Family and Friends!!
on monday we went over to a less actives house to do our laundry
and do some crafts with her. She makes jean bags out of old pants, so she
showed us how to make them..sister pead and I worked on one..it made me laugh
to see how they totally showed our personalities! I will have to send pictures
home then I finish it! We also had an awesome lesson with sister W.
we talked about baptism and why we are baptized. during the lesson I had
a thought to do an object lesson with her because I just didn't feel like what
we were saying was clicking..so l turned over to sister pead to tell and she
knew the one I wanted to do! it was really cool how the spirit was able to keep
both sister pead and I on the same page so the lesson could flow! We did
the water and pepper object lesson and she loved it and it totally clicked for
her! it was totally cool! we were able to set a baptism date for her to work
towards! it was so awesome!!
Tuesday!
on tuesday we met with our date set, sister K. it was great!
we were able to go over the baptism interview questions so she can be 100%
prepared for her interview. She is so excited about it! She told us about
as she has been thinking about her baptism, she can totally see how God has
lead her to accepting the restored gospel! the spirit was super strong!
Heavenly Father totally has a plan for EACH of us and knows what we need so
that we can become who he knows we can. Each of us has a different plan,
yet we can learn and help others progress..its totally cool to experience this
everyday. July 12 is gunna be SWEET!!
on a more funny note..that morning we got a text from the
prior lake elders that said: Happy First of July! Of course it made sister pead
and I laugh cause the 1st of the month is when we get more miles..and in June
we were in the negatives! We replied that we were celebrating with cake and ice
cream...the elders then said: are you for real!?! and then sent: OH CANADA!
that is when it hit sister pead and I that today was totally Canada day and
elder Foggin is from Canada!
Wednesday, sister pead and I did some service. We helped
sister K pull/cut the weeds or tress around her fence..it was intense! then we
did some more service for another investigator. I LOVE doing service, it makes me so happy! we
do the most random things for people!! but that is also how we can feel the
Saviors love for them.
We had our district meeting on thursday...it was good.
My favorite part of the meeting was our white-handbook training..it was
on handling firearms of all kinds. it made me laugh! the elders had drawn
pictures of all the kinds of firearms that are against the white-handbook as
well as found pictures of stories from the scriptures of prophets and fire,
like Elijah setting the alter on fire! ....and then committed us to have a safe
4th of july! it was really funny! We also had some great lessons and were
able to get sister W to commit to come to church! so that was awesome!
Friday!
Oh, man! friday was a serious party! I have never ate so much hamburgers and hot
dogs in my life! The party started at the 12 at the first members house,
the M family. They had us and the Elder over for a BBQ. it was fun..the
elders and us brought pictures of our past lives to show each other. it
was cool to get to know Elder Foggin and Elder Carbonall better. then the
party moved to the C home..were we partied with them and the G families! Fun
story! sister pead and I were driving to the C home and in the park we saw the
elders sitting at a table playing there "nerd game" magic...then they
finally came to the house we totally called them out on it..they said they were
"weekly planning" I said: coolbeans, I didn't know that weekly
planning came in a magic box! hahahaha! their faces were red! it was really
funny! We ate, laughed, did back-flips, watched fireworks, and the Elders
taught sister Pead and I how to play magic. So, magic is like Pokemon for
adults..all I could do is laugh cause in what world was I sitting at a picnic
table while some Elder was teaching me how to attach sister Pead! it was a lot
of fun!
Saturday!
it was really weird not to have a baptism today...it was the
first saturday in a month that we were not at a baptism. our area has been on
fire! We were able to sat busy though, we helped do more sand-bagging and
teaching. We met with our recent-convert, so that was good. we have
not seen her in a while and so it was good to catch up and see how she and her
family was doing.
Sunday!
it was a really great fast-sunday! We had 4 investigators at
church! it was really cool to see how different our ward looked! half the
people there were recent converts or investigators! it was really cool to see
the progress and missionary work that has happened in our ward. Siste pead and
I did some finding that afternoon and we met a lady who had the UGLIEST cats in
the world! it was so hard not to laugh!!
Well that was a sum up of my life this week! Thanks for all
the love and support! I will send some pictures too!

LOVE!
