Hey y'all!
I haven't found shoes yet, all the good places to go are
kinda far away so it might be awhile before I get some... Oh well for now I'll
just rock the black and brown ones. Yah I'll just pin the grey skirt.
I knew the vitamins question would come up in this e-mail
so I started taking them this week :) While I was in bed I think she just did
some studying, I'm not really sure haha.
Answers to some of your questions...
On p-day we do our personal and companion study but we
don't do training and we usually do our laundry during those study hours.
Laundry is going good, still haven't dyed anything the
color its not supposed to be! I'd say I'm doing pretty good! :) Yah we get fed
fairly regularly which is so nice because I don't eat all that well when we
don't, it's not good I need to be better about eating an actual meal as opposed
to just a pb&h. We just don't have a lot of time so I gotta make it quick,
but I do make sure I have a veggie or fruit every meal. Still no real crazy
food... I'm hoping for squirrel before I come home! We have an hour and a half
now on the computer, they just changed it before we only had an hour.
This week was pretty great! We picked up what I think is
going to be a pretty golden investigator, his name is Gideon. We taught him for
the first time on Wednesday, we started off with a church tour just showing him
around the building and ended in the chapel. We then taught the restoration of
the gospel in the chapel, holy cow talk about spiritual high! The chapel is
where it's at! The spirit was so strong. He asked a lot of good questions and
said he felt like he could really relate to the prophet Joseph Smith and
wanting to know the truth for himself. After our lesson he texted us and said
thanks again for that. It was awesome! We're meeting with him tomorrow, I'm
excited I think it's going to go really well. He's another one to add to the
prayer list.
Oralia and Reynel came to the Saturday afternoon and
Sunday morning sessions at the church (they were our only investigators who
came).
Which if she could only come to two those are definitely
the two I would have picked! Pretty much every talk that was given had
something I'd been praying about for her and I hope was something that touched
her and gave her the courage to make some changes in her life. Elder Bednar's
was right on the money, he talked about the law of chastity so simply and so
straight forward, it was awesome! And then all the different talks about
obedience and marriage. She really enjoyed it and said "You're coming
Wednesday and we're talking about conference."
So hopefully something will be able to change there soon!
You can always count on general conference to get the message across! I love
it! :)
There's really no change with Larry right now... And we
haven't seen Tasha for a couple of weeks. We might go by one more time just to
check up on her but I don't know, I think her time will be eventually but not
right now.
No I haven't really heard much about the new leadership councils...
I have gone to a leadership council meeting so maybe they're already implementing
it here. I'm not really sure to tell you the truth.
I absolutely loved conference! Seriously it's like
Christmas x10 for missionaries it's so great! I really like President
Uchtdorf's talk about light, I also liked Elder Hollands, they were all good
really but those two were probably my favorite. We watched the first session at
the Challen's home (they're like my adopted family away from home, I LOVE
THEM!!), second was at the church, third church, and fourth was at the Ward's
home. I definitely like watching conference from home more, it's a lot more
comfy.
P-day was fun this week and last. Last week we went to
the aquarium as a district which was cool! And then this week most of our zone
got together and played ultimate frisbee, which I used to not like (because I
sucked) but I've gotten a lot better and it's actually really fun! I think I'm
going to join an intramural team when I get back to school.
Well I think that about wraps it up for the week. I'm
sending a package home hopefully within the next couple of days just with some
stuff that’s just taking up space in my suitcase really.
Thanks for the continued love, support, and prayers, it
keeps me going! I love and miss y'all!
