Hello Everyone!!!
Buckle down and get ready to read the goodness that is about to unfold!
Starting at P-DAY last week. After I had sent out the email to you all, I finished my laundry, ate lunch, then me and my Companions made our way to the Temple! It was so awesome! You all know how I love the Temple. This day was even more special for me cus it was my 11 month mark for being endowed. This month is my one year mark, It was super special to be in the house of the Lord as a Missionary! I couldn't hold back the tears of love and thankfulness that I felt for the Lord and from the Lord. Go to the Temple EVERYONE!!!

Friday getting back into the whole swing of things again was not a big adjustment, but I did recieve a SURPRISE package. I have an idea of who it came from cus of the handwriting but I have to say that my whole district LOVED the ricecripy treats! I am still eating everything, I just felt the love and wanted to thank whomever sent the wonderful awesome deliciousness!

We had a lot of study time today. So I got a lot of reading done from the Book of Mormon! I also prepared an awesome talk on the Atonement for Sacrament meeting the next day. My personal study on the Atonement was out of this world. How I love the Savior and Everything that he went through for us!

Sunday!!! Boy, I woke up feeling so nervous and ill to my stomach that I didn't eat Breakfast, I couldn't. I knew why. I knew I was going to be called on to Speak in Scarament. I was feeling the spirit tell me that I needed to be ready to hear my name. Well of course the spirit doesn't lie. I was called over the pulbit and I gave my 5 min talk. The spirit was overwhelming. I love being guided as much as I have been. I am growing here and I know that the Lord is making me the missionary he wants me to be,. I know I am not done growing, but I love recongizing the beginning of it all. I got super sick today., I think it was the chicken I ate at lunch. It was awful but we are told here that Diharia is out best friend. No! We are not BFF's. It was aweful! But i am super better now. Too scared to eat something as my stomach doesn't feel as strong!

Happy Birthday Uncle Paul. Today we did a role play again. With our investigator Dennis. We prayed before we taught. We went in. He read the whole BoM. and told us what he thought. We were teaching him about the Plan of Salvation , cus his wife had died a few years ago. and while we were teaching him he tells us that he believes in the Resurrection! That as Jesus was ress. we will be too. The spirit was so stong, and was speaking to me that I turned it into the best thing ever. With the spirits help I invited him to follow Chirst by Being baptised! With tears running down my face and HIS face, he ACCPETED! If in this email there is anything I want you to remember. . that Jesus Christ wants all his children to return back to him!! It was such a great experience! Us sisters were on a spiritual high all day! Such a great day!!
