Mom!
I had the greatest week! So, as you know, Sister Nicoll came
and found me! It ruled! So here's the story.
Sister Lawson and I work
with a 23 year old girl who is seriously the most gorgeous and hilarious
girl ever. Remind you of anyone you know? (Me)
anywho, she has been taking the missionary lessons for like 14 years.
Her dad is a member, her mom is not, but they are the coolest people of
my life. They're the ones that got us the San Antonio shirts. The dad
reminds me of a mix between Robin Williams and
Clint Eastwood. We absolutely love them! They are family to me!
Anyways, sister Lawson and I were doing weekly planning and deciding
what we should do to help this girl to progress. We fasted and prayed
for 24 hours and studied super hard for the lesson we
were planning to teach her that night. We both felt strongly that we
should invite her to be baptized this coming weekend. That's nuts right?
We were way nervous and rather skeptical but we decided to trust God,
who has ALWAYS been a God of miracles. He can
part the Red Sea, so I'm pretty sure He can testify to this young woman
that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is true right? So
we taught her lesson one and had the most powerful lesson of my entire
mission! She's heard this lesson countless
times, but for some reason God had this specific time planned to be a
turning point in her life. She accepted to be baptized and is pumped to
do so! Her dad was crying, this was a long time coming. It was amazing!
After we left we jammed to MOTAB all the way
home!
As we walked up to our apartment there was a creepy white car
parked right outside our door and the lady inside had her phone hanging
out the window as if she was recording us. It took awhile for me to
recognize that it was Amanda Bedford! Seconds after
spotting her I saw sister Nicoll, the worlds greatest young woman's
leader/ handbag saleswoman! I hugged her probably fifty six times. It
was so exciting to see her! It made me so incredibly happy, especially
because I got to tell her about the baptismal date
we were able to set with one of my best friends!
So many awesome things
happened this week, but I have to have a nerd war with my district so I
don't have time to tell the rest. I hope Goodes is okay! Oh, and the
picture of me in the tree is from when a member
was teaching us parcore. It was so much fun! Anyways, I love you all
dearly! Work hard, pray hard!
