was another
great day! we did our regular morning schedule, had a lesson with g*, i think
the biggest struggle we have with her is that she ALWAYS says she will come to
church and is very genuine, but she has shown up once, and that was mothers
day. in MAY. its kinda frustrating, but i think we're going to try to do temple
square with her. we had a lesson with S* as well again and that went well,
everyone is on board with the bapism! we haven't been having as many lessons with
p* because everyone has been super busy (he's been working, family drama,
etc.). we also saw n*, dopped R* as well, which you could tell he was really
disappointed about and we're probably going to pick him back up sometime soon
:) we had a lesson with the m* in the trailer park, and it was altogether a
busy day and i felt grea! weather has been cooler and we had some rain and
thunder this week, especially on sunday! :)
FRIDAY! we surprise
weeded for the V* again for morning exercise (before it got too hot)- the pile
was HUGE!!! O.o Distict meeting, lunch (subway with the giftcard from sis
Rutter again!!), planning, correlation, a quiet not super busy day, a usual
friday. but planning is going really well! President wants us to be expert
planners by the end of july, and i feel like i'm starting to get there!
SATURDAY: had
correlations, saw T* up in the trailer park and set up an appointment,
chamberlains gave us a giant bag of walnuts from her tree... they are HUGE and
SOOOO Good. SO GOOD. we saw l* as well, and made visits.
SUNDAY: busy sabbath
as usual, it will be weird to come home and 1) have only 3 hours of church, 2)
not be 100% busy! we never have spare time on sunday! always somewhere to
be. we went to gospel principles with m* and f* and in Lakepoint sacrament
meeting sister pearson was released as relief society president! O.o it was so
sad. you could tell she was bummed, but is all the lords plan. went to Primay
with S* and i was sitting next to her in sharing and singing time... and she
was sneezing every 10 seconds... literally! we were really confused and then we
realized... she was probably allergic to me or my clothes! because i think the
shirt i was wearing has some silk in it and she is allergic to silk :P
hahahaha. fun sunday adventures :P primary is more fun than i
remembered too!! :P we did the stop smoking lesson with m* and f* and that went
really well, he's definitely got a long way to go in a short amount of time,
but i know he can do it!! :) i have faith in him and in the lord and in the
gospel!
I love all of the had
work we've had the opportunity to do this week and i can't wait for this next
week too! :) have a great one and Keep the Faith! :) ♥
