Slenderman

Okay, guys, Oregon in the fog is literally the game Slenderman.... so spooky!!!!! But also kinda cool. 


Anyway, we put Sharon on date!!!!!!!!!!!!!


We took her to a baptism Saturday morning and she LOVED it!!! After the baptism, sharon told us she hoped the gal being baptized felt the spirit as strongly as she did. She started tearing up and telling us she needed to get baptized. It was so cool, she is so prepared. Her baptism is December 14th, if everything goes well. Gosh she is so cool. 


We also started teaching a new person!!! Her name is Shandy so now all the people we are teaching have 'S' names, lol. 


We also had Zone conference AND the new missionary hand book is out!!!!!!!!!! Its been an exciting week. 


Also here's a quote from Pres Monson that kinda slapped me upside the head:


“The greatest decision I ever made in my life was to give up something I dearly loved to the God I loved even more. He has never forgotten me for it.”


I just LOVE that. Cuz you best believe I sacrificed a lot to come on a mission, including my mental health, lol. 
But God is aware of our sacrifices and and he knows our struggles and he CARES!! he does. Even tho the way he shows it kinda hurts. 


Love y'all!!!

Haha yeah I'm getting a little stir-crazy...  And its raining........ Things have been good tho. We started teaching a new lil honey, almost put them on date, and could possibly drop them today, And We have virtual lessons with members every night which cures my depression I love the members here ❤  Not much else has been happening... Ashley is AMAZING and progressing so well!! She just eats up everything we teach her, and is SO excited! I love her, shes also pretty hilarious.  Nothing can stop the work of God!!!  We were supposed to get transfer calls last night.... but that never happened. Idk what's going on... ever, it's fine. I could get yeeted outta B-ville on thursday or I could stay for 2 more months. Or all the missionaries will get sent home. Idk man.

ONE YEAR???????

Image
Well, folks, we made it -- ONE YEAR!!! Honestly never thought it would happen, but God is so good, and He loves us too much to let us fail.  The work is going well, we found out one of the less-active members we're working with may not be a member at all! He cant remember if he actually ever was baptized. So that's kinda exciting, in a weird way. Probably not something I should be excited about  Thoughts: I think sending sis Mecham home was a real eye-opener for me, and kind of a reality check. Like missions don't last forever. Going into a church and having everyone instantly love me because of a tag, will eventually end. And even at Walmart we get stopped every time by people who want to talk to us and thank us for our service -- members and non-members! I'm gonna miss that.  Also, training is wack. Ive never been so aware of my weaknesses. also My child is a bit of a rebel, so I think the Lord is giving me a taste of my own medicine! Lol. BUT I FREAKING LOVE HERA. Sh...
