Man that is so sad to hear about Ashleigh..... she was so cool. I hope her
families takin it well. Man that is crazy.... the Lord has need for her for the
work of Salvation on the other side...
ahhhhhhhhhh I'm going to college!!!!!!! what???!??!?!?!? that's insane!!! i
love too how it said i wasn't smart enough for the major i picked haha but I'm
still in!!!! heck yes!!!!! soooo happppyyyyy. texted like 20 mish that go there
as soon as i read it!!! heck yes!!!! so excited!!
Meg your a stud way to go! and Man ready to rock Utah State together?!?!?
heck yes!!
Love this family ward! Its hard but that's OK.... we make due and sometimes
starve hahaha but its all good. So Cali has been in a huge drought this year. Least amount of rain in like 151 yrs or something. The Catholics are fasting, the
Hindus are praying and this Fast Sunday the area 70 over Cali set for our fast
for rain....... the rain came. what?!? How cool! Its been pouring buckets since too. So
we are definitely being blessed by God and he definitely is answering our
prayers! So cool to see the hand of God in our lives. That also means we get
soaked! haha alot! Luckily that north face jacket and my backpack are water
proof and work awesomely! haha so I'm stayin mostly dry.
So we gave talks yesterday for sac meeting and it went pretty well. Our
dinner calender tells the tale! We went from 2 a week to like 4 so we doubled! So that means we are slowly winning their trust and love and support!! So
exciting. We have this ward loving us. People just come up and talk for like 15
min to us about anything and everything. They love us! if only they would love
missionary work and help us out! That's OK they are busy i guess. well its not
really OK, but in there minds it is!
So cool seeing an Apostle of Christ. Man he left an Apostolic blessing on
the mission and us and you could just feel the power behind it. So cool. He's
alot shorter than I'd think, but he has one heck of a handshake haha must be all
that Spirit he has with him. One thing cool is he testified he knew the Saviors
Voice.... that's insane!! President Watkins is letting his emotions get to him alot
lately. Seems like now every time he talks, he breaks down. He used to never do
that. I guess its just cause he's getting to the end of his ropes.... so mad he
leaves 6 weeks before me..... oh well. Love him so much! He is a fantastic guy
and really perfect for this group of missionaries. We are the #1 mission in the
work..... we're told by literally everyone in the leadership that comes to us. So I'm
starting to believe it. E. Cook was blown away by all that we do and most of
his remarks were thanking us for it. So cool! CTR...... Chosen To Represent! haha
love it here.
Glad you enjoyed that MM.... here's another..... its E. Bednar's on Light. soooo
goood!
So last week we had a super good week! We worked so hard and man the work
is takin off! From what the ward council tells us, we are making friends with
inactives that HT and VT couldn't dream of making. So we are totally blessed that
were able to get into those homes and teach and testify of the Savior and
Prophecy blessings to them if they commit to the things Heavenly Father has asked
of them.
The Sacrament has become so real to me. sooo real. I Love every Sunday
because I get to feel the Spirit of Repentace and change to become more like
Christ. I love it. so good!
Sonenstahl is a champ..... literally best comp I've had. Well Ketywan was super
awesome too so idk its a toss up! but seriously we are rockin it here and loving
every second of it! So much fun and man I'm just loving it here yal. Pres is
gonna have to get a crowbar to pry me outta this ward. It ain't happenin. haha I've
learned on my mission and seeing other missionaries that you can focus on the
negatives and let em eat you alive and keep you in the dumps.... ooooorrrr you
can look just at the positives and drive em home and be so happy and love the
moment and boom way better and happier and healthier too haha love it so
much!
You guys are amazing! Love yal so much! Keep up all that you do. Don't stop
prayin for me. I'm a weak servant and need every prayer I can get to strengthen
me and help me to have the Spirit with me.
love yal so much!
Go Aggies!
