well! It happened! IT SNOWED!!!!!!!!! and when it rains it pours! THERE IS SNOW EVERYWHERE! hahaha its fun!!!!! its really fun to watch your companion (who has never seen falling snow might I add) just look out the window the WHOLE time during studies! hhahaha SO FUNNY! I may or may not have thrown snowballs at her! She doesn't really know how to make them so I have the advantage!
Well I don't have a ton of time! BUT elder Schwitzer of the 70 came to our mission this week! HE IS A SERVANT OF THE LORD and you can't deny it! He was funny, he was captivating, he used parables and he was passionate about all he had prepared to talk with us about!!!! it was great! I felt the spirit so strongly!!!
BIG NEWS: SHELBY AND ABBIE were baptized on Saturday the 21st! MY little sisters birthday!!! WHOOP WHOOP! (welcome to adulthood mal mal) haha and also my grandma wise's birthday! I feel her helping me in my missionary service everyday! :)
But the baptism went well! Shelby and abbie were so happy!!!!! :) the ward all came and the speakers were well prepared! I was so pleased but more importantly the Lord was pleased! He is pleased! I know that this is what He wants for them! And then their father (who is not yet a member) said the closing prayer and it was such a great and genuine prayer! I know that he cares for his daughters! :)
IT WAS SO CRAZY TO SEE PICTURES OF MY SISTER WITH JESSICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for those who don't know! Jessica is a girl that we have been teaching for some time! She is supposed to be baptized in 2 weeks! and she went to BYU and BYUI to see some friends this week and she met up with my sister, Madison! She sent pictures to a member and he showed me! I WAS SO EXCITED! She thought maddy and I were twins! Almost but not quite! hahaha :) I love my sister! It was weird to see my two worlds collide! :) ahhahhaha
Well I best be goin! FOR THERE IS A WORK FOR ME TO DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but I LOVE this work! I thought about it! And we were walking in snow that was almost knee deep and it was COLD and I was in a skirt!..........talkin about all sorts of uncomfortable! hahaha and I just thought "I wouldn't rather be ANYWHERE else!!! I love these people! I love this mission! I love my mission president! I love my companion! I love my s upportive family! I love my supportive friends! BUT most importantly I love my Savior! and I love His Father! Who is also my Father!
I KNOW that this is the true church! It kinda hit me today like a load of bricks! I was listening to a talk by Jeffery R Holland! And he was talking about how this church is true and there is no way it could have been man made and I just thought "Woah.....he has got a point there! Woah! This is true! WOAH!" it was awesome!!!!! Its so true! And I am reminded of that everyday! I love you all!
Because I have been Given much I too must give!!!!
