Mom!!!!!
Thank you so so so sooooooooooooooooo much for the package!! I absolutely LOVED it! Thanks for adding in the extra stuff! So.....
Guess what??!?!?!?!?!?! Next week is mothers day and I get to skype!!!! I'm not sure exactly what time but most likely around 3:30 pm!! I really can't wait to see and talk to everyone! I hope all the family will be able to be there!! Anyways, this week was soo slow. All of our appointments fell through so we did lots of tracting. 12 hours to be exact. 4 hours one day! I got crazy tan lines on the tops of my feet. Haha! We were able to meet with some of our investigators though! One of them being a lady named Joanne. She is amazing! The moment we sat down on her couch she wanted to know everything about the church! It was great! I love appointments like that,where their asking tons of questions and just wanting more! We also had a lesson with Mike and Stephanie!! They seriously are so wonderful! Mike told us last time that he was envious of our faith and that he wanted to come closer to Christ. And last time we invited him to be baptized when he knows that the things were teacing him are true. He said he would!!! He is so great! He asked us if we would call him every so often to remind him to pray. His wife is a little hesitant to everything. She grew up Catholic but she seems to be opening up a bit more as we keep meeting with them :) So... You know how last week Beverly was on date to be baptized? Well, on Thursday she completely broke down in tears and told us that she just can't make a decision and that she feels hopeless and like she's wasting our time. I kinda fell apart too...... I love her so much and I know that she knows this gospel is true. She knows it. She has felt the spirit so many times and she loves coming to church. We have tried discerning her needs and she just comes up with something else. She has a mental disorder and I think that's part of the reason why it's so hard for her to make a decision. We are not giving up on her though. Another lesson we had this week was with Kiara. She's the girl that is 18 and has been investigating the church for almost 2 years now and wants to be baptized! She has the strongest testimony of a nonmember that i've heard from such a young person. We kinda set a date with her but she just broke up with her boyfriend who was the one that was going to baptize her but now she's having a hard time getting over him and trying to figure out who will baptize her now. She's a strong girl though and knows the church is true as well. It's just that Satan keeps getting in the way of all the people we are teaching. I really don't like him very much. This past week Sister Schrishuhn and I were told that we were going to teach the Book of Mormon Study Class... I'm pretty sure that I learned more from that class than anybody else there. We disected each verse in 4 chapters and I had know idea how much I was missing as I was just reading it. I love that I am constantly learning each day! I can feel my testimony growing and it's just a really great feeling :) Oh! So, a couple nights ago I woke up at 2 in the morning with awful stomach pains like I did that one time. It was horrible!! I only got 4 hours of sleep that night and Sister Schrishuhn said that I was crying in my sleep. But anyways, I really hope that everything back home is going well. I loved the pictures from Weston and Wyatt! They made me tear up a little. I can't wait to see and talk to you guys on Sunday!! Please please try to get everyone there! I LOVE YOU!!! SEE YOU SOON!!!!!!!!!
