Hello
Hello:)
The beginning of the week was like
eating plain vanilla ice cream, then slowly adding sprinkles, hot fudge, a
dozen cookies, and then by the end an ice cream truck came and handed us
all the ice cream we needed for eternity:) For real.
It was zone conference this week
and Heavenly Father really prepared us:) We had been biking a lot in the hot
sun like usual, teaching like usual, but we felt exhausted. then zone
conference! so many of my prayers were answered in those 8 hours than I feel like
my whole life! They even had a sister come and talk about how we need to
"love our neighbor AS THYSELF" basically taking care of ourselves so
we can take care of others. She taught us how to cancel out negative thoughts
and be nice to our hard working selves. I want to be her when I grow up:) She
does this kind of stuff for a living! President Hanks is the best mission
President in the WORLD. He knows exactly how to help us and pushes us to
do our best. "We gird up our loins like men" or in Pres. Hanks words
"like the sisters preparing to bike." Buahahahaha I laughed so
hard:)
One of the many things that I
loved at zone conference was President Hanks urging us to get over the powerful
effect we can have on people. Go for it!!! Leadership is not something
unattainable, we are all leaders:)
Jennifer's family!!!!!!!!!!!! The
family we told you about last week wants to be Baptized!!!!!!! We had a lesson
with them on Saturday and it was good. I invited them to baptism and they
basically changed the subject, but they had a really humbling experience on
Sunday. THANK YOU HEAVENLY FATHER:) They lost their wallet and they don't have
a lot of food in the house so one of the members brought over dinner. They were
so grateful! They probably wouldn't have eaten that day! They brought over
canned food and all sorts of stuff! Heavenly Father knows how to prepare his
children. After all of this we came to teach and they basically said they
wanted to be baptized!!!!!!! I can see the gospel blessing their family so much
already it's crazy! This gospel is so TRUE! The Young women in the family have
so much light in them after going to Young Women’s you could put them in a dark
room and they would illuminate everything with their smiles! They haven't ever
been told who they truly are and how much they are worth and now they have!
They are glowing!!!!
Heavenly Father is continually
guiding us even when we don't see it. Good Luck with school everyone you are
gonna rock!
I love you and am so grateful for
all of your letters and love:)
The Church
is TRUE
BE STEADFAST
IN CHRIST:)
