HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!
I have something to send you but i haven't made it to the post office yet. It's my companions birthday tomorrow
so we spent all of today doing the things she wanted to do, which is
good cause its been really fun! This has been an awesome
week! We started this Book of Mormon challenge in our zone to see who
could pass out the most book of Mormons in a week so we'll see how that
goes.
I don't have much time but I do want to highlight one miracle this
week. So we went to our investigator Judy's
house this week with the intentions of setting a baptismal date of August 9th
with her. We taught her the plan of salvation and she had so many great
questions! At the end of the lesson we extended the date and she
flopped down on the couch. I thought she
had passed out. She's really goofy that way. She was in shock! She was
like isn't that a little soon? What do I need to do before then? She is
so willing and ready to change. I absolutely love her!
We spent a lot of
time tracting this week and it was so hot
that after awhile we just got deliriously tired. Sister sparrow said
something really funny to me and I could not stop laughing. I just
laughed and laughed and even when the guy came to the door to talk to us I was dying laughing. Then everything time i tried
to hold it in i would have one of those weird laugh explosions and
laugh some more. The guy invited us back though so that was good!
On Saturday I was asked to speak in sacrament meeting. I spoke on faith. We had
interviews with our mission president this
week and the first thing he said in my interview was "The Lord is
hastening His work. We are not. It is His work. Will you keep pace?" you
all know how competitive I am, so of course that just got me fired up! I
am so grateful and humbled to be part of the
Lord's work. I know that this is the most important thing. I wish I would have understood that more growing up. I could have been a much better
member missionary and example to my peers and siblings.I have learned
so much and I learn more everyday. I love my savior
and I know He lives. Happy birthday mom! I love you so so much. You are
the greatest gift God had to give and I'm glad He gave you to me. Stay
sweet! work hard, pray hard!
