Well.. This week has been a bit rough. Sister Horrocks and I are still
feeling pretty terrible. We went to the doctors on Friday and should have the
results back either today or tomorrow. We are tired, our bodies ache, we are
nauseous, we are just all over the place. We got blessings of healing.. and I have felt
somewhat better.. but last night and today my stomach has been killing me and I
have no strength. I hope that they do find something wrong with us so that we
can know how to solve what is wrong. :/ Anyways.. that is my sad story of the
week.
So, for good news. A lot of good things happened this weekend.
------ got the Priesthood yesterday :) He is doing great. He loves coming
to church and like during sunday school you can see him reading ahead and really
wanting to learn. Hopefully we can plan a temple trip and go up with him and
some members of the ward. That will be fun! I just love him! He is so
great.
On wednesday, it was raining all day! But, Sister Horrocks and I had
scheduled to tract.. so we still did. I felt like a true missionary out in the
rain knocking doors. Hahah. It turned out good though! We met a guy , he has a desire to learn. He had
a date for the 30th but didn't make it to church. We have taught him twice now
and he seems to really be enjoying it. he's working on his prayers and so
hopefully things with progress with him too!
Then, our bishop referred us to teach this lady. She came to
church yesterday too! She wants to learn more and we are hoping that she will be
baptized soon too!
THEN! Brittany whatley.. my friend in the ward.. gave us a referral, too!
WOW!!!! I've never had so many referrals. It's great. Although Sister Horrocks
and I feel like complete crap.. and have been struggling... We are trying to
push forward... and blessings are coming.
Guess what family! I ate bear this weekend. The hawken family shot a
bear... and they made soup and bear jerkey and I ate it. I didnt like the soup..
but I liked the jerkey. I can't believe I ate it hahahah.
Nick wrote me this week. I just love that kid. :) He is such a good
missionary. His letters lift me up. They really do. He is so great. I can't wait
to hang out with him after I get home from the mission.. it'll be fun to see how
we have both grown.
Also, ------ that I have been working with.. she came to church last week
and this week. How great! I love seeing people come out!!!!!! I love serving the
Lord.
I'm so grateful for the gospel, and the church. I'm so lucky to have a
testimony and to see it grow daily. I'm so grateful for trials I've had. They
have made me stronger. I love the plan of salvation. I love the Book of Mormon.
I know Joseph Smith was called to be a Prophet of God.
I'm so grateful for a loving family.
LOVE YOU ALL!
MISS YOU ALL, TOO :)
