AS ZION'S YOUTH IN LATTER-DAYS

Okay first off! Everyone should know that Sister Christensen and I are safe! there has been a lot of Craziness in Milwaukee with Riots and cars and gas stations on fire! but hey,,,,,sign of the times? I suppose! ANYWAY!

     

Life is good!!!!!

UPDATE ON MISSIONARY CLUB: the youth really responded! They all took our challenge and reported on it after church!!!! So we asked a priest to issue the next challenged! he challenged everyone to invite a friend to the tri-stake pool party on friday! They were scared but SO PUMPED to do it! Cant wait to see how it goes!

Tuesday! Went on an exchange with my good friend from college Sister Quist! SHE IS WONDERFUL!! we cam out together and we ALWAYS have wanted to go on an exchange so it was GREAT to be with her and teach the gospel we both love and reflect on what we have learned since we came out!!!!!!!!! :)

Friday! Sister Christensen and I took Cami (a young woman in the ward!) out with us for the day!!! she studied with us, taught with us, tracted..you NAME it! She is tough and she did it! If the missionaries asked me to tract with them at the age of 17 i would have said "hey yeah....go pound sand.."but she just did it! She LOVES the Lord! you can tell!!!!! she plans to serve a mission the second she turns 19!

Saturday! We took out Nicole Barker (in the YSA ward) out with us for the day!!! THIS was AWESOME! We had a lot of free time and met some SOLID SOLID people including a family that lives next door to a family in the ward who we have now started teaching! SO EXCITED TO DO THAT!!!!!!!!!!!! FAMILIES!!!!!!!!! :) anyway! NICOLE is a doll and about to go off to BYU! and then plans to serve a mission!!! :)

ALL IN ALL EXCELLENT WEEK! I have been thinking a lot about the Character of Christ! And who He is and who He expects me to be!  I have thought a lot about His personality! I have thought for a big chunk of my life that perfection means robotic and stiff! ... not the case though!!! Christ has the most personality of ANYONE! He is enthusiastic, empathetic, sincere...you name it! Why else would we strive to develop Christ-like attributes!? 

ANYWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love you all.....and have realized i use FAR too many exclamation points...but hey...what are you gonna do?? :) 

LOVE YOU!
